Robin “flusha” Ronnquist, after a long professional career, decided to hang up the gaming equipment, at least when it comes to the role of the player.
Decided to retire from playing competitive CSGO, Im still gonna be sticking around doing whatever.. not really too sure yet!

Judging by his post on Twitter, I haven'tš he's not sure what he'll be doing and it's the next step in his career, but it seems he'll stay in the world of esports one way or another.
Flusha was at his peak between 2013 and 2016, in which period he was in the top 20 best players in the world every year, but also won the biggest tournament in CS:GO three times. -u, Major.
In 2013, he was awarded the thirteenth best player of the year, and then he won his first Major trophy, played in his home country of Jönköping, Sweden.
Best of luck Robin :) never liked playing against you! ????

The very next year was the best individual in his career. He managed to be ranked number two in the world, but missed out on the game's biggest tournament that year. It sounds incredible, but nine years ago he was at his peak, although it all seems much closer
Gl next flusha / thanks for everything inside and outside the game.

The famous “fnatic era” it happened the following year, when he and his teammates managed to win two Majors in the same year, lifting cups in both Katowice and Cologne. The younger crowd may not know it, but these two tournaments used to be the most prestigious, and even now after so many years, and even though they are no longer Majors, they are considered the biggest tournaments of the year. and they are written in red letters in the calendar of every professional player who once had the dream of performing in front of such an audience, in the now historic arenas where the history of the game is written forever
major mvp, #2 of 2014 and best HE player of all time ????

It was in Cologne that year, he received the MVP award for the most valuable player, š that speaks volumes for how important he was to his team and the results they achieved during that year when they absolutely dominated the scene.
He was so good, that various fans and some players suspected that he was hacking, found clips from his demos where they would look for situations that support that theory, but even after so many years, no one has ever managed to prove such a thing.< /p>
Still remember this game, it changed my career and you literally won it by doing some crazy shit. Used to watch every game that fnatic lineup played, my fav team of all time. Thanks for the good memories. pic.twitter.com/iP2uhi4Gz8

This is perhaps the biggest compliment he can receive after his official retirement. He marked an important period of CS:GO, and is definitely one of the best players ever when it comes to this version of the game.
