S1mple is finally coming back to professional Counter-Strike, just not in the way anyone expected.
He’s not stepping back up on NAVI. He’s not joining C9. He’s now playing for Falcons, as a rifler, for a month.
Only question is… why?

This like when you're 99% done with the game and you realize you missed a really low level quest
Lolol nahhhhh haha s1mp can’t stay away from CS cmon lol
this "low level quest" gets him enough gp for 5 twisted bows
@@ggoldengoatd osrs content
low level quest of taking down donk
zzzzzzzzzz
"Why did he pick Falcons?"
Money. It's as s1mple as that
Yes, like 99% of pros lmao
cringe
But not only money to him. Navi has likely quite a high ask even for such short term loan. Also as Navi is not in Blast Showdown there is no conflict of interest.
@@iamapokerface8992your mum is cringe
Simple doing sidequests
Its not only simple or a baby donk that can stop donk. Zywoo and Monesy are here and with much stronger teams build around them. Just saying
@@duduchVtf u talking about, it’s not like s1mple thought, “Falcons is a good team so i joined”. The org pays insane amounts to the player regardless of the results. 99.99 percent of tier 1 players would gladly take the offer just like s1mple.
😂 commented on a comment instead of the video. Just to be clear if Simple is happy good for him. What bothered me is the video saying that only simple or another donk can stop donk… And that is not accurate at all
@@duduchV donk also got stopped by mouz quite handily and they struggled even against Astralis 🤣
That oil money from Team Falcons is really paying off by paying all these big name superstars across all esports games.
That org alone has a scary amount of money lol and they just don't care how much they spend as long as they win championships ngl
@@thomascarson4677 except not a single roster has won anything 💀💀
Wont win even with the supposed "goat" lmao, that is not how team building works. Well 1 million dollar is 1 million dollar so simple def win big lmao
i bet the org is money laundering them blood money
@@vxNikto No need to launder, everybody knows the Saudis support just about every terrible thing imaginable. Anybody that takes that money: their hands are stained. Nobody can claim ignorance regarding Prince Bonesaw.
S1mple looking at Falcon's performance: I can carry this
Lolol
Nah, it's about money
He can’t carry himself, literally
@@marcinchreptowicz6843what point are you trying to make?
@@marcinchreptowicz6843 ofc its all about money tell me a single player who didnt play for money
" Botpayus, Drop me awp"- S1mple said calmly.
Damn near forgot falcons had an awper
Lmaoao
BOTpayus(radio): Negative.
-Proceeds to rush mid and dies
That "bot" is the only one playing like a human in that team
Thx for that laugh! xD
I mean he is 26, already won a major, won multiple tier 1 events, 6 times in TOP 5 players (3 times TOP 1), his country is under allot of shit. His character is controversial, but from watching him for over many years I know he is a very smart guy. He is gonna farm millions and if invest it, he and his family is gonna live the best life for many generations.
dk if he has generational wealth but hes not gonna have to work ever if he invests wisely
Yeah YOU can. What about your kids and kids of your kids? @@znudzony223
You don't know what generational wealth means do you? @@znudzony223
@@bitsgoaameyaHe has dozens of millions of dollars by now. He will make a few more millions just because lol
@@Yetabronz bro doesnt know how much they are getting paid to have gambling sites ads on your streams 💀
I honestly think this a test for both S1mple and Falcons. Its no secret Falcons were trying to get a star player, and with S1mple on loan, this could be what they need to become a Major contender and potentially get S1mple as a permeant role on the team. For S1mple, this is his test to see what he can do after taking a break, and to see what teams might be interested in him after the Blast showdown. Tbh, I wouldn't be surprised if we see a +S1mple -B1t, but we'll just have to wait till the Blast Showdown for the answer.
Not likely, the absence of another ukranian player (s1mple) is why b1t wants to leave Navi. If it's +s1mple it's gonna be -IM since hes not been performing as well as expected and b1t and s1mple play well together and are famously close friends. OR even possibly they keep IM as young talent and boot JL but I don't know about that tbh..
@@DomzyDXthat will be stupid. Na’Vi just found a comfortable structure to play with.
B1t is uncomfortable not because that there is only one Ukrainian, he is uncomfortable because it’s an English speaking team.
