About
Maksim Pavlov, known as shadowkekw, is a Counter-Strike and Just Chatting streamer whose team won BetBoom Streamers Battle CS 3 by August 2025.[1][2] His team defeated by_Owl's team 2-0 in the grand final.[2]
He and Evelone commentated on the BLAST.tv Austin Major from the arena in June 2025 and played in its show match alongside overseas creators.[3] They also broadcast from the StarLadder Budapest Major in December 2025.[3]
Server development and streaming
Before streaming, he developed Counter-Strike servers with a friend in Saratov.[1] He later built servers for Bratishkin and said they closed the project because it could no longer cover its costs.[1] He began streaming on Twitch in 2020.[3]
In an August 2024 interview, he credited Bratishkin's support and collaborations, along with the pandemic streaming boom, with his breakthrough.[1] By then, he had left 89SQUAD and joined Freak Squad.[1]
He and by_Owl won Couple of the Year at SLAY 2024.[4] By March 2026, he had announced Rofl Streamers Battle, an online Counter-Strike 2 tournament for creators.[5]
