Pengu

He has a brother and a cat.

He combined the first couple of letters of his favorite animal (penguin) with his favorite color (Blue), and then contracted it to Pengu.

Pengu was introduced to video games when he was dour years old by his stepfather who worked in IT and was very into computers and vide to games when he was growing up. From then on, he had always dreamed of entering the pro-scene, but only saw it as being a real possibility when Tom Clancy’s: Rainbow Six: Siege (R6S) was released when he was attending university.

Prior to R6, Pengu attempted to break into the Counter-Strike (CS) and League of Legends (LoL) scenes, but realized that they were far too established for him to get a foot in it. Therefore, when R6 released, he decided to grind it, as the meta hadn’t yet been established and he felt that it would be easier for him to be noticed.

In 2015, he joined a team that went on to win a tournament, but then failed to perform for the rest of the year. At that stage, he had though that his career was over, but then got an offer to join both a French team, as well as PENTA Sports. As his French wasn’t so good, he decided to go with PENTA, especially as there were players on the roster that he had teamed up with in the past.

Pengu’s gamble paid off and he was signed on with PENTA Sports during R6S’s first season in 2016 on a contract basis. They went on to win the Pro League Year 1 Season 1 Finals and went on to have a nine month-long winning streak. He and his team then transferred to G2 Esports in August 2018, when they bought the whole roster from PENTA Sports. The team was happy with this move, as they received long-term contracts which gave them peace of mind to fully focus on their training.

He is dating @RyyFyy.

According to his Twitch overlay, Pengu has ~2,460 subscribers with an average viewership of ~2,500. Therefore his minimum monthly income should be at least $8,610 USD per month. This is before he receives further income from tiered subscriptions, donations, his team salary, advertising, Twitch cheer bit contributions, sponsorships, merchandise sales and tournament winnings. He has been given ~$7,715 USD by his top 10 donators alone. EsportsEarnings places his lifetime tournament winnings at ~$344,000 USD.
