@@cinderella8187 People who have watched this game since 2013 can appreciate his arc. He showed how good a new young player can be in a csgo field where everybody were CS veterans like NIP
I’ve thought about it, and it’s really interesting actually. At face value, he matured and became less toxic and so he won. But looking just a bit deeper into it. Every single person who rejected s1mple was pushed out of relativity while he became the greatest player of all time. Hellraisers(except the X god), flipside, and the entire Navi roster became completely irrelevant while s1mple takes over and has become the sole face of navi. Insane to think that not only has he conquered his demons, he has conquered csgo as well as every single one of his doubters. Almost like he said "okay, you don’t want me to join Navi? I’ll be so good that you can’t choose otherwise and then win a major, without a single one of you on my team.
little fun story: a friend of mine visited me and we were watching youtube videos. he has never played cs or watched anything of it but i wanted to show him some superstitum videos .. i showed him around 5 vids one of it was the 's1mple the undertaker' 3rd part i think.. next time he visited me he said just out of contex : hey lets watch some highlights of this s1mple guy. i asked him why and he just said that there is something special about him and he just loved seeing him play he is just something else.. and that even from someone who never seen anything of the game before
agreed. I wanted g2 to win but i had a strong feeling navi would take it, and they did deserve it. G2 will continue upwards tho, so will gambit and faze
i understand the entire messi last name thing, if you aren't a fan of the sport it's plausible that you only heard the name but doesnt know if its the first or the lastname. calling it soccer on the other hand...
s1mple, electronic and NiKo very similar players. Only issue with NiKo is he rarely closes tournaments for his teams. Hopefully he picks up his socks sooner than later. Electronic, on the other hand, if not for s1mple, can literally be a Superstar player in any roster. Ever! The stuff that gentleman does is remarkable!
Watching this right after the major. Just feeling good for the goat of CS GO right now. So much struggle for this title. So much respect for the endurance and the team, so they could win the major.
And s1mple just dropped a 36 bomb against Vitality in mirage at the Blast Premier Copenhagen Grand Finals 2021 this week. Just when I thought he was at his peak, this man literally evolved further. s1mple is a god.
The thing for me Launders is that s1mple always performed well even with a poor team and was (is) always enjoyable to watch. Where as Zywoo isn't as enjoyable to watch and cannot perform regardless of team.
If you actually watch Zywoo demos he is clearly insane and very enjoyable to watch. Also he has great stats this year? you literally got everything wrong
This is s1mple’s 2013 Lebron/ 96 Jordan year…. You watch him and he just seems like he’s on a mission to put every opponent in the ground, as fast as possible.
Love the Face in the Thumbnail! This channel will be first CSGO commentator to hit 1 mil subs and will most likely be the best CSGO commentator to grace TH-cam, keep doing what you’re doing Lau you’re awesome!
Hey Lau, I’m a long time viewer and I love tour vids so I wanted to give you some constructive criticism on some things that could be improved slightly. The first of which being, I love your intro monologues, but sometimes they can be just a bit drawn out and have me itching to get to the demo sooner. The second of which being the VOD audio. I know it’s not always possible, but when available it is way better to not have any shoutcasters in the background of the demos you’re showing. It just gets cluttered and distracts further from the content and your analysis. Thanks for the awesome vids man, I always love your content and you’re doing great!
As a NaVi fan, watching them dominate throughout yet another tournament makes you fucking cream your pants. 4 big tournament wins in 6 months is a big promotion from 1 tournament a year. And yeah, long time NaVi fans will know that these glimpses of consistency have happened before and failed to persist and yet I can't help but be excited for this roster's future
Almost all of his frags are sick but one that stood out for me was the awp frag in apps on olofmeister. Flicks like an aimbot on for a huge entry frag on a crucial round as CT as you all know inferno CT you almost have to win pistol and first round to be able to get nades to control banana and b-site. He also kills Twistzz and another sick flick onto Broky to get his 3rd for the round. Amazing carry
Hot take: Its not that relevant anymore, but Zywoos numbers right now make the two hltv #1s for Zywoo seem even more wrong than they did at the time, let me explain. Zywoo had, without a doubt, the better teams in 2019 and 2020. s1mples Navi was always chaotic, the only bright thing about it pretty much being electronic, but even he is a bit inconstent sometimes in 2019/2020. s1mple still was 50/50 in the conversation for the #1 spot. He still carried the shit out of Navi, no matter the trainwreck Team they were. He still carried them to some titles. Zywoo isnt doing that right now. Now he is the one with the broken team (structurly), and he isnt even in the conversation anymore. That for me makes s1mples numbers the last two years so much more impressive. Context sometimes is key. Btw dont get me wrong, Zywoo will be #1 again, I would bet a lot for that to be the case. but for me personally 2018 till the present is the s1mple era. Undeniably the best player of all time in his prime, the goat.
As a side note. Device is my favorite player in cs go. And I've been watching for years now. I tought it was a big and a "boss" move to go to NIP at the his stage the way he did it. However if this does not work out for him, instead of Lebron going back to Clevland to help win there this could turn out to be like Kobe thinking about leaving the Lakers for Chicago. He did not go at the end and it was the best choice he could have made for him. Let's see. Did Device pull of the move of his career or did he totally f*** this one up. Also Simple is the best ever. Like Jeez man ....
Tbf, even if he isn't peak devve anymore he won't have issues finding a role unless he drops off a lot more. Question is really whether astralis would take him back
Launders makes great content. Simple knows each player individually. He knows how they move and which positions they play strongly. He just knows the psycology of the game man.amazing
That hs kill on inferno b site on a jumping player(i think amanek) at construction who was only visible for milliseconds when his crosshair was on his feet,idk how fast this man is, his crosshair was on the fucking feet and he flicked so fast he got a hs kill, and the follow up 2 flicks and kills through the smoke, man that round hurts to watch, it was so dirty nobody can do anything against a player like him
3:40 - Proper footballing analogy would be Gareth Bale and Luka Modric leaving Tottenham for Real Madrid to win trophies. Everyone could see they were quality, but they knew they wouldn't win anything at Spurs. Other guys that come to mind... David Villa from Valencia to Barcelona.

S1mple isnt so great? When was the last time you saw a player with such ability and movement? We will be blessed if we ever see a player with his skill and passion for the game again. Zywoo breaks records. s1mple breaks the rules. You can keep your statistics. I prefer the magic

Nah this is his 91 Jordan year. He wants to win something that he hasn't won before, just like Jordan.
