Offline-to-online adaptation serves as a pivotal paradigm for mitigating the prohibitive cost of online exploration by bootstrapping reinforcement learning from offline datasets. While this paradigm has been extensively studied in single-agent settings, its extension to Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning (MARL) remains largely unexplored, despite its critical relevance to complex coordinated decision-making. To bridge this gap, we introduce Sim2O, an elegant and minimalist framework for offline-to-online MARL. Rather than treating adaptation as a monolithic joint decision, Sim2O conceptualizes it as a compositional process. Specifically, candidate joint actions are synthesized by dynamically blending offline and online action proposals across agents. By leveraging a centralized value function to evaluate these hybrid combinations, Sim2O identifies high-value coordination strategies without requiring auxiliary training objectives or structural overhead. Empirical evaluations across diverse benchmarks demonstrate that Sim2O significantly outperforms existing baselines, underscoring that a minimalist design is not only viable but highly effective for multi-agent offline-to-online adaptation.
