Could s1mple from NAVI play Astralis or Vitality? Thorin thinks so

Duncan 'Thorin' Shields shared on his Twitter account his opinion on Alexander 's1mple' Kostylev, who plays at NAVI. In his opinion, s1mple is the main reason for Natus Vincere's success, and if Nikolay 'dev1ce' Ridtz or Mathieu 'ZywOo' Erbo had played in his place, NAVI would hardly have been able to show good results.

Thorin asked all the inhabitants of eSports considering s1mple cause defeat in a match, call him at least one Russian-speaking players who could replace Alexander NAVI and make more successful. He also said that in his opinion, replacing dev1ce or ZywOo with s1mple would not harm the teams.

The audience reacted to this statement in different ways. Someone supported Duncan, and someone drew attention to the fact that s1mple does not know French or Danish, which will prevent him from performing in Vitality or Astralis as well as in NAVI. In addition, viewers believe that the reason for the hypothetical inability to replace s1mple on the part of dev1ce or ZywOo lies in the same language barriers that will be created during the game.
