Myroslav “zont1x” Plakhotia is a Ukrainian professional CS2 player, best known as a rifler for Team Spirit. He was born on July 20, 2005, in Ukraine’s Luhansk region.
He started playing competitively in 2020 and briefly appeared with the Ukrainian team Marlian. In March 2021, he joined Spirit Academy, where he spent over two years developing his game before earning a promotion to the main Team Spirit roster on July 5, 2023.
With Spirit’s main team, zont1x became part of one of CS2’s strongest lineups. Late in 2023, Spirit won BetBoom Dacha 2023, an early sign that the roster could win big events. In 2024, they won IEM Katowice by beating FaZe 3–0 in the grand final. That same year, Spirit also won BLAST Premier Spring Final 2024 in London, defeating NAVI 3–1. In December 2024, Spirit won the Shanghai Major, and zont1x was listed as part of the championship roster.
In-game, he’s often described as the “stabilizer”: not the loudest star, but the player who keeps the team’s structure working through disciplined positioning and reliable trades. In 2025, he asked to step away for personal reasons, and Spirit replaced him with tN1R, moving zont1x to the bench
