S1mple loses debut tournament with Falcons, shows best performance on his team
2024-10-22 08:56:00Falcons with CS2 star Oleksandr "s1mple" Kostyliev dropped out of Thunderpick World Championship 2024. They didn't win a single map against 3DMAX and Virtus.pro and were eliminated from the event.
The Ukrainian was the best player on the team. He finished the event with 1.17 HLTV rating, averaged 90 damage per round and 84 kills per round. His performance has been tanked by poor showing on Anubis. The superstar rarely played this map in officials before, and only once in CS2.
This was the first online tournament for s1mple after his comeback. Falcons will soon have a chance to redeem themselves as they attend ESL Challenger Katowice 2024, staged on LAN. The event starts on October 25. In the first game, s1mple and his teammates face SAW, it starts at 13:00 CEST. You can watch it here.
Thunderpick World Championship 2024 runs from October 21 to November 3. The semis and the grand final will take place on LAN in Berlin. Below is the recap of s1mple's first series against 3DMAX.
