When Ivan “iM” Mihai arrived home after lifting the first CS2 Major trophy today, he was greeted by a hero’s welcome as dozens of Romanian fans waited to cheer on the first Romanian player to win a Counter-Strike Major.
After chanting his name, the 24-year-old player for NAVI emerged through the gate to a dazzling cheer and celebrated with the numerous CS2 fans who were waiting in the terminal. On Twitter/X, iM commented on the homecoming with just one word: “Speechless.” Less than 24 hours prior, iM was in Copenhagen celebrating NAVI’s second Major trophy, the first CS2 Major trophy ever, and the first Major trophy won by a Romanian player.
