Only 1% of my average viewers saw it so I'm posting it again while I work on fishing more videos, but, for those who did see this video though, I'm sorry! ,I have a new fresh video coming this monday though! And I think it's a real good one. Also for those who ask for the streams, Live streaming this Friday, 4pm EST. Love ya lads, thanks for all the support

After the moment xPeke did that backdoor and ocelote cried, ocelote's career as esports player ended. He started full time streaming instead and become top streamer in Twitch. Earned a lot of money and invested to create his own esports team called Gamers2. After 2 years of hard effort and finding new super talents like Perkz, that team finally made to eu lcs, And ocelote changed the brand name as G2. Destroyed xPeke's team, origen and you know the rest of the story. His life in esports is worth to make a video imo

Es duro que, cuando eres el rey del mundo seas vencido tan convincentemente partidas siguientes para no volver a salir adelante. Muchas temporadas intentandolo, pero no lo consigues lograr. Todos son uno, serán los mejores, pero solo uno puede pasar, y tener que traicionarse entre sí es destrozante. Ver cómo tu carrera de algo que más te encanta tenga que verse interrumpida por el deber de tu nación... Y saber si volverás. Es apaleante que una imprevista jugada termine tu carrera. Y sobre los dos excluidos: Una gran carrera, pero que tenga que verse terminada probando algo que jamás has sentido y que sintieron todos tus adversarios, en especial el que te venció al que venciste el año pasado y quién casi te roba la corona... Y tener que ser ellos es aún más duro. Y peor: Tener que retirarse sabiendo que decepcionaste a tus fans, pero que ellos comprenden que te esforzaste. Al final, los Jugadores Professionales son humanos.

Saddest moment for me was when I played mid for the first time in a solid year, I played a few years of mid but I stopped and spent 4 years supporting. So these game just recently, I scored an S+ on every game and I thought why on Earth did I stop playing mid? I'm sorta good at it without any practice in a full year... but when the team fights came around my team would always individually die off and I lost every single game... When I go mid, I always get the worst supports on the planet and both the support and adc end up irrelevant, while the enemy adc is a a god... And in my crappy college team, we don't have any good supports (in the college) so I'm the designated support FeelsBadMan
