Natus Vincere (NAVI) is hosting the Born to Be Brave Counter Stike: Global Offensive charity tournament to raise money for Ukraine. The tournament will feature top players such as S1mple, sdy, and b1t.

As a Ukrainian team based in Kyiv, NAVI is organizing the event to help those affected. Four teams and 20 world-class players will face off in the Born to Be Brave tournament on December 22.

S1mple, who won PC Player of the Year at the Esports Awards 2022, is a Ukrainian national. The CS prodigy is set to give away a couple of personal items during the event to increase interest. In a recent video, S1mple invited the community to watch the tournament and donate to the charity:
