S1mple reveals when he wants to come back to CS2
2023-12-27 09:27:00NAVI inactive star player Oleksandr "s1mple" Kostyliev revealed his goal to play at the second CS2 Major in Shanghai. This possibly means he should return to the professional stage after the first one to regain his shape and go through the qualifying processes. The AWPer shared it on stream.
Shanghai Major? Bro, I love Shanghai. That's actually my goal to play at Shanghai Major, especially on stage, especially in front of Chinese fans. This one is the tournament I'm looking forward to. This one is oof. Man, I love Shanghai; it's one of the nicest places I've ever been to.
Previously, NAVI coach Andrij "B1ad3" Horodenskyj stated fans would unlikely see s1mple playing at PGL Major Copenhagen 2024, running in the second half of March. He didn't completely deny this possibility but said "something unexpected" should happen for the superstar to appear in the Denmark event.
Perfect World Shanghai Major 2024 will be held in December. It will be the first event of this type for the country and in Asia in general. S1mple took a break in October, before the first CS2 LAN IEM Sydney 2023. He has yet to play an official tournament in the new game.
