This kind of playstyle has put him right up there as being the second-best player in terms of winning opening duels. Moreover, he often goes for aggressive opening picks. However, the CSGO veteran is known for his close quarter plays with the AWP. FalleN is mainly an AWPer, after all, and he only picks up the rifle if he has no other choice. Sitting at the second position and overtaking dupreeh by a mere 0.4%, it is kind of a surprise to see FalleN take up the #2 spot.

Being the main entry fragger alongside Emil “Magisk” Reif, the 59.4% of times that dupreeh has won an opening duel definitely make him the most reliable entry fragger on the team. The 26-year-old also has the second-highest Impact stat in his team (at 1.18), just behind his teammate Nicolai “device” Reedtz. Having 3 Majors under the belt, all with Astralis, this player was already shining in his TSM days back in 2015. Known for his extreme fragging capabilities in Astralis, it is no wonder that dupreeh makes the list. HLTV has released a Twitter post in which they specify the top 3 “players with the highest success rate in opening duels at CS:GO Major events.” Aleksandr “s1mple” Kostyliev, Gabriel “FalleN” Toledo, and Peter “dupreeh” Rasmussen all make up the list. Each team usually has a designated entry fragger, a player that is responsible for taking down the first player from the opposing team that they encounter.

When it comes to entry fragging and opening duels, the CSGO scene has numerous specialists in this role.