Even though s1mple said that he won’t play in c9 because of 4 Russians in his team (even though they are his teammates bruh) that doesn’t stop b1t from joining a Russian-speaking team.
@@cloke3076 everyone has different feelings regarding the war. I’m sure s1mple doesn’t hate them (C9 squad) cuz it’s not their fault, but even if they’re friends who wouldn’t be uncomfortable in his situation lol
I think the hype around Donk was a major influence in S1mple’s decision to come back right now.
Money money money money money.
What's the point being made here?
@@xephronzz9585 Only falcons could have pulled a move like that with NAVI. It was Saudi money.
@@poorand2023 What?
@@xephronzz9585 ur blind or? only falcons with saudi money could afford such a rent
@@geosvinya Nah I'm just confused as to what the point is. What's the deal with saudi money?
He looked so much healthier in that interview. I'm happy he's back, but I'm not sure about this specific move.
It makes a lot of sense for s1mple because he can now have 1 month to play blast and pracc to get into cs2 pro gameplay. Then after that month he can look for options.
For me it makes a lot of sense.👍
With no pressure I bet we see vintage s1mple. Super smart and ridiculous ballsy plays. Highlights incoming.
S1mple in -- Boros Out
Simple literally laughed 4 months ago when fans was thinking he gonna join Falcons
They flashed a couple of dollar bills can't blame him hah
I mean, if someone came to me and said, “The results won’t matter, just play for us for 1 month and we’ll play u half a million” i would gladly take it. Who wouldn’t, amirite? Lol
Definitely think he’s playing for Falcons as to not compete in the majors and possibly have a chance to win it not on NaVi, something he doesn’t want to do. I think he’s testing out his LAN performance again and possibly generating some buzz to see if another team or falcons themselves offer something ridiculous for him after majors if he does have a good performance. Plus, not saying that all teams aren’t trying, but if you haven’t qualified for majors or you are an org that has qualified but isn’t trying to expense a lot of focus and energy on playing outside of it, chances are you’re not playing as good and it gives simple a window to play really good and generate some positive feedback.
I honestly thought he'd end up on NIP after they said they wanted to be top 5 by the end of 2025 and kicked headtrick. Just seemed logical that a team aspiring to be top 5 picked up the last available superstar awper. Guess we'll see what happens after the loan, and if NIP keeps this academy roster call-up team, but we'll see when nilo finishes school in the summer.
NIP is where legends go to die
s1mple is washed up which means he'd fit perfectly in nip
Can NIP even afford simple after they wasted so much on their roster and not making the major? Falcons is probably his best bet if he doesn't want to AWP, if he did then Faze would be amazing ofc.
He is chasing money for sure lol
p sure nip lost their rosters over the years because they couldn't pay their players. how would they afford the most expensive buyout of all time?
Michael Jordan on the wizards CS edition
Bruh
Literally hahaha
So excited for Blast showdown because of this
“As a rifler”
Suuuuuure
Just doing his side quests at this point lol
People have to understand that if this is about money, then it's fine. He needs to take care of his family, self in the long-run because he's won't be playing pro for too long. We all would be making the same decision in his shoes. It's also a good sign the sport is getting healthy that older players can find a team & still get paid well.
"older players" as if s1mple of all people wouldnt get any offers from any other team? and its "healthy for the future" because he took an offer from a team funded by a human rights abusing government? what? in what way do u think this is a good sign for the future of the esport lol
Dude he is 26 years old man he has no problem getting offers from good teams man lol. Also not really healthy for the sport to normalize Saudi influence, I suppose if you don't like certain E-sports journalists maybe you are hoping the Saudis are going to start picking them off?
@@zjeee nobody wants to normalise undue influence from countries like saudi but it was only a few years ago when players at simple's age had to retire. average age of cs players are in their early 20s so 26 is getting up there in age but the best players who are older can at least have longer cs careers than previous gen of players. would we be as outriaged if simple joined a russian cs team like virtus pro or team spirit or a chinese cs team? if you want to limit it to countries who kill people across the world, why not bring the US into the fold who eliminate people all over the world or cause unnnessary wars...my point is most people who criticise would make the decision to take up team falcons offer even though we talk a big game about morals & values, ultimately simple joining falcons does equal him being okay with saudi's human rights record. it's a decision to put his future first.
Dude's already a multi-millionaire and people coming to defend him. Dude wouldn't have to work a day the rest of his life as is.
