Former CS pro calls s1mple ‘the face of Russia’, prompting fiery blowback and quips
Jake “Stewie2K” Yip really stepped in it this time. The former North American Counter-Strike star commented on Oleksandr “s1mple” Kostyljev relatively benignly, calling him “the face of Russia” on stream. While normally this would be just a funny acute case of the average American’s geography knowledge, there is one glaring pain point: s1mple is Ukrainian, and Ukraine is still at war with an invading Russia.
