Oleksandr ‘s1mple’ Kostyliev of Natus Vincere took home the PC player of the year award, having recently won his first CS:GO Major. On the controller side of things, Call of Duty player Chris “Simp” Lehr of Atlanta Faze took home the award, having led Atlanta FaZe to a first place in the CDL Championship 2021. The Atlanta FaZe would also go on to win Team of the Year, while 100 Thieves got awarded the Organization of the Year award.

Five years ago I felt like I was stagnating and failed to grow, I never imagined to win Host of the year once, let alone TWICE…
