After the CSGO, Major, we have updated our all-time highest revenue ranking for CSGO professional players. Danish players still dominate the top of the list in revenue, but other star players are surging behind them and cutting into the lead.
In 2018, Astralis starred Nicolai ‘dev1ce’ Reedtz, Peter ‘dupreeh’ Rasmussen, and Andreas ‘Xyp9x’ Højsleth became the first CSGO stars in history to surpass $1 million in winnings million dollars in prize money.
Since then, they and countless other players have joined the million-seller club, which now has 23 members.
Their dominant lineup no longer exists, as Astralis has relinquished all tournament dominance, and dupreeh and Magisk are trying to build a new dynasty at Vitality. However, four of these five still dominate the game’s highest-earning star players list.
Twenty-three players have now surpassed the $1 million mark
Twenty-three players have now surpassed the $1 million mark each.
While Astralis was the first to surpass the $1 million limit, 23 players are now in the Millionaires Club. These include former core members of SK-Luminosity and four NAVI players, including 19-year-old Valeriy ‘b1t’ Vakhovskiy, who has been a serious NAVI player for a little over a year and broke the $1 million mark after the IEM Rio Major.

Who is the richest CSGO player?
dupreeh has overtaken former Astralis teammate Xyp9x to become CSGO an all-time richest player. And given Astralis’ struggles, the 29-year-old Dane’s grip on the top is getting stronger and stronger, with more than $40,000 ahead of ‘Clutch Minister.’
s1mple is the only non-Danish player in the top five. This Ukrainian superstar walked onto this elite list thanks to NAVI’s success in 2021, when the team won a series of international titles, including the PGL Stockholm Major. Navi lost boombl4 but will be on the CSGO scene in 2022. They remain one of the strongest teams and have earned many top 2 finishes and BLAST Premier titles this year.
