Since the release of CS2, one of the main missing pieces of the esports scene was s1mple, the greatest player of the Global Offensive era. For a long time, he has been in a contract jail and we didn't see him in action (except for the three-month loan to Team Falcons). Now, s1mple is back! He joins FaZe Clan on another loan and will help the team during IEM Dallas and Austin Major.

This loan can be a career-defining moment for the player (at least when it comes to CS2 era). Contract with NAVI is slowly but surely coming to an end, and s1mple would want to be in his best shape, when he is finally free. He will need to prove to everyone why he is the GOAT. Currently, he has been surpassed by ZywOo who has a phenomenal CS2 run with Team Vitality. Can s1mple come back? This will be quite a story to follow!

For FaZe Clan the timing couldn't be any better as well. Broky is playing very inconsistently, and for some time there has been a feeling that something's off. Also, former team partner of s1mple, EliGE, is still adapting to his team, so adding s1mple won't ruin too much of the team chemistry. As most of FaZe players are quite experienced, it shouldn't be a big problem. The hype train for the upcoming two months has departed, let's go!
