G2 Counter-Strike 2 Captain Assesses Victory Over Liquid and Sets Personal Goals for 2026

G2 Esports Counter-Strike 2 captain Nemanja "huNter-" Kovač, in an interview at IEM Kraków 2026, commented on the team's advancement to the main stage of the tournament. The Bosnian noted that the result is more important to him than personal statistics, although his teammates did appreciate his contribution.

Post-Match Analysis

• Mirage (Victory): Nemanja was satisfied with his impact.

  "As my teammates say, the old man can still do it," joked the esports athlete, but added that the numbers on the scoreboard are secondary for him.

• Inferno (Defeat): The captain took responsibility for the defeat, calling the attack "terrible" due to his poor calls. To reset, the team went outside, discussed their mistakes, and decided to forget about the map before the decider.
• Anubis (Victory): G2 was leading 9:3 but allowed their opponents to come back. HuNter- explained this by saying the opponents simply out-aimed them in the defense, despite good preparation for that side during practice.

The Captain's Evolution

Speaking about his plans for the 2026 season, huNter- emphasized the need for balance. His main goal is to become a stable in-game leader (IGL) who combines quality tactical decisions with high individual skill.

"I want to be better than I was last season... That kind of balance is present in every strong in-game leader," Kovač concluded.

Conclusion

The victory over Liquid (2:1) guaranteed G2 Esports a spot in the group stage (Group Stage). For the updated roster, this is the first serious test of the season, and the captain admitted that the gameplay currently looks "a bit sloppy," but that's normal for the start of the year.
