NAVI nominated for The Game Awards 2021
NAVI, s1mple, and B1ad3 have all been nominated in various categories at The Game Awards 2021.
It’s safe to say 2021 just keeps getting better for the Ukrainian esports organization and its members of the CS:GO team.
NAVI has gone on to win both the Intel Grand Slam Season 3 and the first CS:GO Major in two years, PGL Major Stockholm 2021 in the same year. And their achievements have not gone unnoticed, as two members of their CS:GO team have stormed into the list of finalists for The Game Awards 2021.
Aleksandr “s1mple” Kostyliev has been nominated under the category of “Best Esports Athlete”, while NAVI’s head coach Andrei “B1ad3” Horodenskyi has been nominated under the category of “Best Esports Coach”. As a result of the players and their coach hitting all the right notes, the Ukrainian organization has also been nominated under the category of “Best Esports Team” at The Game Awards 2021. It will be interesting to see how many of those categories they will be able to nab and take home with them.
The Game Awards 2021 will take place on December 9th in Los Angeles.
