The first quarter of 2024 has already passed, along with numerous competitions, including the Major. In this article, we will highlight the top 10 leading CS2 players with the AK-47 on LAN at the moment.

When compiling the list of the best CS2 players with AK-47 on LAN in 2024, we analysed the statistics of tier-1 players who often preferred the AK-47. We took into account the total number of played maps at tier-1 events, average kills per round (KPR), average damage per round (ADR), as well as MVP awards and prize placements in tournaments. For each of these indicators, players received a certain number of points, the sum of which influenced their final position in the ranking.

#10. Evgeniy "FL1T" Lebedev

At the beginning of 2024, FL1T showed good gaming form. For example, at the Major, he repeatedly won difficult 1v5 or 1v4 clutches. His average KPR and ADR when playing with AK-47 over 31 LAN maps were 0.317 and 33.06, respectively.

#9. Valerij "b1t" Vakhovsjkyj

b1t still doesn't look as confident in his actions as before. However, it is worth noting his progress in learning English, which allows him to improve communication with teammates and gain much-needed confidence. His AK-47 statistics are quite good — 0.29 KPR and 28.19 ADR.

#8. Nikola "NiKo" Kovač

Despite appearing somewhat out of place since transitioning to CS2, NiKo is still one of the best in the world when playing with the AK-47. His average stats over 50 maps are 0.296 KPR and 31.13 ADR.

#7. Jimi "Jimpphat" Salo

Next on our list is a representative from MOUZ. Jimpphat went through the club's academy, and after joining the main lineup, he literally sweeps opponents aside. With the transition to CS2, Jimi's performance has only improved.

#6. Ismailсan "XANTARES" Dörtkardeş

Turkey's best Counter-Strike player in history deservedly occupies the sixth spot on our list. When XANTARES plays with the AK-47, he's almost unstoppable. To outplay him, opponents have to resort to tricks. XANTARES's stats with the AK-47 are 0.438 KPR and 45.85 ADR.

#5. Håvard "rain" Nygaard

rain often finishes matches with mediocre statistics, but not when it comes to rounds with the AK-47. With this weapon, Håvard is a true master. In addition, he has colossal experience, which allows him to easily anticipate his opponents' actions and outplay them.

#4. Robin "ropz" Koo

Since ropz appeared on the professional CS scene, he has consistently performed at the highest individual level. He has absolutely no problems playing with the AK-47. This is evidenced by his KPR and ADR stats over 55 LAN maps — 0.31 and 30.14, respectively.

#3. David "frozen" Čerňanský

frozen has long earned his place representing an organisation like FaZe Clan, and it has finally happened. He easily adapted to the team, as he had previously played with karrigan and ropz. David handles the tasks set before him excellently and is already one of the best players in FaZe.

#2. Justinas "jL" Lekavičius

Is it possible to become the MVP of the Major with poor performance with the AK-47? Of course not. That's why jL is ranked second in our top list. His average stats with the rifle are 0.301 KPR and 30.11 ADR. Thanks in large part to Justinas, Natus Vincere became Major champions.

#1. Danil "donk" Kryshkovets

Donk's individual performance no longer evokes enthusiastic admiration. Everyone is accustomed to his high statistical indicators. Danil is currently the best AK-47 player on LAN — 0.595 KPR and 58.82 ADR. How long will he be able to demonstrate such an exceptional level of play? Only time will tell.
