M80 vs. fnatic breaks CS2 round record

The Anubis affair went to 71 rounds to break the recently set new Counter-Strike 2 record for most rounds played in a single map.

reck and slaxz- got 58 kills each in the grueling first map against fnatic

A new record has been set for most rounds played on a single map of Counter-Strike 2 on HLTV.

M80 and fnatic played a staggering 71 rounds in their octuple-overtime affair on Anubis in their group stage match at ESL Pro League Season 20 on Wednesday to break the previous high of 64 rounds.

That only stood for two weeks after it was set by Rhyno and Zero Tenacity on Vertigo in an online Elisa Invitational Fall match on August 28.

As far as LAN matches go, the highest number of rounds previously played was 54 between TYLOO and The MongolZ in an eXTREMESLAND 2023 match that took place in January.

At Big Events, the highest number of rounds played was 42, one that was reached on five occasions, including in last week's ESL Pro League Season 20 match between Eternal Fire and Natus Vincere.

Previous CS2 overall record
Portugal Rhyno vs. Europe Zero Tenacity - 64 rounds

Previous CS2 LAN record
China TYLOO vs. Mongolia The MongolZ - 54 rounds

Previous CS2 Big Event record first set by
Europe MOUZ vs. Russia Cloud9 - 42 rounds

CS2 maps with most rounds played
1. United States M80 vs. Europe fnatic in ESL Pro League S20 - 71 rounds (LAN)
2. Portugal Rhyno vs. Europe Zero Tenacity in Elisa Fall 2024 - 64 rounds (Online)
3. Russia PARIVISION vs. Russia Aurora in ECL S46 Europe - 60 rounds (Online)
4. Russia FORZE YNG vs. Europe ARCRED in ESEA-A S48 Europe - 60 rounds (Online)
5. Sweden Johnny Speeds vs. Ukraine kONO in United21 League S17 - 60 rounds (Online)
6. Australia sunday school vs. Australia Vantage in ESL Melbourne CQ - 58 rounds (Online)
7. Poland Permitta vs. Europe Gucci Academy in A1 League S7 - 54 rounds (Online)
8. China TYLOO vs. Mongolia The MongolZ in eXTREMESLAND 2023 - 54 rounds (LAN)
9. Czech Republic SINNERS vs. Romania Nexus in Shuffle Masters S1 - 54 rounds (Online)
10. Poland Illuminar vs. Poland PGE Turow in European PL S6 - 53 rounds (Online)

The Counter-Strike 2 record is still some ways away from the CS:GO record, set in an 88-round map in ESL UK Premiership Season 1 by XENEX and exceL in 2015.

The map between M80 and fnatic did however match the previous all-time Big Event record, which was set by Natus Vincere and AGO in ESL Pro League Season 15 in 2022.

M80 top 5 soon

And those overtimes were by m80 clawing back most of the times because fnatic cant close out fkn rounds even with man advantage. But then again they have afro and krimz so they may not count.

Im not 100% sure this was the case for this particular game but back then around this time we had overtimes with MR10 sometimes, so it could go pretty high with less OTs in total.
