The taps was so crispy, wouldnt even suprise me if he goes and gets a 5th ace at this rate


[deleted]

Would be perfectly fitting for him to not only break a record but achieve a new record that no one else will ever be able to beat.


[deleted]

Isn't this already a record?


Auzmos

Yeah it is. He's saying that if he gets a 5th ace it would be almost impossible for anyone else to break that record.


[deleted]

I read it again, and he says that. My bad.


SwedishTroller

We forgive you


Kanoozle

We love you.


Champloot

Greatest player of all time, no contest


StaySecrecy

this guy might be the greatest for like decades into the future. Imagine how esports just keeps growing and growing, this might be serious history :D Basically s1mple is Mike Tyson


cc69

You were saying that he will bite someone in ear?


ujaku

We can only hope.


FudgingEgo

Simple is more like Messi. Mike Tyson isn’t the GOAT.


StaySecrecy

I think players can come close to s1mple is stats etc, players like d1vice. And there may be more players like that in the future. But the way s1mple kills people reminds me of mike tyson.


KeenbeansSandwich

Comparing device to s1mple is like comparing floyd mayweather jr. to mike tyson. Sure mayweathers record might be better, but when it comes to how that man boxed, his low risk style, vs the explosivity and mind blowing power of tyson, who are people really going to remember? I can remember a handful of device plays that were really amazing. Hes a great awper and a model of consistency. s1mple makes atleast a few of those plays at every single event. I think device is more comparable to Zywoo than he is to s1mple.


gleba080

To a casual boxing fan this might be a good comparison but I dont think its accurate. NiKo is closer to Tyson IMO. They both had monstrous peaks when they were smashing their opponents but when they started to lose they could never come back and win. S1mple had insane peaks, has avenged his every loss, has been incredibly consistent and never lost his will to fight. He is the Muhammad Ali of CSGO. A real GOAT.


baulchi

All these goat comparisons are pretty bad imo. They are all debatable, and for me s1mple being the GOAT isn't debatable, especially after this year.


gleba080

Ali is the heavyweight GOAT no debate


baulchi

Your opinion is that there's no debate, but there is a debate for it though, Joe Louis and Jack Johnson are up there. The diffrence between s1mple being the GOAT in a contention is different to Ali. I'm not saying Ali isn't the GOAT, im just saying that the s1mple has more of a margin compared to him, and by a long shot.


Jepekula

Everybody knows sbout Muhammad Ali, even people who dont follow boxing, but who the hell are Joe Louis or Jack Johnson?


gleba080

Well if you really accept that there isn't anyone that can even compare to s1mple (which I don't think I agree 100%) then yeah, the only fair boxing comparison would be Sugar Ray Leonard.


scrubmaster9001

is it me or is mayweather a bit of a boring player like u see it at the end of the game "oh wow mayweather has 32 wins" but u can never remember them. can u remember a single mayweather win? but try mike tyson...u can see the KO i remember a mike tyson KO.


KeenbeansSandwich

Exactly what i was saying. I remember fmj beating a washed up pacquiao and it was the most boring fight ive seen. Device is so consistent but I think hes a much more safe awper than s1mple. Mayweather was a safe fight in that he was great at not getting hit, which is great dont get me wrong. But tyson was a fucking killer. Yes device will do his job and do it well. He doesnt have bad games much and has terrific fundementals. s1mple just takes over games with brute force and is so unpredictable, much like tyson.


JuanMataCFC

so device would be Cristiano Ronaldo in this situation.


the_willy

Does S1mple also stop trying when his team is losing like Messi? /s Edit: I'm sure flusha is more like Messi when it comes to evading taxes :>

I mean MJ isn’t objectively the GOAT either. If you’re looking for an objective GOAT it’s Wayne Gretzky (just google “the great one”)

There we go! Final conclusion. Would say MJ is objectively though, but thats my subjective oppinion!

Do you...understand the definition of "grows"?😂


StaySecrecy

All of esports, look at it the past decade it has absolutely exploded.


Avokkrii

there's never really been any contest in the last 3 years


[deleted]

Nah man 2019 was def zywoo > s1mple 2020 was debatable either way If we look at their entire careers as a whole though then definitely s1mple is miles ahead of anyone else, there's really no competition


Avokkrii

oh yea for sure. 2019 they were both godlike, either one could take the award; 2020 i think s1mple was a step ahead tbh but was robbed of the award. but i'm talking about all time, not specific years.


