Counter Strike players will soon be able to take lessons from S1mple

Last year wasn’t all that eventful for S1mple and there is a reason for that. The GOAT himself was working on an educational project. The project is named ALLSTARS Promotion and will feature exclusive lessons, tournaments and many more things.

The initial announcement was done during an HLTV interview, where he first trolled his fans by announcing his retirement. He later on said “I will retire, but not yet” further adding that he won’t let others take the HLTV top spot every year.

When is ALLSTARS Promotion coming?

Set to release in April 2024, the Counter-Strike pro for the last year has been working with his brother. The project is sort of a community where s1mple will likely coach players who want to excel in CS esports.

While proficient with all in-game weapons, he is known to be an AWPer main for NaVi. People looking to get tips on AWPing in-game might benefit the most. Further details are yet to be revealed as the short teaser was only for announcement.

1. Exclusive lessons created by s1mple himself
2. Practice sessions
3. Community tournaments

Not retiring but on a break

Last year, with the release of Counter-Strike 2, s1mple announced taking a break from competitive CS. This was caused by a lot of reasons, one being the project, likely. The other one is the CS2 launch issues.

Regarding his break, currently, there is no announcement as to when the pro will be back playing for NaVi. Since his focus seems to be on the project, the return may take some time.

Despite all the work, he still managed to secure a position in HLTV's top 20 rankings.
