Spirit’s donk says this map is ‘s**t’ and begs Valve to delete it from CS2

Do you agree?

It’s virtually impossible to like every map in Counter-Strike 2’s active map pool, and the case is no different for Team Spirit’s donk. The 18-year-old hates one of them and asked Valve to delete it from the game.

In an interview at IEM Katowice 2025, donk called out Anubis for being a terrible map. “Anubis shit map, delete from CS please,” donk said. He was explicitly asked about it since it was the map that Spirit lost to GamerLegion, so we understand the frustration.

The series against GamerLegion secured Spirit a place in Katowice’s playoffs, where they’ll try to defend their title.

Out of all the maps they play, Spirit have the worst record on Anubis in 2025 so far. Currently, they have a 50 percent win rate, according to HLTV. They have the same record on Mirage while having a 100 percent win rate on Dust2, Train, and Ancient.

As much as donk would love Anubis to get deleted, it’s unlikely to happen anytime soon. It’s been a little over a month since Valve replaced Vertigo with Train in CS2. Prior to the change, Vertigo had arguably been the most-hated map in the community, while Train is a beloved classic.

Deleting Anubis and replacing it with something like Overpass would make Spirit even stronger, making them basically immortal.

The CIS squad are currently considered one of the best team in the world, winning Perfect World CS2 Shanghai Major in December 2024. They opened 2025 with another victory, this time at BLAST Bounty, and they’re defending champions in Katowice.

Anubis is one of the latest maps to be added to CS2’s active duty. It was added to the game on August 2022 as a part of CS:GO’s 10th birthday.
