Biography

Rasmus “HooXi” Nielsen (born May 21, 1995, Denmark) is a professional Counter-Strike 2 rifler and in-game leader for Astralis, known for his strategic depth, adaptability, and leadership across multiple top-tier European rosters. With a career spanning nearly a decade, HooXi has steadily contributed to elite teams, reaching championship stages and earning recognition as a reliable presence in the server.

HooXi began his competitive career in 2015, stepping onto the esports stage with the Danish squad myXMG. Over the following years, he continued refining his craft in regional lineups before joining MAD Lions in 2020, where he served in a starting capacity and gained exposure to international tournaments. A brief stint followed with Copenhagen Flames, before he earned a high-profile move to G2 Esports in August 2022, where he took on the role of primary in-game leader.

With G2, HooXi guided the roster through major tournament runs, including title contention at premier events and consistent playoff appearances in 2022 and 2023. In June 2025, HooXi transferred to Astralis, reuniting with the legendary Danish organization to continue his leadership journey.

Over 430+ professional matches, HooXi has secured well over $445,000 in prize earnings—highlighting both his longevity and success at high levels. His standout achievement includes winning the BLAST Premier World Final 2022, where he played a vital leadership role in securing the championship for G2. Additionally, his strategic execution in late rounds and calculated pace-setting calling have defined his presence in tier-one play.
