From becoming one of Call of Duty’s biggest rising stars to winning championships, it is hard to believe it’s already been a year since Chris ‘Simp’ Lehr became a pro player – and he’s just getting started.

Since turning pro back in March 2019, Simp has been one of the most consistent players in the scene. He has already helped the Atlanta FaZe side to two championship victories, putting them second in today’s standings just behind the Chicago Huntsmen.

The former rookie of the year believes that there are potentially two main candidates for the title this year, Anthony ‘Shotzzy’ Cuevas-Castro and Makenzie ‘Mack’ Kelley, but he is wary of picking one just yet since the former hasn’t played on LAN.
