What happened on Anubis?
Before going into the game, M80 and FNATIC were already considered to be quite neck-to-neck in terms of caliber on Anubis, making it anyone’s map. M80 won the pistol round in the first half, but FNATIC answered back, tying the map 6-6. The next half was a mirror image of the first with M80 shooting back on gun rounds, eventually taking the game to overtime - this is where things got crazy.
Overtime was a bloody back-and-forth between the two teams, constantly battling it out to reach map point, only to be denied by the other team in the subsequent round. With fatigue slowly but surely kicking in, someone was bound to make a blunder, which is why M80 was able to close it out 37-34. The funny part is that, simultaneously, MOUZ’s match against Imperial was also being broadcast - it had started after Anubis kicked off, and concluded before M80 secured the map, not even the win!
Fans also got to see bathroom breaks taking place in the middle of the map, something that has been traditionally reserved after one map concludes and before the next begins. Overall, the map lasted almost 3 hours, and social media was exploding with fans reacting to what they were witnessing. One fan wrote on X (formerly Twitter): “My friends and family miss me, but I told them ‘I’ll just watch one map before seeing you’ and I’m a man of my word.”
Before this game, the CS2 world record for the longest map ever played was set during the Elisa Fall Invitational 2024. It was Zero Tenacity versus Rhyno where, just M80 versus FNATIC, their first map, Vertigo, went insanely deep into overtime with Rhyno winning 34-30. However, if we talk specifically about LAN tournaments, the world record was held by TYLOO versus The MongolZ at eXTREMESLAND 2023, which concluded with the latter winning 28-20.

CS2 came as an update for CS: GO, but it was also an entirely new game in the Counter-Strike series. It brought a variety of new features while keeping the essence of the game and all the elements that made fans fall in love with the series.
