Sergey Rykhtorov began his journey in the professional CS scene in 2018. In the winter of that year, he joined 5balls, but struggled to showcase his potential and help the team secure victories. As a result, in November, he moved to Gambit Esports. However, his time there didn’t bring significant success either, with the team finishing in 7th-8th place at the SuperNova Malta 2018 tournament. This led to Sergey being placed in the reserve roster in the spring of 2019. By summer, he was transferred to Gambit Youngsters, where he found success, winning the CIS Esports Pro Championship and MSI Gaming Arena 2019, and reaching the semifinals of WePlay! Forge of Masters Season 2.The year 2020 proved to be even more fruitful, with the team securing gold at events such as Nine to Five #1, Eden Arena: Malta Vibes - Week, Eden Arena: Malta Vibes - Week 5, Nine to Five #2, and Nine to Five #4.However, Ax1Le wanted to play in the main roster, and since Gambit did not offer him that opportunity, he accepted an invitation from Cloud9 in 2023. Although Sergey did not win any gold medals with his new team, he earned silver medals at ESL Pro League Season 17, and bronze at the Thunderpick World Championship 2023, IEM Rio 2023, and BLAST Premier Fall Final 2023. Additionally, he helped Cloud9 secure a 5th-8th place finish at PGL CS2 Major Copenhagen in 2024. Since January 2025, the player has joined the BetBoom team.
