GG for the last time.
With the year coming to a close and all tournaments I have been apart of finishing, I thought there would be no better time than now to announce my retirement from competitive CS:GO.
For almost two years I have juggled both full time work with a near full time job in CS. At some stage I knew I would have to give up gaming as my work for the family business has been steadily increasing.
There have been many up’s and down’s over the two years, but I wouldn’t change a thing.
It has been an amazing experience to be able to compete at huge tournaments domestically as well as a few international’s. It has been a wonderful opportunity to be able to live out most teenage boy’s dream of playing a game for a living.
To finish my career on a high with some nice wins over the last couple weeks has been an added bonus.
Thank you to my original teammates. @lushbadger @DickStacyy @syncdale & my current teammates @infrequeNtcs @MoeyCQ
With a special thank you to @TextaCS who has been apart of my CS through the majority of my career. I wouldn’t have been the player I was without the constant stress of not disappointing you.
As well as a thank you to @tucks403 for getting me onto my most successful part of my career on @ChiefsESC. The last 7 month’s haven’t been the smoothest but they have definitely been the most rewarding.
Thank you to Frank and Sheep who have made sure to look after me throughout the year with them.
And to everyone else I played with if only for a short period thank you. And to all the players I have played against, it has been a lot of fun competing against you all.
For now I will be happy sitting back as a spectator to cheer on the mates I have made along the way.
Thank you all. Good Luck & Have Fun.
