S1mple About IEM Cologne 2022: "It's Just Another Tournament"

It's just another tournament. It has a great scene. It's just a championship with a great audience. I had three chances to win it.
We had a lot of time to prepare. We are trying to fix all our mistakes. We have many.

Kostylev told about the preparation for professional matches:

Because of experience, you know how it's best to prepare for important matches. For example I know how much time I need to spend on the server before a meeting. That's why I don't overplay. I think it's very important.
I stopped playing FPL before important matches. I sometimes overreact to different non-tier-1 players. I think it will work, I can also play an important meeting in the same style as the FPL. You just stand there because you know Loba will come at you (laughs).
