Gaming Origins
BorasLegend’s family moved to Sweden as refugees when he was a baby due to the war of independcence that was happening in Croatia at that time. He later joined the IF Elfsborg Youth Academy for football when he was seven years old and remained with them until he was fifteen years old when he sustained an injury that forced him to retire.
His father bought him a PlayStation 2 when he was a child, and he remained a PS player for most of his gaming career until he finally switched to an Xbox in 2019 after finding that FIFA had less lags on that platform. Some of his earliest games included Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly and Crash Bandicoot, among others.
Professional Gaming
BorasLegend first became involved in the pro-FIFA scene with FIFA 10, when he started competing in various LAN events, including DreamHack 2010. After winning a few other events, he decided to quit his job and drop out of university in order to pursue a career as a professional FIFA player and YouTube content creator in 2012. Fortunately for him, he was able to qualify for the 2013 Las Vegas Championships and won, which gained him the attention of various sponsors, as well as his first team the Copenhagen Wolves.
From there, he went on to compete and win many more tournaments and also transferred to various teams over the years. He finally started streaming on Twitch in early 2019 and has since grown a decent following on that platform.
Income
According to his Twitch chat bot, BorasLegend has ~275. As he averages ~1,200 viewers per stream, his minimum monthly income should therefore be at least $960 USD per month. This excludes other revenue that he receives from tiered subscriptions, advertisements, tips, team salary, Twitch cheer bit contributions, and sponsorships. EsportsEarnings estimates his lifetime tournament earnings to be at ~$173,000 USD.