This Falcons stint will just go down as a training ground for him for upcoming competitive plays. Na'Vi will constantly keep tabs on him and his progress in CS2. Once they're convinced that the GOAT never left, they'll re-up his contract and find a spot for him in the roster. Smart move from S1mple and Na'vi. S1mple gets the quick $$$ and Na'Vi gets a break from monthly payments.
I'm guessing he wants to see if he can do it/still has it and Navi don't wanna take the risks on their team so the loan is good for Simple and Falcons and possibly Navi. If it goes well it could get him back in the team
new game+ for s1mple.
with Boros being benched I think Simple saw a chance to play a bit competitive before coming back fully.
I mean I feel like it makes sense. He wants official practice in cs2 to show he still has it. This way he can play at one event then pick a team
I feel like falcons was the only team with partern slots ready to pick him up at this point, doesnt mean that he is simple, he still gotta prove he still got it, i feel like faze or g2 are more than likely to sign him by summer break if he turns out to be good, it doesnt make sense for him to just go on loan if he was only interested for the paycheck
maden and s1mple in one team, that's quite a firepower to play with, but eventually it all comes down to team play
How to instantly destroy your reputation: 101
what's the benefit or ROI for Falcons? I don't get it.
It's sportswashing. Saudi Arabia is not necessarily looking for a monetary return, but they're rather paying athletes across all sports insane amounts to either speak positively about the country or for people to have a more positive view of it. Essentially "Well, if Ronaldo is playing there/Fury fighting there/s1mple is playing for a state-funded Saudi org, it can't be THAT bad, right?"
5:29 what violation records please tell us, I’m really curious where did u get this crap from
I laughed at that part been actually to KSA for over a month and didn’t see or even hear about anything weird there, he a bit ignorant ngl 😂
"Saudi Arabia’s absolute monarchy restricts almost all political rights and civil liberties. No officials at the national level are elected. The regime relies on pervasive surveillance, the criminalization of dissent, appeals to sectarianism and ethnicity, and public spending supported by oil revenues to maintain power. Women and members of religious minority groups face extensive discrimination in law and in practice. Working conditions for the large expatriate labor force are often exploitative."
From Freedom house. No matter if you think it's a correct assessment or not it is obviously going to be called out, it's a hard stain to scrub off and will probably stay with the Saudi regime for a very long time. it is what it is.
did u live in saudi ? if not then u cant just research about everything, all is propaganda, the only truth is experiencing for yourself@@zjeee
he cant use the wrist to flick burgers
nah s1mple just on his side quest rn lolol
bro this is a whole new tenz situation, are we gonna see simple take this team to the top
I thought I was hungover seeing Falcons S1mple.
"...another, even smaller Donk..." LOL
I thought he said "another, even smaller dong" for a sec and had me laughing out loud
S1mple was probably always going to falcons it was just that the “after the major” part was because they were expected to qualify now that they didn’t they can make roster moves earlier and they wanted to pick him up for blast premier spring showdown before roster locks
i think he wants to hunt donk in the next month, entering falcon as a cover
Getting a bag, getting back into form. Contract is only 1 month
Goddamn I'm sick as shit and stil preparing to go to school and this shit drops. What a way to start the day lmao.
1) Nice
2) Nice
3) Nice
CR7 has gone to al nassar? crazy
does it make sense to join your Faceit hub as an European?
i think he wants to prove world his level again and he wants to test out if rifling will work.
he's getting that sweet Saudi money
2:10 the he breaks it down for valve is hilarious.
why is everyone even surprised its very very i cant stress enough how very common it is in any sport in the world beside the american exclusive ones for legends and hall of famers to retire in a saudi/gulf country team/club given the huge amount of benefits and salary mixed with small expectations. such as in soccer
Perfect! Falcons get a hype instead of boo's and S1mple get's a practice while all eyes are on Major.
And S1mple said he wasn't retiring LMAOOO
s1mple is a strong defender of human rights and Ukrainian sovereignty unless Saudi blood oil money are on the line
@@GtaXII The guy is just going there for a month to collect some cash come on.
@@GtaXII xdd
I am beyond excited to see s1mple on a rifle. It's something I've wanted to see for years. Yes, s1mple is an amazing player with the awp, but he does have slumps using it. I genuinely believe he can even more impact on the server with a rifle. That being said, we shall see.
idc which team he's on. I know he choose the best team for his own. I just want to see the goat is back.
