8-7-2021 10:18

Watch a highlight reel of Oleksandr "⁠s1mple⁠" Kostyliev's best moments from his MVP-worthy performance at StarLadder CIS RMR.

s1mple earned last weekend his third MVP award of the year following a string of impressive performances in Natus Vincere's first-place finish in the CIS RMR tournament. The Ukrainian superstar stood head and shoulders above his tournament competitors, posting a remarkable 1.35 average rating across 23 maps. The 23-year-old was also the joint-best performing player in the best-of-five final against Gambit with a 1.24 rating.

s1mple now boasts three MVP accolades in 2021

Besides his outstanding consistency, s1mple concluded the RMR event at the top of the leaderboard in ADR (89), KPR (0.85), 1+ kill rounds (53.4%), KAST (76.6%) and impact rating (1.42), among other categories.

He actually makes so many of his highlights appear so easy, yet they are so incredibly difficult to actually pull off. GGWP!

Yeah, I'm indeed a fan of at least 30 amazing players and teams from all over the world, who are all listed on my profile. And yeah, s1mple is also one of my flairs! I have followed his career ever since ESL One Cologne 2016, and it's a strong personal opinion of mine that he is one of the best players of all time! Though I have grown weary of his fanbase at times, it doesn't change my opinion of him as a player. PS: Apologies for replying so late. I am really caught up with work nowadays. I just hope to catch perhaps the first map or two of Liquid vs NiP match-up, before I go to sleep :D. I have a feeling it's gonna deliver!!! Have a nice day :)

I like s1mple and he is a world class player. But the way zywoo joined the t1 stage and dominating it in such an impressive way from day 1 he arrived is not normal... Zywoo joined t1 Stage with an age of 18. became in his first two years no.1 Player. (Within competating s1mple in his prime as a rookie!) At this Point simple was in the same age and he got no. 8 and no.4. also an amazing performance, but not as much impressive as zywoo's.

2021-07-08 19:13

Bro just look 2021 stats. Simple has way vetter raiting. 3 mvps. And yet more maps played…. Goat of CS is s1mple. Pls don make me to call admin on you. Some point u have to ubderstant fact.

2021-07-08 23:41

Year is Not over and a lot of Big tournaments are coming. Simple has a good Chance to claim no.1 in 2021 but its Not sure now. Even if he does he is still behind zywoo in over all Performance. Thats fact - have fun while reporting 😘

2021-07-09 10:36

Can u tell me wich stats he is better than simple, last time i checked simple has all individual stats way vetter than zywoo ( s1: 1.34 & zywoo 1.28) other stats goes to simple. Idiot…

2021-07-09 15:50

We are talking about 2 different things. I compare their whole careers and you are talking about a small period... that makes no sense ;)... Idiot...? Why are so salty? Are you Not able to hold a normal conversation or did Your parents just miss to teach you some manners? 😬😂

2021-07-09 17:44

S1mple has had better career than zywoo. Zywoo has to play 4-5 more years on same level as simpledid and is still keep going. S1mple 2021 stats better. All time stats ofc are lover bc he has played many many more games.

2021-07-10 10:50

Absolutely. No one else is close this year

2021-07-08 14:56

stupid gambit players with sponsors in their nametags what is this 2014

Too good :)

WOAT? Worst Of All Time?

I don't like him but he is the best without a dubt.

2021-07-08 10:29

I like imoRR, he is the GOAT )

2021-07-08 10:32

Nice edit and GJ from s1mple!

GOAT? Not even close, maybe the best of this era but not the best of all times. You have to win Majors before you can be considered a GOAT, end of story.

Zywoo?

Zywoo isn't even top 5.

who is top 1? sh1ro?

2021-07-08 10:33

You are braindead. It's greatest player of all time, not greatest team. Winning a major is team based, no player can win a major by himself. Zywoo is the greatest player to ever touch CS, period

2021-07-08 12:37

GOAT != win major...

I dont see Gamb0t

2021-07-08 13:06

I'm not a s1mple fan but as it looks right now s1mple is a good path to becoming top-1 player this year. Depends a lot how Gambit will perform the rest of the year. zywoo and Vitality has to step up so much from now on that it seems unlikely that zywoo is any contender, maybe top-3-4 or so possible for him.

2021-07-08 12:25

Nothing more to say. The best for 4 years. S1mple - CSGO is so much more fun with you on board. Without you many fans would leave for other games.

I love both players. But zywoo is one inch above s1mple. This is a fact. The man is just a one man army.

n1ce

that was an insane hl reel actually, he's still @ the top of his game

2021-07-08 17:48

Factually, s1mple is objectively the best player in the world and nobody really comes close.

If there’s one thing I know for sure it’s that a s1mple mvp video will never be a video full of boring frags. I’ve seen some not so great mvp videos for other players. S1mple always delivers the entertainment
