At the end of the day, all the prep in the world still comes down to 1 day, 1 series, 1 map, 1 round. Frustrated by the way we ultimately chose to draft the series, but credit where due, the SEN players were incredible today. I don't know a team in the world that can surmount a 3 v 12 clutch deficit and that's what they presented us with series-wide. Regardless, I'm proud of what the boys have managed to achieve in spite of our challenges. Hiro's ability to perform with the team into a global playoff should earn him more respect than will ever fit in a single post, and the rest of the boys cemented after a year of hardship they're still some of the best to touch the game. I'd been continuing my work with FNC past my contract to see this event through. With this though, I am once again a free agent. Going to take the rest of the event to enjoy KR but my DMs are open and I'll be on the hunt for a AC/SC role for the off-season into 2025. GGs everyone

With Champions coming to a close, so to does my contract with Fnatic. Unfortunately, with only unpredictable short-term contracts as income this year I'm in a position where without a more-stable opportunity, 2023 Champions is all but certain to be the swan song of my VALORANT career. Hemorrhaging savings while you invest your heart and soul into being the best at your craft only works if someone's eventually willing to pay you for it, and at some point it's time to face the music. With the end of the line realistically looming at the start of this Fall, I'm appropriately giving it "One More." I am an unrestricted free agent looking for coaching and strategic roles. I'm also qualified for and would consider managerial and operations positions depending on organizational fit. I can be reached at [email protected] for inquiries.
