Flouzer secures series win with powerful 4k at IEM Beijing 2026 qualifiers
The 18-year-old Russian entry fragger continues his meteoric rise in professional Counter-Strike 2 with a clutch multi-kill performance for Nuclear TigeRES.
Ilya “Flouzer” Selifonov just reminded the CS2 world why entry fraggers with ice in their veins are worth building a roster around. The 18-year-old delivered a decisive 4-kill performance to clinch a series victory for Nuclear TigeRES during the IEM Beijing 2026 Global Qualifiers.
A 4k that sealed the deal
In competitive Counter-Strike 2, a 4k, where a single player eliminates four of the five opposing players in a round, is the kind of play that can flip an entire series on its head. That’s exactly what Flouzer delivered when his team needed it most.
Nuclear TigeRES had additional qualifier matches scheduled for September 2 and September 4, meaning this series win was a critical stepping stone rather than a final destination.
