At a press conference before the start of BLAST Fall Finals, Oleksandr “s1mple” Kostyliev gave his opinion on the latest update to CS:GO, where Valve decided to replace Dust2 with Anubis.
Anubis will replace Dust2 in the Active map pool
The Ukrainian pointed out the CT-heavy meta, and that more focus should be on countering that instead of switching out a map with a new unproven one.
– It feels weird when they leave maps like Ancient. They don’t change Ancient at all. They don’t understand. It feels like stupid people work at Valve. They don’t understand that the CT side is OP (overpowered). And they add another new map with a lot of bugs.
At the press conference, s1mple also revealed, that NAVI is testing out a NAVI Junior player, which is rumored to be 17-year-old Andrii “nipl” Kukharskyi.
