After the team entered the playoffs of PGL Major Stockholm 2021, the salary was raised by three thousand. Approximately 10 players (high level) each receive $40,000, 15-20 players receive $25,000, s1mple and NiKo earn over $50,000.
According to a 2022 report by HLTV.org, s1mple's annual salary was approximately USD 1.2 million. That makes him one of the highest-paid players in the CS:GO scene, and for a good reason – s1mple's incredible aim and game sense have earned him numerous accolades and titles over the years.
