s1mple: "NAVI had no time to prepare our new game with me"
In an interview with the organizers of ESL Pro League Season 16, NAVI's AWPer Oleksandr "s1mple" Kostyliev commented on the result of his team in the group stage, where Natus Vincere lost three out of five matches and risked not making the playoffs. According to him, the reason for the shaky performance was his absence from the squad's pre-season training.
We had no time to prepare our new game with me because they had bootcamped with headtr1ck. It's good that we qualified. There were some unexpected losses against Endpoint, Vitality and NIP, so yeah, just need more time to practice and hopefully next time we will beat them.
At the same time, s1mple clarified that the team has no plans to gather for a bootcamp ahead of the playoffs starting in three weeks.
Representing Group A in the ESL Pro League Season 16 playoffs besides NAVI will be Vitality and fnatic. The trio of leaders eliminated Team Spirit, NIP and Endpoint.
