Hey there, enthusiasts of CS:2 esports! The excitement surrounding IEM Dallas and the BLAST.tv Austin Major just got a significant boost, courtesy of an impressive move by FaZe Clan. That’s right, the headline you’re reading is accurate: The legendary Counter-Strike player, Oleksandr “s1mple” Kostyliev, will be representing FaZe Clan in the next two competitions!
For the events IEM Dallas 2025 (May 19–25) and BLAST.tv Austin Major 2025 (June 2–22), Oleksandr “s1mple” Kostyliev is temporarily playing for FaZe Clan, filling in the AWPer role that was previously held by Helvijs “broky” Saukants. Broky was benched following FaZe’s subpar performance during the initial months of the 2025 season.
Without a doubt, it’s widely acknowledged that s1mple is considered one of the greatest CS:GO players ever, yet due to the ongoing conflict, he has reduced his involvement in CS:GO, only briefly joining Team Falcons in an unsuccessful bid to qualify for the Shanghai Major.
CSGOAT has returned to our team for the IEM Dallas and the Austin Major. Let’s give a warm welcome to @s1mpleO 🐰 (top predator)!

The FaZe Clan roster for both IEM Dallas and the BLAST.tv Austin Major looks like this:
- Finn “karrigan” Andersen (IGL)
- Håvard “rain” Nygaard
- Jonathan “EliGE” Jablonowski
- David “frozen” Čerňanský
- Oleksandr “s1mple” Kostyliev (Loan)
As a gamer, I’d say: After a tough decision to bench Helvijs “broky” Saukants, legendary Danish In-Game Leader, Finn “karrigan” Andersen, pulled off something akin to a Hail Mary by adding s1mple to the team. The future plans for s1mple post the BLAST.tv Austin Major are still uncertain at this moment.
Will s1mple seize the moment and surpass all predictions, or will FaZe Clan falter in both tournaments? I’m eagerly anticipating the outcome!
