G2's Niko and Navi's S1mple played each other in the final. S1mple came out with the major MVP, but maybe Niko deserved it more. I'll break down how unreal niko's performance at this major was, and make the case that he may have been the most impactful player at CS:GO's PGL Stockholm Major.

Niko's aim in this major was really something else, his mouse control was absolutely insane, despite all the pressure he was so deeply immersed into the game on an ultimate flow state i've never seen before, despite the deagle fail which can happen to anyone, I think he was the best aimer in this major.

yes he was s1mple confident against NIP when he got 19:3 if I remember right. But it was his game, his team : I think he was leading team this game as well (at least 80% g2 were rotating right and had 3b vs 4-5ts or 4a). BUT b1t is basically newbie (1st LAN, 2nd year with NAVI) with more then 71.5% hs (he almost had beaten record on major 74% and in semi or quarter final had more then 74%) so for me NIKO was ''turned ON'' now or never thing, but b1t was major best aimer.

@Jaxon Siemers The 1v1 between b1t and hunter happened basically at the same time, both were engaging that fight anyway. So it would be a 1v1 with niko having no armor and just a deagle while the bomb was planted for hunter, hunter had also armor, a kit, an m4 and 20 seconds left to defuse. So it would very likely a win for b1t anyway.

Current G2 is like former navi everything is dependent on niko , he is carrying huge pressure man . Navi isn't one man show anymore b1t is an insane rifler , a walking headshot machine . Electronic has lot of experience and really good rifler too and we have seen how good boom14 plays in clutch situations and perfecto is insane too . G2 doesn't have a reliable awper , nexa calling for last minute rotations and commits (which only works for navi ) is ruining it , Jackz is pretty good rifler but does some dumb shit from time to time

In addition to being igl, providing info, changing the pace of the game, he's become their 5th fragger. Compare him to the weakest link in any other team and that's where the biggest difference is...not between S1mple vs Zywoo or Niko.

BUT you guys forget what NIKO did sad on opening: "We gonna gamble with Ancient'', they lost ancient - it was the main fight. IF g2 would fight nuke in the beggining it could be closer and they would know there is another map (astralis 0:1in bo3 or 0:2 in bo3 - its ok we have our maps.

I think it was too easy for them to get in final so they collapsed / Navi was ready. Ofc it wasnt as easy as against Gambit, but it was 1:0 +nuke and they know they gonna take it!

Niko's situation now is what s1mple's situation was in Na'Vi before b1t, and probably more similar to how it was with Edward and Zeus. Sure, s1mple has better stats now but back then he was pretty much the guy who was initiating and ending rounds, while now with Na'Vi's system, he's pretty much taken over what device's role was in Astralis while also being mechanically better than everyone else.

The truth is that no matter how good a player is, cus both simple and niko are INSANLY good players, CSGO is just a 5team game. U won't win alone. The most dominant teams in their era : NIP, fnatic, Luminocity-SK,astralis were all dominant cus they were 5 people on those teams bringing results, not just 1.

Dude was literally the only reason G2 got that far, and the one time he truly fucks up his team isn't there to pick up the slack.

@@akhsdenlew1861 They're not bad players by any means, but when It comes to the upper echelon of current day csgo they are not a solid team. Chalk it up to chemistry, preparation, mental strenght or whatever, they came into the Major with only niko performing, and -like I said earlier- while every individual stepped up as the tournament went on it took monstruous performances from niko every single time. And as much as I might like Jackz and feel he looks like a really nice guy let's not forget both he and nexa were the most notable underperformers even against weaker opponents to the point there were rumors of them getting benched. Like you said, CS is a team game, and if s1mple is any indication you can't constantly rely on one guy's mechanics to win you every match, as harsh as it may sound. When you talk about this level of competition it's not about players being bad, rather not good enough.

I love watching niko play. No matter what, he is the most interesting player to play not just because of skill, but because he single handedly controls entire games. He reads his opponents, helps his team, hits crazy shots, everything goes his way unless he gets antistrated or a wiff (come on we have all had that happen, deagle shots at that range to the side/back of a target is like trying to get a wiff).

