Device became the best sniper of the group stage at IEM Cologne 2023

Following the group stage of IEM Cologne 2023 for CS:GO, six teams have been determined that will fight for the championship title. In this material, we will present the top 5 snipers of the past stage.

The top was formed considering the average statistics of esports athletes per game with a sniper rifle. The main criteria were the indicators of the average number of kills per round with an AWP, as well as the average amount of damage dealt.

afro

Aurélien "afro" Drapier is a French sniper representing the Fnatic club. At the group stage of IEM Cologne 2023, afro was able to show his best qualities and thus he opens our top of players with a sniper rifle. The statistics speak for themselves - on average, he dealt 35.4 damage per round with an AWP and also made 0.403 kills.

However, despite his talent and efforts, the Fnatic team, unfortunately, could not make it to the playoff of the championship. The team finished in 9th-12th place and earned $16k. Such experience in major tournaments like IEM Cologne will be useful for afro and Fnatic as a whole.
