[I got noticed because] I play a lot of scrims, try to get in the pro-games and stuff. That's sort of how I met Mongraal. So, I started playing with him... Then there was some channel on YouTube that started making like highlight videos of me and those got, like, billions of views and then that's how I got noticed. So, just keep grinding, I guess.
