s1mple leaves NAVI

On July 28, NAVI announced the departure of s1mple from the team. Shortly after, BCGame officially confirmed the signing of the player.

The Ukrainian star will take over the sniper role, replacing nawwk, who was benched back in June. The updated roster now includes nexa, pr1metapz, CacaNito, and s1mple. jkaem and nawwk remain on the bench.

This transfer marks the end of s1mple's nearly nine-year journey with Natus Vincere. During this time, he won 17 major trophies, including the 2021 Major in Stockholm, one Intel Grand Slam title, and earned 21 MVP medals. In 2023, he stepped down from NAVI’s active lineup citing personal reasons, and in 2024–2025 played as a stand-in for Falcons and FaZe.