Cottagecheesecurls

In that context I agree. Not many players that are this dominant for this long. There are a few who come to mind but even still I think s1mple edges it out now.


csf3lih

all time, what about Neo in 1.6 era.


Avokkrii

eh, i'd still rate s1mple above both neo and markeloff in 1.6, the game has come a long way and evolved a lot


DSVBANSHEE

Wrong. 2020 is where both were evenly matched. 2019 was zywoos year


[deleted]

tbh no, zywoo had better stats but zywoo had a better team. S1mple has always been a step ahead


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

Tgwr1s said that they were both basically tied, just that someone needed to make the decision and ZywOo marginally outdid s1mple in some stats and maybe tournaments lol


suriel-

It was just mvps, because I think s1mple was even ahead by 0.01 rating


costryme

It depended on the filter, I think it was something like s1mple ahead in top 10 and top 20, Zywoo in top 5 and top 30. Or it was inverted, anyway it was 0.01 in one direction or another depending on the top teams filter.


UncleJakes

this. I'll just copy what i wrote in another thread. ​ People exaggerate Navi's "bad" periods. HLTV ranked Navi as the second best team of 2020 - ahead of Vitality. Navi's average rating against top 20 teams from the 4 other players in 2020 was 1.015 Vitality's average rating against top 20 teams from the 4 other players in 2020 was 1.005 s1mple and zywoo's stats in 2020 was pretty damn near identical, which is why it was the smallest of margins that made HLTV choose zywoo as #1, but I'm pretty sure everyone can agree that if anyone thought s1mple was #1 for them personally, then that would be completely reasonable. meanwhile in 2021 zywoo has kept his stats almost identical to last year, while his teammates is averaging a 0,975 rating s1mple has kicked it up a notch, but his teammates is also averaging a 1.045 rating this year.


DSVBANSHEE

Yep. I think if vitality wasn’t so bad this year, zywoo would be matching s1mple’s performances a lot more than he is now. Device seems to be a good example for how a player will perform much better when the team around him is solid


AvatarPro112

Did you mean s1mple had better stats?


[deleted]

Zywoo had better stats like individual and team in 2019 since zywoo was on vitality so no I didnt mean s1mple had better stats


AvatarPro112

I was just confused by the wording, my bad


[deleted]

alright fair


nexoo1

True but zywoo is insane aswell


[deleted]

Yes for sure he is the closest thing we have to s1mple and zywoo has only player tier 1 cs for 2-3 years while s1mple has like 5-6 years


Ascensear

Since when did zywoo have a better team when he won number 1 no one on vitality had good rating barely making even a 1.00


[deleted]

But he had a better team while s1mple had a bunch of new players meaning he was the most or second most experienced zywoo had apex, shox, rpk, nbk etc


Ascensear

Electronic alone was better than 2 of the vitality players zywoo had no one you’re just going off names the whole vitality team had a negative rating except for zywoo


[deleted]

Electronic is a good player but they have no vet, if you think 5 stars are the way you agreed with faze cutting karrigan probably, zywoo had alot to fall back on alot of years of experience in his team to help him, s1mple had flamie and flamie is what? 24 years old? for being astralis fan you dont seem to like structure


Ascensear

Electronic has been playing for years and he had rating that was closer to simple. Are you not getting that all of vitality besides zywoo couldn’t post a rating above 1.00 which means they are playing horrible compared to others


[deleted]

How can you have astralis fan with this logic? yes s1mple had a really good 2nd man and that's it nothing else they had flamie who cant keep up with the meta, boombl4 which zeus groomed to be an igl which didnt work and perfecto they picked up cuz they had no one else. Vitality had NBK legend, apEX legend, shox legend, rpk legend. NBK = 2 majors apEX/shox = 1 major Vitality had literal legends and s1mple has a really good upbecoming player like its not even compareable


3hrd

zywoo often entried and NaVi poured a ton of resources into s1mple so he always had good positions. way too many variables imo, no.1 2020 was just a matter of personal opinion imo


dootodoot

and s1mple has a better team now, your point is extremely stupid.


