5 best CS: GO pros who play with a left-handed player model

Counterstrike Global Offensive (CS: GO) is one of the most played first-person shooter titles in the world. The Global Offensive iteration has brilliantly held the legacy of the game and continues to do so. CS: GO has a flourishing competitive scene with top-level players competing against each other at major tournaments.

Some professional players feed on the pressure to produce some breathtaking performances. While every player is talented and skilful, they have unique ways of playing the game.

Although a few players keep changing between their view models, these are the five best professional players who have used the left-handed player model in the past.
