With the arrival of Estonian player ropz and the consistent form of ZywOo, the team achieved incredible results: over 75% win rate in the past three months, a streak of six consecutive victories, and first place in the Valve world rankings.<\/p>\n<p>Their calendar of results is impressive: titles at ESL Pro League Season 22, IEM Katowice 2025, BLAST Open Lisbon, IEM Dallas, and a grand final appearance at BLAST Open London. Vitality ended the season with more than ten LAN trophies, making them the most decorated CS2 team of the year.<\/p>\n<p>Under the guidance of XTQZZZ, who has coached the team for more than two years, Vitality managed to find the perfect balance between individual talent and a structured, disciplined system.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-272356\" src=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/54769374973_ac3f24340d_k.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1100\" srcset=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/54769374973_ac3f24340d_k.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/54769374973_ac3f24340d_k-300x172.jpg 300w, https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/54769374973_ac3f24340d_k-1024x587.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/54769374973_ac3f24340d_k-768x440.jpg 768w, https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/54769374973_ac3f24340d_k-1536x880.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><strong>ZywOo \u2014 the symbol of French esports<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Mathieu \u201cZywOo\u201d Herbaut remains the heart and mind of this lineup. At just 24 years old, he continues to display a level of consistency unmatched by most top players. His 1.33 rating, ADR 87.4, and K\/D 1.39 prove not only his skill but also his ability to influence every round, regardless of role or map.<\/p>\n<p>ZywOo has once again shown that he is the type of player around whom championship-winning rosters can be built. His versatility and composure have been the key to Vitality\u2019s victories at major tournaments throughout the year. He is not just a fragger \u2014 he thinks two steps ahead, shaping the team\u2019s rhythm and controlling the flow of the game. For Vitality, that strategic depth sets them apart from their rivals.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-272375\" src=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/54769366204_eb0a5f0768_k.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1098\" srcset=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/54769366204_eb0a5f0768_k.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/54769366204_eb0a5f0768_k-300x172.jpg 300w, https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/54769366204_eb0a5f0768_k-1024x586.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/54769366204_eb0a5f0768_k-768x439.jpg 768w, https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/54769366204_eb0a5f0768_k-1536x878.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><strong>ropz \u2014 the key to the new lineup\u2019s stability<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The arrival of Robin \u201cropz\u201d Kool in January 2025 became one of the most successful transfers of the year. His analytical approach and precision brought more structure to Vitality\u2019s game. With a 1.15 rating, 52% headshot percentage, and strong survival rate in rounds, ropz has become the team\u2019s anchor during mid-round play.<\/p>\n<p>He fits perfectly into XTQZZZ\u2019s philosophy, combining composure with mechanical precision. His role in decisive matches \u2014 especially in the ESL Pro League Season 22 final \u2014 proved crucial. Ropz may not chase highlight plays, but his consistency and ability to read opponents give Vitality control over nearly every game they play.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"article__content grid-cards-col xl-w-100\">\n    <h3>read more<\/h3>\n    <div class=\"grid-1 gap-12 mb-12 load-parent xl-w-100\">\n        <div class=\"type3 y-red-dif hover-card card-more\">\n        <a class=\"type3__left up-to-card hover-el\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/prediction-falcons-vs-vitality-grand-final-of-esl-pro-league-season-22\">\n        <div class=\"bg-bottom-abs-short\"> <\/div>\n        <picture class=\"picture object-fit-cover\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"picture__img object-fit-cover\" src=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/54768289997_07357a3f2b_k.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Prediction for the Match Falcons vs Vitality \u2014 Grand Final of ESL Pro League Season 22\">\n        <\/picture>\n    <\/a>\n        <div class=\"type3__right main-structure p-20\">\n        <div class=\"type3__top\">\n            <a class=\"type3__title title-24 hover-el\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/prediction-falcons-vs-vitality-grand-final-of-esl-pro-league-season-22\">Prediction for the Match Falcons vs Vitality \u2014 Grand Final of ESL Pro League Season 22<\/a>\n            <a class=\"go-arrow hover-el\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/prediction-falcons-vs-vitality-grand-final-of-esl-pro-league-season-22\">\n                <div class=\"go-arrow__left go-arrow__part\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n                        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/themes\/skinclub-v3\/assets\/images\/sprites\/main.stack.svg?v=1776909902#image-blue-arrow\"><\/use>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"go-arrow__center go-arrow__part\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n                        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/themes\/skinclub-v3\/assets\/images\/sprites\/main.stack.svg?v=1776909902#image-blue-arrow\"><\/use>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"go-arrow__right go-arrow__part\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n                        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/themes\/skinclub-v3\/assets\/images\/sprites\/main.stack.svg?v=1776909902#image-blue-arrow\"><\/use>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/a><\/div>\n        <div class=\"type3__bottom blue-labels mt-auto\">\n            <div class=\"blue-label disabled\">Oct 12 2025<\/div>\n            <a class=\"blue-label\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\">News<\/a>        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2><strong>Vitality\u2019s culmination<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Team Vitality\u2019s nomination as a finalist for Esports Team of the Year is the culmination of a season where the French organization demonstrated unparalleled discipline, consistency, and tactical maturity.
