  When we got married I promised my wife she’d always be the person I’d love most… I didn’t think I’d break my promise less than a year later. I’m going to be a dad. https://t.co/0RUiKndSLa

  My wife came up to me this morning, furious. She pointed towards her pyjamas and told me that while she slept, our cats shit on her stomach. I kept silent. What my wife doesn’t know is that it wasn’t the cats; It was me. After playing League of Legends for 17 hours yesterday, I wanted to prove myself that I was the ultimate grinder by twerking on her while she slept. Little did I know the tacos we ate earlier that day would come back to haunt me.

  Polymarket deleted their tweet because they wanted to stop the backlash they were getting for it. I won’t let them. Prediction markets, and polymarket specifically are disgusting sites who only exist because enough people lose money on them that it keeps them running. The normalization of this website, especially within the League of Legends community, is one of the most alarming things that has happened in recent years. League creators are getting paid hundreds, if not thousands per quote tweet, as well as 5 figure monthly salaries to promote them on stream and it’s at a point now where this is just accepted. It shouldn’t be. Prediction markets, gambling websites, and sports betting sites are willing to shill tens of thousands of dollars to content creators because they know the viewers of said creator will lose infinitely more than they pay for the sponsor. How can this be okay? Money, especially in this economy, is hard to come by. But throwing your viewers and the people who support you under the bus because you want to make a few thousand extra every month should inspire criticism, not acceptance. Fuck Polymarket, and fuck the people who run the account for trying to use mine and my wife’s pregnancy announcement for their own benefit and everyone else’s demise. https://t.co/AlYmv1eh5f https://t.co/ARi8xHpHU2 https://t.co/I2mMhnmb7w

  3 months ago I considered quitting streaming full-time after doing it for the last 7 years. It was consistently getting worse and worse month by month for 3 years straight, and it had gotten to a point where I realized that as I’m getting older, and especially now that I’m a husband (and someday a father) that I shouldn’t be wasting my time doing things that don’t give me a return on my time investment. And so, on a random day in late March, I had a sit-down conversation with my wife and told her that I’d direct all my efforts into really trying to make it on YouTube instead and that since my streams were already doing badly, cutting my hours by two thirds and dedicating that to recording videos instead would be a better use of my time. She tried convincing me that the only thing missing from my streams was the spark of motivation and hunger that I once had and that I should just try harder, but none of her input swayed me because in my mind my path was already decided… A few days later Jynxzi started playing League of Legends and asked me if I wanted to be his coach. Since then, life has felt like a blur. For the first time in forever I feel happy, motivated, and content simultaneously. I wasn’t even planning on making a post about this, but after taking a few days off work to go on a true vacation with my wife and then coming back home and realizing that I haven’t felt stressed out at all by the lack of streams recently it really set in for me how different things really are nowadays, and for that I wanted to take a second to thank all of you for making that, and all of this, possible. The scariest part of it all wasn’t hearing people tell me on a daily basis that I had fallen from a point that I’d never get back to; It was believing it. And so to my wife Laura, to Jynxzi, to my family, to my friends, to those who have always stuck around as well as those of you who are starting to stick around; Thanks for helping me believe in myself again. It means more than you know. I can’t wait to continue to give you all the best version of myself, and my content, that I possibly can.

  Seeing all these people shitting on Hytale is genuinely insane to me. - Game gets announced 9 years ago, one of the most hyped up games ever - Developer makes 20 million from selling Hytale to Riot, can literally retire for the rest of his life - Riot runs Hytale into the ground over the course of years, community gets strung along for the ride - Riot CANCELS Hytale, community is in complete shambles - Developer comes out of retirement when he and his wife recently started a family to try and save the game, makes a bid and reacquires the IP - Bid gets accepted, dev spends months away from family to undo all the years of bad development so the game can become playable asap - Sets a release date that’s super early because although he knows the game is extremely unfinished, he wants to get it out asap so the community can finally play it - Spends WEEKS telling everyone how unfinished the game is to temper everyone’s expectations but promises consistent updates - Game releases, half the people are shitting on it because it’s unfinished and they say it’s not worth $20 - ??? I haven’t played the game yet because I wanted to wait until it was a little more complete, but seeing all the discourse actually makes me want to play it sometime this week. Regardless though, it’s genuinely insane to me that this game is already so ahead of its time even in early access that people are legitimately comparing it to MODDED MINECRAFT (a modded version of a finished game that’s been out for 20 years) and think that they’re valid for doing so. Keep up the great work @Simon_Hypixel , as someone who wanted to play this game since I was 16 years old because I always loved games like Minecraft and Cube World, I’m thankful that there has come a point in my life where I actually am able to. People are always going to look for reasons to hate on everything; don’t let the negative noise drown out the fact that starting yesterday, you were able to fulfill a dream millions of people have had for almost a decade now of finally being able to play your game.

