Christophe ‘SIXER’ Xia

Christophe ‘SIXER’ Xia is a 26 year old pro gamer that competes in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive for EnVyUs. He is currently playing the awper position and can also handle the rifler role if the need arises. He had no nickname so his friend brought him a jersey from the Basketball team, SIXER and that was how he came up with alias.

Christophe describes CS:GO as amazing, prestigious and a big adventure that gives him the motivation to put in six hours of practice with his NV team. His dedication has given him the focus to improve on his fighting skills to play an additional two to three hours in his spare time.

Where it all began:

Christophe began playing Counter-Strike 1.6 when he was about ten years old with his friends and family. In 2006, SIXER joined his first esports team, Cowboyz and moved on with other units Millenium and eSahara until December 2011.

CS 1.6 game

Xia switched to CS:GO in 2013 and has never regretted the change as he finds the video game far more better and exciting  than CS 1.6. He does not consider himself a good gamer in fact he follows players like Snacks, KennyS, Fallen and his favourite gamer, Coldzera so as to improve and develop his fighting skills.
