Danylo “s1zzi” Vinnyk has the highest AWP hit rate among qualifying snipers in 2026, according to statistics published by Limitless Esports. The 16-year-old B8 AWPer leads the ranking with 56.42%, ahead of Rafael “saffee” Costa and Özgür “woxic” Eker.
The selection includes players with at least 500 AWP shots at MVP events and Major Stages 1 and 2 in 2026, giving the ranking a significant sample from high-level competition.
Top five AWP hit rates in 2026
- Danylo “s1zzi” Vinnyk — 56.42%
- Rafael “saffee” Costa — 54.82%
- Özgür “woxic” Eker — 53.85%
- Dzhami “Jame” Ali — 53.78%
- Usukhbayar “910” Banzragch — 53.37%
The difference between first and fifth place is just over three percentage points, while s1zzi holds a 1.60-point advantage over saffee in second.
s1zzi leads experienced tier-one AWPers
The result stands out because s1zzi is still playing his first season at the highest level. B8 added the Ukrainian sniper on loan from Spirit Academy in February 2026, and only a few months later he made his Major debut at IEM Cologne Major 2026.
B8 progressed through the first two stages of the Major before eventually finishing 15th–16th. s1zzi was particularly important during the run and also finished the tournament as the leader in total AWP kills with 201, ahead of several more established snipers.
His position in the hit-rate ranking puts him above much more experienced AWPers. saffee currently represents paiN, while woxic remains one of the main individual pieces of Aurora. Jame continues to play the sniper role for PARIVISION, and 910 holds the AWP for The MongolZ.
Several biggest AWP names miss the top five
The ranking does not include some of the most prominent snipers in Counter-Strike, with Mathieu “ZywOo” Herbaut, Ilya “m0NESY” Osipov and Dmitry “sh1ro” Sokolov all outside the top five.
However, hit rate should not be treated as a direct ranking of the best AWPers. The statistic only measures how frequently AWP shots connect, while overall impact can also depend on positioning, opening kills, damage, survival and the number of attempts a player takes.
The minimum requirement of 500 shots also means the comparison focuses on players with a substantial AWP sample at the selected events rather than every sniper who competed during the season.
For s1zzi, the statistic adds another strong individual result to his first year in tier-one Counter-Strike. Despite being the youngest player in the top five, the B8 sniper currently leads the field in pure AWP accuracy under the selected filter.
