[In order to become a pro player,] first of all you need tons of luck. You need the right person at the right spot when something good happens. I think for me, and most of the people on the team, we started playing Siege when it was still young. Nobody really cared about the game. And we started getting better and better, and people noticed, ‘oh, we’re goo at the game!’ And then we start forming up the teams and when you’re already good at something early, no matter how many new people come in, there won’t be a big amount of them that come up to the top because it’s already so established… There is no shortcut, you have to grind.

One of the most important aspects of being a leader is to always put the team before yourself. I think that is really important for everyone, to be honest… because at the end, it doesn’t matter if you score 25 kills to 5 deaths, if you lose the game, you’ve lost the game and you don’t go to the championship.