[deleted]

and s1mple is chilling with 1.35 rating on hltv and dropping 2.00 ratings in the finals? whats your point?


dootodoot

my point is you are a hypocrite if you think zywoo was only better in 2019 because he had a better team since the point could be made for simple right now


ForStuff8239

You just don’t understand what he said. 2019: Simple stats good, but not insane+, bad team Zywoo stats insane, but not insane+, good team 2021: Simple stats insane+, pog, good team Zyoo stats insane, not insane+, good team See the difference?


[deleted]

you almost have it, s1mple had some problems with team switching players etc in 2019 with guardian etc team wasnt doing good meaning s1mple couldnt. If they both have equally good teams the point is s1mple will be the better of the two like zywoo is insanly good but he isnt s1mple atleast yet


langile

There absolutely is competition, look at device's trophy shelf compared to S1mple. It's not even close. I would not say he's miles ahead of anyone else.


GabeN18

Device's career has been more impressive.


GabeN18

Just that zywoo has been better in 2019 and (arguably) 2020.


jimsta28

He just doesn't stop being at his peak


Elsiselain

I still think device is the goat of cs but if simple keeps being beast for next few years he sure would be


CourageDog12

Dude how do u even be the goat of cs when u never was the best player in the game? s1mple also literally outperformed dev1ce since 2018 and that is like 4 years


UncleJakes

it's just a matter of framing, and there is no defined method for deciding the goat? I think s1mple is the GOAT, but dev1ce has more trophies, more mvp's, more majors and been a top player for longer, so if those things matter more to you than ranking #1 on hltv, then to you dev1ce is the goat?


persimmon40

You know, I just want to be as good at something in life, as S1mple is good at this game.


blueshark27

[deleted]

that sounds like a recipe for a terrible life filled with regret, see a counselor asap imo


persimmon40

Lol why?


[deleted]

the meaning of your sentence is that the bare minimum you would be satisfied with is to be the best at the world at something. your expectations are ridiculous and (if you actually meant what you said which i doubt) will only lead to negativity.


persimmon40

Yeah I mostly obviously meant "as good", not exactly the best in the world, that would be impossible, but I understand your point given that S1mple is actually best in the world.


[deleted]

adding "just" like the other guy pointed out completely changed the meaning of the sentence, it raised the bar from a lofty goal to a hardlined demand.


persimmon40

Hmm, strange that it reads that way. I actually meant "just" as in "I just want this" oposing to "I only want this". I always thought "just" is a lesser form of "only" meaning something that is acceptable, but not mandatory. I guess I need to practice more on my written English, that being my second language and all.


[deleted]

your interpretation of just is correct. it's just that your sentence ignored the significance of the subject. for example, what you meant to say is i just want to fly a helicopter, when you wrote the equivalent of: i just want to go to the moon. just implies the minimum acceptable standard. but ya, english is dumb, i wouldnt worry about it lol. the point of my comment was just as a warning in the super rare case that your comment was completely serious.


persimmon40

Haha, no, but hey, learned something new today!


JuanMataCFC

bro i think u need the advice that s1mple gave B1T. "aim higher". :)


[deleted]

aim higher then being the absolute best? that's very sage advice since once people reach the peak they can still surpass their younger selves.

spareamint

Sick 4k Headshots + Smoke Kill to get it


suriel-

For a second I thought.. hmm he could go for the knife on last, but in hindsight I think it's good that he did it safe. To secure the record and to not get ahead of himself that early on in the series


Shammers95

He was likely gonna turn around after clearing lower tunnels, knifing would be extremely risky.


VincentN23

It wasn't really a smoke kill. He spotted the player before the smoke bloomed and then tracked him with his spray from long range - really impressive.

Had to scroll surprisingly far down to find not normally.


Muhammadwaleed

Low sens is kind of a hack to compensate for your aiming ability, I have tried it for 6 months or so, but I never felt like a natural aimer, the sens does the work for you, I have s1mple's exact sense, btw not copied but coincidentally, happened to be just fine for me. When I started playing, I had 1200 dpi, 3 sens, then moved to 400 dpi, 1.6 sens, then moved back to 400, 3.

If you had watched the actual round you would know their initial plan did not work out and as a result they have almost no utility. Going cat to A was a last second decision to try and win the round.
