Shroud and s1mple are two such pro players that have really earned the respect of many pro gamers around the world.
Valorant pro Shroud refutes comparison with s1mple on Counter-Strike: Global Offensive
Recently a clip surfaced on Twitter that claimed Shroud is better at Counter strike: Global offensive than s1mple. In the video a streamer can be seen arguing with a fellow gamer, saying “the Sh*t that Shroud can do in CS, s1mple can never do,” while the other player refutes and says “You are F**cking stupid.”
The streamer then goes on to say that “s1mple is very good at taking 1v1s, Shroud is equally good in my opinion, but the multi-fragging potential with Shroud is way higher with him. Like if multiple guys are on the screen, Shroud has a chance of killing them way way better than s1mple”.
Now for those unaware, the term frag is used for a kill amongst counter-strike players and multi-fragging means killing numerous opponents.

This just goes to show the respect that shroud holds for his fellow gamer.
Fans of both professionals have gone to an all-out war
Fans of both stars have taken to the internet to voice their opinion. While some are appreciating Shroud’s respectful response, others are saying that it is not just passion that counts and there is a lot of this at play.

Shroud COULD'VE been better but he wasn't, he didn't work that hard like s1mple has
you can tell s1mple wanted it more always
he wasn't always the player that he is rn
this takes time and effort
Ps.this is coming from a big time shroud fan been following him since the cs days— Modricano (@Modricano) December 10, 2022

Absolutely not lol. S1mple is the most gifted player to ever touch CS. Everyone knew he was a prodigy, even when he was on HR. Shroud has fantastic fps talent, but his skill ceiling is twistzzz at max