  For weeks people have been telling me I’m not qualified to be Jynxzi’s coach because I’m a "Masters Hecarim one trick" Today, I hit Challenger using his favorite champion to prove them all wrong. https://t.co/DNifK4rJev

  Seeing looksmaxxing become a mainstream talking point after initially discovering it years ago on incel/blackpill subreddits and forums actually feels surreal. Genuine advice for all the men that follow me, please read this post before buying into any of it. It could genuinely save your life. Put yourself in my shoes for a minute; At 16 years old you have no dating experience whatsoever. One day, you stumble upon a YouTube video taking about inceldom and although you find the idea of it so absurd, it’s presented in such an entertaining way that you can’t stop watching. After the video ends, you search up the term online to find more resources on the matter and in doing so, become obsessed with redpill, blackpill, and incel subreddits for months. Eventually the posts stop being purely entertainment for you, and you resonate with some of what’s being said. Months pass. At 17 you think no one will ever love you for being you, so as a result you dedicate your everything, for years, to being the kind of person that can experience that love; You workout every day, You work hard towards the actualization of your career every day, And with everyone you meet, you try to put yourself in their mind to figure out how to best approach situations in order to better their idea of you. Along the way, every negative experience and heartbreak only reinforces the ideas that were present in your mind, pushing you further down the rabbit hole. And then, years later, when you finally end up ‘making it’ you doubt the intentions of every single person you ever meet because you hate the very idea of them liking you now because they would’ve never liked you back then. Paranoia and anxiety don’t become traits that you possess, they become the very center of your being. Your entire existence takes on a grey undertone so severe that you become even less the person you once were in such a way that you isolate yourself completely from who you are at your core. You separate yourself from your hobbies, Your interests, Your family, And your friends; And in walking this path that makes you feel worse the further along you trudge across it, you believe that the only way forward is forward. At 21, things hit a peak. After years of struggling and finally making it to the top of your industry you turn the cameras off and, while living out your literal childhood dream, feel nothing but hollowness as you drift off to sleep every night. You realize that after years of being hurt, you’ve slowly turned into someone who also hurts others and, while hating it, feeling enough comfort in it that you continue down that path. At 22, in an ultimate act of mental instability and foolishness you break things off with the only person you ever felt true comfort with because your mind convinces you that you’re undeserving of what you found and must rededicate yourself because maybe, just maybe, if you push yourself further you’ll feel deserving of love. And then at 23, after she decides to work together with you and help you realize just how problematic your mindset has become for not only yourself, but all those you love, you finally go to therapy. You spend months there, restrengthen the bond you had with your girlfriend, start dating again, propose, and get married. And then, at almost 24, you feel more at peace than you ever have before after having not only found acceptance for yourself, but also committed yourself towards working on the negative traits in your personality that actually need to be fixed. This entire concept is a trap that strings some people along for not only years, but decades at a time. What’s the point of having all the knowledge in the world if the only thing it does is make you hate your existence inside of it? Ironically, most people that end up getting into this rabbit hole only do so because they believe they’ll never be able to find someone who loves and accepts them for being them, and as a result they stray so far from who they are at their core that they end up turning their biggest fear into their most likely reality. Yes, the dating pool is hard nowadays. Yes, social media has warped peoples perceptions of what is ‘normal’. Yes, there IS a male loneliness epidemic. But, as someone that for years went down that rabbit hole, no matter how much research you do, how attractive you become, or how many people you sleep with, no amount of looksmaxxing or red pilling will ever make you happy. You’ll render yourself somewhat immune to the hurt that you’ll experience throughout your life, but in doing so you’ll not only limit the amount of comfort and happiness that you’d regularly be able to feel with your partner, but you’ll also inevitably end up hurting genuine people in the process as well. You’ll become so obsessed with the idea of what people’s idea of you is that you cease to even exist in your own mind. Your personality won’t be a unique blend so in tune with who you are that you can cultivate a close circle of those that genuinely like and appreciate you for being you, and will rather end up becoming a cardboard cutout that while being able to appeal to more people, will only ever bring you surface level relationships that either never last or never go beyond the surface-level. As much as I wish it weren’t the case, the only way to truly ‘ascend’ is to become okay with the idea of being hurt; Being rejected, Being heartbroken, Being mentally shattered for months, And being willing to give all of you, once again, to the next person you believe whose intentions will be true. That’s not to say you shouldn’t self-improve, however. Working on your career, your physique, your hobbies, and yourself is, and will always be, admirable. But turning your entire way of being into that of someone who just wants the approval of others and the confidence boost that comes with it can only ever end disastrously. Always remain true to who you are.

