nevertheless, when s1mple's career ends, he will have titles to back his claims for a goat debate. Can't question that a major, igs, 2 colognes, 1 kato, 2 blast global finals are a worthy achievement. yes, he choked quite a few solid matchups, but in most of them, his team shouldn't even have been in the first place

NiKo's choking is overrated. (only boston final and deagle shot on stockholm) S1mple "literally" choked on 3 major grand finals. ESL One Cologne Major - Grand Final s1mple - 0.63 (10th best player of bo3) hltv.org/matches/2303403/sk-vs-liquid-es.. Faceit Major 2018 - Grand Final s1mple - 0.81 (9th best player of bo3) hltv.org/matches/2326427/natus-vincere-v.. poor elec was trying to carry nuke. Antwerp Major - Grand Final s1mple - 0.89 (9th best player of bo3) hltv.org/matches/2356169/faze-vs-natus-v.. Bonus: On 30th round, he should have won inferno by just going B. But he overthought and lost the 1v1 against ropz. Except those 3 major grand finals, IEM Rio Major - quarter finals s1mple - 0.87 (10th best player of bo3) hltv.org/matches/2359843/furia-vs-natus-.. Bonus: He was acting like he doesnt care about BR crowd and he is the villain. Bonus2: Probably was NaVi's major to win if they could have passed quarters. Cologne 2022 - Grand Final - 5th Map Whoever wins the map, gets the cologne trophy: s1mple - 0.87 (7th best player of decider map) Probably there are more but i only found these in 5 mins. TLDR: Anyone who thinks NiKo is more choker than s1mple are either NiKo hater, s1mple fan or got speculated by NiKo haters. The answer is : s1mple

Lmao how can someone live so rent free in your head

2023-06-10 22:37

if you want to pick specific games then you can pick for Niko as well , boston final heavy favourite , kato 2022 underperformed whole playoffs and lost to faze with a stand in , kato 2023 the tournament he won he was 4th best player on G2 in the finals , atleast s1mple was the best player when he won the tournament
