My Original Post for quitting got deleted so ill use this as reference for thanking everyone joining me on my journey competing in VALORANT from 2020 till now. Also wanted to add a few more names.
@zekkenVAL @ScrewFaceVAL ive reached out to you guys for 2023-2024 for how i can come back to competing and give my name some relevance so I can try to push tier 2 again. I still thank you so much for even msging me back and helping me out through the years asking for advice.
@TrickAIM i can say the same and many of my old friends from way back then.
@Nurfed tysm for reaching out after ive been teamless for months you pushed me to keep on going because I thought no one was recognizing who i was anymore with the accomplishments and teammates I use to play with in the past. You told me "people watch silently, i know shits tough but you got it, promise ya dude. have a good night" and it really made me not give up and lastly
@VertexPsyc helped me the most with trying to pursue Valorant and give me advice with collegiate in canada and in the states. Im happy im still able to communicate and ask you question for what I can and should do for my future regarding with Valorant and educational needs. Throughout the year of 2023 to 2024 These people ive reached out and contacted or received a msg has helped me push more to the point that i started to sabotage or ruin other peoples chances to compete due to my financial ties and commitments to my life. and with that reason alone isnt why Im quiting but its just been to dam long.
@ExaltVAL once said in a post 1-2 years ago or in a doc video. "theres joy in competing but no matter how long you continue theres also the chance that you may not make it and you just have to face it" I lost most of my years being in my 20s and im 24 in august. I want to have a thoughtful year and a better future before pushing on ideas or ways for me to make a living through gaming alone. and its those words now i live by because i now know that Its about the right time I should step back and see how things fold. I really REALLY thought with the people ive use to play with in 2020 and experience i hold with how valorant has been played for years. I really thought that i may have a upper hand as well compared to new comers but examples like
@Demon1___ and i can even mention
@exaVAL_ and other people I cant rmr to mention as of right now are players that didnt even have a year of experience in the game but surpassed me with acknowledgement and how they speak and get their name known to other players and with their skill of course. And theres so much more players aside from them that continue and surpass me even further even tho I thought to myself that I not just had more experience but connections due to who i was in the past/played with/ex teammates/etc.... So at the end of 2023 i came to a conclusion and made a video of me quiting because i knew after watching those 2 players and much more surpass me which ive never thought that could happen. made me realize that, 1. i may not have the gift 2. i have the passion 3. but i cant just waste my life away not doing what i love correctly and or putting more effort compared to other players and just continually doing the same wacky things like small montages and videos. I bet 1 whole year could go by in 2025 and id be in the same position as i was in 2023 after team revenge had disbanded. id also love to tag em
@itzHernando @welyyval @codyjnguyen @zekeiVAL in the year 2022 you guys def made not just my career but made me so much happy getting to a spot in valorant competitive ive never thought id reach. tysm for sharing the server and giving me more experience to continue on and im glad that even tho its been 2 years since then. you guys were still 1 of the best players ive met and i wouldnt trade it for anything. im sure we would have gone to challengers if we stayed together. I love the val community and everyone i mentioned and so much more theres atleast 100s of tier 2-3 players ik but i cant mention em all but all i can say is Good Luck with your future endeavors. I will try to make a living with pushing into cyber security or iT. also my last goal is definitly to hit Rank 1 in Valorant because come on, surely I can hit that right?
I wana thank everyone thats been on my journey since i picked up valorant in april 2020. and thank everyone watching my montage, i was tryna show redemption and commitment in that video i made from my first tourny clip vcs to my last vct clip. watching the past makes me cry im ngl. the amount of fun and changed thats happened is crazy. But i wana thank every single person and player in that small friend circle back in kvl and tricks 10s. to everyone that i started to compete with and im glad you guys got signed or had a home at the time. im sure if you guys saw the vcs clip. it must have hit alot emotionally, as well it did for me editing that into the video. i dont need a twit longer and i dont need to @ names cuz ill be naming over 100 people. but if you know who you are, just know i loved playing with you guys. thats all that can be said, but nah fk it
