This is what some of the other players, talents, teams, and the community had to say about Na'Vi lifting the trophy at IEM Cologne 2021.

CS:GO Recognized Na'Vi Winnings IEM Cologne 2021
They might not be too good at communicating with the community but when it comes s1mple leading Na'Vi to such a brilliant victory, even they felt compelled to recognize it.
S1mple - GOAT
If there was one thing that everyone whole heartedly agreed upon it was that s1mple is the one true god of Counter-Strike, as he was repeatedly called GOAT by multiple teams and personalities.
Hiko Appreciates S1mple
Former CS:GO and current 100 Thieves Valorant player Spencer "Hiko" Martin who is highly appreciated by s1mple and was one of the members of his 'Dream Team' had nothing but good words to say about the star AWPer.
Carlos Was Ready With The Memes
Founder of G2 Esports Carlos "ocelote" Rodriguez was on top of his meme game as usual, as he explained why they were G2 following the '3-0' defeat.
Pimp Gave a Good TLDR of The Grand Final
Jacob "Pimp" Winneche was there to wrap up the highlights of the Grand Finale announcing well in advance that s1mple was the MVP, which was kind off obvious.
