Despite losing in the ESL Pro League S18 finals, Alexander "s1mple" Kostylev is the best player in CS:GO history in terms of individual honors. According to the results of all tournaments, the legendary NAVI player earned 21 MVP medals, which is a record in this version of the game.
Alexander's closest pursuer is Nikolai "dev1ce" Ritz, with Mathieu "ZyWoo" Erbo closing the top three players individually.
The best year in terms of MVP awards won for s1mple was 2021. Back then, the NAVI were winners at eight tournaments, the same number of medals taken away by a Born to Win player.
We believe that Alexander will earn no less awards in CS2! #ObsessedWe
