The Story of s1mple 2.0: The Greatest of All-Time

It took s1mple a while to find himself.

But after the uncertainty and disappointment of his earlier years, on Natus Vincere, it was s1mple’s time to show the world what he was truly capable of.

2020 looked like it was going to be the year s1mple finally won his long-deserved Major -- the year he would indisputably prove who was the true GOAT of Counter-Strike.

But it wasn’t meant to be -- there was no Major in 2020, as the world was engulfed in a global pandemic, and the few esports events that did happen took place online.

From the outside looking in, it seemed as if s1mple’s one chance had passed him by -- like he was cursed to never win the big trophy.

But s1mple wasn’t ready to give up.

This year has been s1mple’s best year yet -- going into PGL Stockholm, he had it all: the drive, the talent, and the team.

But the real question was...would he finally have his Major?

This is his story.
