Natus Vincere has created a special clothing collection to celebrate Oleksandr “s1mple” Kostyliev’s four aces at IEM Cologne 2021, which set a new record for the most aces at a big CS:GO event—one that will surely be difficult to beat.
S1mple’s performances helped Na’Vi win the first premier CS:GO LAN since the start of the coronavirus pandemic. The Ukrainian superstar had an AWP ace against Renegades in IEM Cologne’s Group B upper bracket quarterfinal, two aces against Astralis in the Group B upper bracket final, and one ace against G2 in the grand finals. He averaged a ridiculous 1.51 rating throughout the tournament and was deservedly nominated the MVP of IEM Cologne 2021.
The two T-shirts Na’Vi created to celebrate s1mple’s achievement can be pre-ordered for €35 (roughly $41). The first one has the acronym GOAT (greatest of all time) featured on the left side of the chest and lists all of s1mple’s aces on the back, including the weapons he used to kill each player. The second T-shirt has four ace cards on the front, with the first one showing Na`Vi’s logo, and some writing on the back.
“Impossible for others. Easy for him,” the T-shirt reads. “S1mple set a new world record at IEM Cologne 2021. He has become the first player to get four aces in a big tournament. Sorry (not sorry), G2, Renegades, Astralis.”
Both T-shirts are made of 70 percent cotton, 20 percent polyester, five percent microfiber, and five percent elastane. Na’Vi says the orders will be shipped in 14 days.
