Filip Kubski, (born June 15, 1987) better known as NEO, is a Polish professional player of the Counter-Strike series who is currently the Entry Fragger for Virtus.pro. NEO is considered one of the best players in Counter-Strike history[1] and one of the "Golden Five" group of Polish CS players who won many tournaments with a number of different esports teams.[2] He has also played for AGAiN, Universal Soldiers, ESC Gaming, Frag eXecutors, Vitriolic, Wicked eSports, Meet Your Makers, and Pentagram G-Shock. Kubski has been playing professionally since 2004.[3]
Neo is considered by both players and fans to be one of the best Counter-Strike players of all time. In addition to being a great aimer and highly intelligent player, Kubski is also highly regarded for his mastery of Counter-Strike 1.6's in-game movement. His ability to perform difficult movements and access areas of maps that are unreachable by most[4][5] make him unpredictable and difficult to counter. In 2010, HLTV.org users voted Kubski the best Counter-Strike player of the previous decade.[6] He also won the eSports Award for eSports Player of the Year in 2007 and 2008, and was rated by HLTV.org as the best player of 2011[7]
Virtus.pro and NEO appeared in the Intel Extreme Masters Season X - Katowice World Championship in 2016.[8][9]
