LFT. Finally decided to log back into twitter today. I honestly dont know what's going to happen in the next few months and most of it feels out of my control which sucks, but I do plan on continuing to compete in Valorant when I'm given an opportunity. This season was one of the hardest seasons for me not only because of the loss but because of how much hard work went into this project and us being forced to split up. I know people like to say that after working with each team but I truly think this was the team I put the most work into. The amount of struggles that we had to overcome and all the way until lower finals of Ascension coming back from being down 0-2. We wrote our own story this year regardless of the results I am proud of what we were able to accomplish together. As for the rumor going around that I will be swapping over to Deadlock full time: I have been playing Valve's new game Deadlock since May 2024 and have been one of the highest rated players in the closed beta. Since it has become public now and I have seen a lot of people asking what I want to do with it I feel like I should address how I feel about the game. I really believe it will become a huge esport with due time. I know orgs that are going to be all over it when it releases and I seriously cannot wait for the esports scene to start up for this game. However this game has no timeline as for release date or any big tournaments so for me it feels almost impossible to go full time into it atm and drop my love for competing in Valorant. However if an opportunity comes where I can build a deadlock team for an Org? Maybe. Final thoughts: I proved to myself that I could compete in the tier 1 space this year with how I played during the season and by beating out all of your favorite "Tier 1" initiators to earn the M80 spot in the trials. Even though we couldn't get to the league together I still plan on making it there one way or another. Whether I have to build another team from the ground up in T2 or earn a spot through rigorous trials again. You name the challenge and I'll be there to take it on as always. Life has knocked me down so many times and I do not plan on giving up on my dream anytime soon. It hurts so much that AGAIN I have to sit here and write a post about how my team (legit my second FAMILY) is getting split up due to the nature of franchising and limited player slots. It feels exactly like how I felt when XSET was forced to break up and I can't even begin to describe how much it hurts for all of that hard work to go to waste. One thing is for certain. I know my value and I know what I can bring to any team. I make the environment fun and enjoyable to grow and learn, I make you work a little bit harder each day, I make the clutches seem easy and most importantly I make your favorite team a little bit better. With Love, BcJ.

This year was a difficult one for me to process. At the start of the year I had to leave the first org that took a chance on me in Valorant (XSET). The XSET Valorant guys lead by Marco and Syyko were my family, and when we found out what Riot wanted to do for partnership it left us all terrified that we wouldn't be together going into the 2023 season. That left me to look for offers on my own, and thankfully I landed on a starting roster spot with Evil Geniuses. Things weren't great at first but we made a lot of improvements over the course of my tenure on the roster. In the end we weren't improving fast enough during the regular season of VCT and I was chosen to play with the reserve roster so that the main team could experiment with new role changes and bring in Demon1 on duelist. This was very hard for me to deal with at the time. There were definitely times I thought I deserved to play and yet there were also times where I felt like I should've asked to role swap. Regardless I accepted the challenge with the reserve roster (Apoth, Reformed, Screwface, and Coach Zeck) lead by Coach Zeck and IGL Screwface. Initially when I joined I had taken over Demon1's spot. That came with a few unexpected challenges for the already formed team that I had just joined. We needed to find a new duelist player and that's where Icy came in to fill->trial for us and eventually was signed full time later on. After finding our 5th with roles that fit all of us. We started to build the foundation that would last the entire year for our strategy, communication and agent compositions. We had to play all types of different comps because we would help prep the main team against certain teams specifically. Which presented a new challenge for us but ultimately helped us individually learn a ton of new agent flex possibilities. We quickly got better both inside and outside the server and we ended up having very close bonds with one another that will last for many years to come. In the end I'm so thankful to have been treated so well by the reserve guys. Through thick and thin we all cared about each other and made sure we all wanted to show up every day to improve and have fun. Towards the end of our tenure together we were playing exceptionally well against the VCT partnered and champions 2023 teams in scrims. Which had gained us a ton of respect through ScrimBux™. ;) The last thing I wanted to touch on was how amazing each of my reserve teammates were this year. They might not have the biggest brands or names in the scene yet, but they are more than deserving of trials this upcoming season. Apoth came in as one of the original members of EG and chose to stick with the organization to help build the reserve roster and move out to LA with the team. He broke out of his shell this year and became one of my favorite teammates that I've played with. Always brought great energy and strategy when asked. Constantly providing insane input at just the right time to stop arguments from happening and getting us back on track. While having this insane trait he was also one of the best preforming Controller players in the region. There were not many times he got showed up by the opposing controller. Reformed was someone I had already had a prior connection with before even joining the team. (Being the cousin of AYRIN) We quickly became closer than ever and he ended up becoming one of the key pieces to our success. After playing Flex for EG in 2022 he ended up finding his true calling on Sentinel. He became an amazing asset to have when it came to crafting all of these compositions because of his experience playing multiple roles. In this meta its so important to have players like this. He is one of the most dedicated players that I've ever met with so much passion to dominate the opposition. Screwface was the IGL of the team. He took over a huge part of our strategy and came in with big energy every single day we played. Constantly made sure we showed up with the same hunger as him to beat these franchised teams and reminded us daily how important it could be for the future of all of our careers to impress others even while being on the reserve roster. His presence and overall likeability throughout the team carried our mental in and out of the server. Which every team MUST have to be in the Tier 1 space nowadays. He is the living embodiment of "Lead by Example". Icy was the last player to join the team, and the player I spent playing the most with outside of scrims. I became so close with him this year and I can't wait to see how much damage he can do next year wherever he lands. One of the most mechanically skilled Duelist/Sentinel prospects on the market with such a good head on his shoulders. He's one of the kindest souls I've met in esports and that can be a hard trait to find for your duelist role. He started the year as an already top 10 ranked leaderboard Killjoy player with scrim/LAN experience and ended the year as one of the best young duelist prospects I have met. Willing to play almost any agent we asked of him while also consistently out fragging world class star duelist players. Zeck was a key integral piece in our success as a roster. When it came to connecting with the organization or scheduling all of our practices with Kurt. He was always on it and always came in with something that made us better each day. He was a former player as an IGL and turned into an Analyst/Coach with FaZe/TSM. He came into our team as our sole head coach and grew into the role beautifully. I am so confident that he could lead/develop the next generation of star players and I can't wait to see what role he takes on going into next year. Every single one of these guys mean so much to me and quickly became my family over the course of this year. I hope to see all of them get the opportunities they deserve going into 2024. They will make your team better no matter where they land. I'm blessed to have had this opportunity to have met them and my door will always be open for them. Thank you for reading this far and I can't wait to see what VCT 2024 will look like for all of us. "Let's get to work, and let's be great today." <3
