Team n0thing Wins Ludwig CS Minor Streamer Event
Popular streamer Ludwig Ahgren just pulled off his first Counter-Strike 2 event, and it’s safe to say it went pretty well. The Ludwig CS Minor brought together former pros, content creators, and streamers for a very fun and action-packed day of Counter-Strike. Here’s what happened at the event.
Ludwig Hosts CS2 Tournament with a Twist
Ludwig’s tournament featured four teams, which were each led by a captain. Former Counter-Strike pros and content creators n0thing, shroud, fl0m, and AustinCS each got to pick their own squad through a team draft.
They got to choose between 16 streamers and content creators, with big names like StableRonaldo, CouRageJD, Valkyrae, and Ludwig himself in the mix. Once the rosters were locked in, all 20 players showed up to the venue to compete in a LAN setting.
JustHarry, Hugo Byron, and launders were on the desk to commentate the action. These are the guys you’d normally see casting at a CS2 Major, so having them at a streamer event was a very welcome touch.

n0thing’s Team Takes the Win
After the four teams competed in a group stage, the two teams that came out of it alive were Team n0thing and Team fl0m. As a result, both teams faced off in a Best of 3 grand final. n0thing’s squad ended up taking the win with a clean 2-0, winning on Nuke and Ancient.
The winning five included:
- Jordan “n0thing” Gilbert
- Aiden “AimCalvin” Calvin
- Nick “Yingling” Yingling
- Jack “CouRageJD” Dunlop
- Christian “Nokokopuffs” Feliciano
The event didn’t feature a prize pool for the participants. Instead, each player on the winning team walked away with a CS2 knife skin as their grand prize.
A Surprisingly Polished Event
Ludwig is no stranger to hosting these small-scale events. However, for a first-time CS2 event held in a pretty small room, the production quality was genuinely very impressive. The stream was smooth and looked clean.
It was also great having launders, Harry, and Hugo commentating the matches. Ludwig’s good friend and manager Slime also chimed in, providing a great experience to fans who weren’t too familiar with Counter-Strike.
Overall, it was really cool to see gaming and streaming communities cross over like this. Counter-Strike fans, Ludwig fans, and casual viewers all had a reason to tune in, and it was a breath of fresh air.
We and thousands of other fans are already asking for a second edition, and props to Ludwig and his team for making it a success.