Ah yes, the goat of Counter Strike going to a state-funded Saudi Arabian org doing a form of sportswashing. This is great for the game!!!
don't worry he's doing it for poor children in ukraine
i would love seeing s1mple with eyeballers (flusha & JP)
If he ends up looking solid as a rifler, Liquid -Skullz +S1mple
its fine at least king is back maybe he change using awp in mid round or mid season
I'm not knowledgeable of the cs esports scene but from the so he doesnt play against Navi in the major. Im just assuming that the team if their good qualified for the major so he wants to join a team so he wont directly compete with them when he does play.
bros getting the bread real quick
NaVi:- Come back as our main awper.
s1mple:- Nah, I would like to have a fair duel as a rifler against Donk in Falcons.
🤣🤣🤣
No way this isnt just a marketing plot to generate buzz around the falcons
lets be real for a second, $1,000,000 per month is insane
I don't really like Falcons, but I can definitely respect his decision lmao
Bro basically gettin a mil to warm up for navi💀
@@billyli5477 exactly lmfao
I don't want to see the day when Simple and Donk gets put into the same team
S1mple becoming esport team manager
*it's like the same story of messi going to PSG*
"Ruffle some feathers"... Jfc
There are a lot of questions - namely - why?
“The bag.”
- end video
He will get practice, he will get experience, he will get a lot of money that he can donate to the Ukrainian army💙💛, and then he will return to tear1 team. Very smart move. Lets Go!
We could've finally seen Niko and S1mple in one team if Niko didn't cancel the deal.
I would LOVE to see him single handedly carry 9z. argentina needs a major after that ancient facepalm
It’s a very smart move from simple
If he does bad with Falcons, he and his fans can blame the team and Saudi money, while if he performs well on the team then everyone will talk about the goat being back.
Simple can’t lose here.
As long as he keep his mouth shut about Saudi money until he leaves the country he will be golden.
s1mple completes the dlc
I beleive he wants tosee how cs2 feels in high level tbh
I felt like most CS:GO players like S1mple feels that CS2 feels less responsive when it was first launch. Maybe he's joining Falcon just to familiarize with CS2 E-Sport scene. No Valorant for S1mple.
I would have like to see him on c9
S1mple, the Phil Mickelson of esports.
Such a cool dude and great player
Can we please get a video about SAW?
Wait, how is this odd? Its a job at the end of the day, arent falcons rumored to have deep pockets?
S1mple getting that Oiler money, fair play to him.
Faze simple would be nuts maybe another major for goat
"THE GOAT IS BACK? "
Believe it kids
Imagine s1mple on vitality 😂
simpel transferred to Inter Miami confirmed
its saudi arabia Falcons hiring famous both Famous sports or e-sports players
Simple was the best player i ever seen back when he played for flipside and he was like 18 now hes out of his prime but hes still probably one of the top 10 players
don't ever trust to anyone who says "actual working anti cheat"
Team falcon in dota 2 won the recent tournament.
3:19 "If anyone's going to handle the Donk situation, it's either another even smaller Donk, or S1mple himself" ... or, you know, ZyWoo? Year-end no. 1 (3 times) or no. 2 for his entire pro career? I dunno
lol
The Oscar of Counter-Strike
I saw somewhere that he said they are paying 1M per month so...
S1mple to Liquid for Skullz after the month i presume.
I dont understand why he didnt go back to NaVi. S1mple with AleksiB would be insane
Why the hell not
My guess is that hes just warming up for the professionals cs2 and thats why he got 1 month loan
Bro pulled a ronaldo on us
I mean…. He allegedly is getting paid a million for this one month… why would you ever turn down an offer like that?
b..but human rights and sovereignty
@@GtaXIIWho cares bow down to the leader grab the bag and talk smack about them once you left the country.
ohne and cadians reaction xD
hes doing bread yuhhhh
S1mple took DLC content
This is a yay to bleed situation all over again
Simple literally took the quote "Don't let them know your next move" seriously.
Next stage will be FaZe hear me out but this isnt a bad choice from s1mple he is just testing out with multi national team so my guess is that he is wating a offer from FaZe or Liquid
