Ax1le Wins IEM Summer 2021 Most Valuable Player by HLTV
Sergey 'Ax1le' Rykhtorov once again proves to us that he is one of the key players in Gambit Esports. In a team that is considered the best in the world, there cannot be more or less important players, since the whole team acts harmoniously like a Swiss watch, but Ax1le has shown more than once how in desperate situations he can single-handedly turn the tide of a round, turning it into a victory...
Today we published a material in which we showed some video replays. Ax1le also appeared there, of course. If you missed our replays, then we invite you to familiarize yourself with what happened in the semifinals against G2 Esports and the grand final against OG.
After such moments, it is not at all surprising that Sergey receives the awards of a valuable player.
By the way, Ax1le completed only 3 of them with a rating less than one for 15 maps played within the framework of the last Intel Extreme Masters Summer 2021. The match against Astralis became the quintessence of Sergey Rykhtorov's performances at IEM Summer 2021 - he finished the match with the participation of the Danes with a rating of 1.81.
Ax1le shared his impressions of the received award from HLTV and told how the team manages to maintain such a game shape for a long time:
It's incredible. This is the second MVP award. Two years ago, I could not imagine that it was possible, that I could become an MVP twice in a row.
We focused on the mental side of preparation because it is very important to us. When we are under stress, we do everything faster than necessary. Because of this, we make a lot of mistakes.
Gambit Esports took first place at Intel Extreme MastersSummer 2021 and received the main cash prize of $ 100,000.
