s1mple shared a story about mzinho:

"mzinho is the kindest person ever, and teammate ever, he is very kind, for example me or electroNic ex teammate had a birthday, mzinho doesn't say anything, no one gift you a gift, but mzinho just sent some good skin on Steam and he doesn't say anything, you go on your Steam before Prac, you see skin and mzinho says happy birthday, love you.

And you come to him and like 'mzinho' and you hug him, Ayush his name is Ayush, he's a very kind person."
