Estonian player Robin “ropz” Kool, star of Team Vitality and two-time Major champion, crashed his brand-new Porsche GT3 RS. The incident happened on the track, the car suffered severe damage, but the player himself remained unharmed.
ROPZ AND HIS PATH IN CS2
25-year-old ropz is one of the strongest and most consistent players on the global scene. His style is defined by composure and sharp discipline: he almost never gives in to emotions, making him an irreplaceable element of any team. He currently represents Vitality, who are experiencing a golden era — a LAN win streak, playoffs at IEM Dallas, and preparation for the BLAST.tv Austin Major. In a recent HLTV interview, ropz said:
We’re mentally one step ahead of many teams.
His calmness outside the game fully matches the image we see on the server.
THE CRASH ON THE TRACK: WHAT HAPPENED TO THE PORSCHE GT3 RS
On the night of September 10, Robin crashed during a track run. His Porsche GT3 RS suffered heavy damage: a crumpled front, blown tires, and deployed airbags. Photos of the car after the accident spread across the internet, and within hours ropz’s Porsche became a meme in the CS2 community.
Robin quickly commented on the situation on his Twitter:
Hey people, had a bad crash yesterday at the track. Shit happens, sometimes it ends up like that. What matters is nothing happened to me, I’m as good as I stepped in the car beforehand. Shocked for now and disappointed about it, but nothing major — we take the L and move forward.
Thus, he confirmed that he feels fine and is ready to get back to business.
CS2 COMMUNITY: SYMPATHY, SUPPORT, AND MEME REACTIONS
This event sparked a wave of comments in the CS2 community. Most fans and fellow players were relieved that Robin was fine.

Take care bro, the most important thing is that you are healthy
The official Team Vitality CS account supported him:
Take care lil bro
And commentator James Banks added:
Glad to hear you are as good as when you got in the car before, but still scary stuff
There were also jokes. Pascaluss captioned a GIF with cars:
RIP Little Porsche gone too soon…
Overall, the community agreed: a car can be fixed or replaced, the main thing is that ropz is safe.
AN ACCIDENT AS A LESSON, NOT A SETBACK
The Porsche accident was an unpleasant episode for Robin, but it’s unlikely to affect his career or preparation for upcoming tournaments. Just like on the server, ropz stayed true to his approach — don’t dramatize, accept losses, and move forward. This once again proves why he’s considered one of the calmest players in the world of CS2.