This video would have looked much better if you just focus on Niko's impact rather than comparing his impact to GOAT. Simple faced zywoo, shroo and didn't break a sweat to beat them. And Niko earned his respect by putting a stealer performance only second to simple.

The day before the final I knew G2 wouldn't win cause Amanek (their awper) hadn't played the previous matches as well as it would be needed to stop s1mple. And also because Niko hadn't awped the previous matches, so he wouldn't awp the final.

I would love to see a breakdown of Electronic in outer. Unfortunately S1mple wasn’t forced to carry like before, so we may never see peak hard-carry S1mple vs peak hard-carry Niko. Hopefully G2 as a team improves enough to go toe to toe with Na’Vi and we can see that in the future.

I use nikos sensitivity and have based my playstyle off watching him. I still think s1mple was better this major but it was so close its really splitting hairs, you could easily argue either way. Really sorry for niko not getting his major, he's the next player other than s1mple that really deserves a major. He fought so hard to get them here, really like vintage navi where s1mple had to hard carry or no win

All the analysis is definitely valid, and NiKo is undoubtedly a top tier player. But to compare NiKo to s1mple simply based on “higher impact with G2” than s1mple’s impact with Navi, is essentially comparing apples to oranges. S1mple has always been carrying Navi in previous years, and to compare NiKo with this champion Navi lineup is just irrelevant. NiKo’s impact during this major still can’t compare to s1mple’s impact when Navi was still an inconsistent team, and that is a fact.

That's the problem with G2, if N1ko dies early they lose a lot of confidence At least when S1mple dies he knows there's B1t and Electronic who can do something to win the round (and also Perfecto who is underrated) Only Hunter I think plays close to Nikos level of impact.

NiKo is not better but the margin between them is minimal in this major at least. The fact that s1mple still has a very high rating/production with competent teammates, speaks a ton about him. Niko's insane rating is actually reflecting on how inconsistent his teammates are. G2 better amp-up the supporting casts of Niko if they really want to get over that hurdle. Hunter and Jackz ain't shit, but I can honestly see the problem that electronic had during the 2018-2019 season wherein his performance wasn't consistent at all; Hunter and Jackz needs to improve that part of themselves because they can truly frag out, no doubt about it. Same thing can be said about amanek as well. Nexa is fine, his shot calling is good as is, he'll be wiser I'm sure. At the end of the day, Na'Vi was just better overall. Both Niko and Sasha actually deserves a Major title. I felt bad that Niko had to have that deagle moment that will surely stick for years to come.

If this were the case for measuring MVP's, S1mple wouldve been Major MVP in 2018 and 2016 for being solo carries to his teams in finals - i think MVP's should go to the brightest light in the winning team, so its fair s1mple got it. Commiserations to Niko, wp.

It really annoys me that people are flaming Niko for losing a 'guaranteed win' with the deagle wiff.. Bit was still alive, he killed Hunter at basically the same time, the idea that it was a forgone conclusion that G2 win the map if Niko kills Simple is ignoring the obvious fact that Bit is very capable of winning a 1v1 against an armour-less Niko with only a deagle and the bomb not planted for him.. Niko is pretty much the sole reason G2 even made it that far in the major, people need to get over it, sometimes people miss. Jackz wiffed a 1v1, Simple wiffed an awp shot on a static bomb planter, shit happens

i feel so sry for niko he was obviously doing all the yard pushes only for his team, and i am pretty sure he would prefer to play another position than sending him most of the time alone to yard, the dude was even self depended on him self in term of support, smoking moly and flashing for him self. He was the best who has to die first, so his mates can get some impact and space to play, otherwise g2 would not be able to win more than 4 rounds, wihtout niko

Yes sure niko performance was better for g2 because he was the only component that was making g2 win in the entire tournament but in simple case, he didn’t carry most of the major because he didn’t have to, then in that nuke and ancient where things got close, we can see that he wakes up in the second half. 72 kills in 2 maps of the grand final is godlike, but his performance isn’t eye catching because he is not forcing things most of the time.
