Na’Vi star AWPer Oleksandr “s1mple” Kostyliev in his April 20 Twitch stream expressed shock when talking about the Astralis CS:GO lineup witnessed by him during practice.
The 23-year-old was initially speaking about the young Ukrainian rifler Valerii “B1T” Vakhovskyi, who recently replaced a long-standing member of the Na’Vi lineup Egor “flamie” Vasilev on the main roster for 2 upcoming tournaments.
“We were really, really surprised (to see) what players were playing for Astralis. When you find out (about) this, you will also be shocked, I promise.”
