Thorin compares s1mple and ZywOo in top form

CS2 analyst Duncan "Thorin" Shields has illustrated the difference between Aleksandr "s1mple" Kostyliev and Mathieu "ZywOo" Herbaut at their peak by posting two photos of finishing runners from the Olympics on social media platform X.

Thorin selected images that he believes visually represent the skill gap between the esports athletes and their competitors. In the first image, the leading athlete significantly outpaces the competitors, while in the second, the leader barely edges out the rest.

"Left: s1mple at his peak.

Right: ZywOo at his peak."

S1mple has been inactive since October 2023, participating in only one tournament with Team Falcons on loan. He remains under contract with Natus Vincere. ZywOo, on the other hand, is competing with Team Vitality and, by the end of the first half of 2024, is one of the three main contenders for the title of Player of the Year.
