Counter-Strike commentator Anders Blume dropped a quick reference to the Hasan Piker dog collar coAsmongold reacts to Suzanne Lambert calling out Hasan Piker over shock collar use on his dogntroversy during a live CS2 match broadcast. The moment happened immediately after a player secured a kill with the Zeus x27, the game’s electric taser weapon.
The line came and went in seconds. Anders delivered it in his standard play-by-play flow and the broadcast moved on to the next round without pause. A clip of the moment quickly spread online, capturing the joke and the immediate aftermath.
The timing connected directly to the weapon used. The Zeus x27 is a short-range, one-shot-kill taser in CS2. Players use it for high-risk plays and occasional comedy moments. In recent updates, the Zeus was changed from single-use to rechargeable after a cooldown, making it slightly more common but still situational.
Anders Blume is one of the most recognizable voices in Counter-Strike. The Danish caster has been calling professional matches since the CS:GO era began around 2013. He’s worked major tournaments for ESL, DreamHack, and Valve Majors. His commentary is known for high-energy calls and occasional cultural references woven into the action.
The reference pointed to a recent controversy involving Hasan Piker. A viral clip showed his dog wearing a training collar and yelping. Online debate followed over whether the device shocked the dog and what settings were used. Piker addressed the clip on his stream and disputed some of the harsher claims. People are still talking about it.
Live esports commentary often includes topical jokes and references tied to what’s happening on-screen. Casters pull from current events, memes, and streamer news to add flavor to their calls.