  I’ve always loved working hard. 12 hours a day spent sitting in front of a computer, grinding towards goals that I would set didn’t just feel natural; It felt like my purpose. So much so that for many years I always thought that’s all I would ever be good for. When you go from overweight to fit, from broke to wealthy, from the bottom to the top in any sense of the phrasing, there’s a harsh reality you come to learn. You get treated differently. Your defining trait in the eyes of others doesn’t come from who you are, but rather what you are. You become a what, not a who. For any of you who have followed me for years, you’ve all heard me talk about this a countless amount of times. There’s something I haven’t talked about countless times, though. In fact I don’t think I’ve ever even talked about it once; In reality, the saddest thing wasn’t coming to terms with becoming a ‘what’ in the eyes of others. It was coming to terms becoming a ‘what’ in my own eyes. I didn’t just strive for becoming the best streamer, the best league player, or the most athletic person I could because I thought they were cool goals to strive for, I strove for them because I thought that those things were the only things I could ever offer anybody else. It’s part of the reason why, only a few years ago, I told people I wouldn’t get into any kind of relationship until my late 20s at the earliest. I fell for the trap that many men fall for; Become disappointed that people don’t want you because of your personality, focus years of your life accumulating material wealth, and then become even more disappointed when anybody you try being with only want you because of the one thing you’ve spent years chasing. Seems silly when I type it out, doesn’t it? “I’ll forgo building relationships until I’m at the top, then I’ll settle down” Becomes, “I don’t want to settle down with anyone because everyone around me only wants me because I’m at the top” With how I was living my life throughout my late teens and early 20s this was bound to be my future. In every measurable aspect of my life I was making leaps of progress. My body, my career, my notoriety. Yet even when I would peak and hit milestones that would’ve brought a younger me to his knees in adoration of the life I was living and the things I was accomplishing… I would feel nothing. Short moments of happiness and elation, followed by long stretches of emptiness and bitterness. And then one day, I met her. A chance encounter in a country thousands of miles away from my own, A random coincidence, And it saved my life. On our first date, the first thing I ever told her was not to expect anything more than casual hookups until I’d leave and never see her again. A few days later I realized she was unlike anyone I had ever met before. A few weeks later she became my girlfriend and moved into my parents house halfway across the world. A year later she became my fiancée. A year later she became my wife. And in a few months, we’ll have a family of our own. Now, I know what you’re thinking. If this post is so positive, why did it start off with such a negative undercurrent? Because changes didn’t happen overnight. I remember being so self-centered and narcissistic in the beginning of our relationship that I wouldn’t even want to give her an hour a day. There were times where she’d ask me after a 12 hour stream if we could go for a half hour walk to spend time together. Instead, I’d go to bed half an hour earlier so I could be up earlier to get a longer workday on the morrow. The obsession with becoming the best material version I could possibly be was so ingrained that I genuinely believed that it wasn’t coexistence and connection that would strengthen our relationship; It was me becoming better at my game. Becoming better at my job. Becoming better in the gym. And every time we would have conflict, every time there’d be an issue; Rather than investing my time into working on myself to prevent issues, I invested my wealth into buying peace because it was easier. Rather than receiving communication and understanding, she’d receive flowers and gifts. I tried used money to try and fix the one thing it couldn’t. Myself. It took years of being with the most patient, understanding woman I’ve met in my life along with months of therapy for me to get to a point nowadays where I can honestly say I’m not the man I used to be, nor am I the man I want to be, but I’m a man who’s aware of his issues and is making progress towards bettering them. And that matters infinitely more than any material wealth I could ever amass. As ironic as it is, though I’ve always been the career-oriented one my wife’s always believed in me and my potential more than even I have. For years I watched my career decay in front of my eyes knowing that my lack of drive was the only reason behind it, but not knowing how to change my mindset. It got to a point where, as a lot of you might know, I considered quitting streaming and League of Legends content creation as a whole a few months back. As a lot of you might not know, the only reason why I didn’t was because my wife convinced me not to. Fast forward to a week later, and Jynxzi asked me to be his coach. Fast forward to today, and I’ve spent the last 10 days on my last vacation with my wife before our daughter arrives. Now, a lot of you might be wondering what prompted this post. Over the last few days I’ve been sent clips of many different friends, colleagues, and acquaintances nominating me as League Streamer of the Year. And it just made me realize that sometimes, you can have it all. I won’t lie and say it’s easy, it’s not. You’re going to cry, you’re going to question everything, and you’re going to breakdown. You’re going to spend years trying everything you can think of, failing, and still getting up and trying again. But one day, if you persevere hard enough, you’re going to look back and realize it was all worth it. Every failed stream idea, Every therapy session, Every hard conversation, Every self-doubt, Every single thing. It was all worth it. I’m heading home now, and the only thing I can think about is how I’m more motivated than ever before. Not just to be the best League of Legends content creator I can be, But to be the best husband and best future father on top of it. For all your recent support over the last few months, you all have my sincere gratitude. As a thanks, the next few months will be spent pushing boundaries in the League space that have never been pushed before. I won’t spoil much, all I’ll say is rather than slow down things are only going to ramp up. And then in January instead of giving to my career and community, I’m going to be giving to my wife and daughter. If you made it this far, thank you. It fills me with such an indescribable feeling that I can share personal stories and have them resonate with people across the world, so thank you for giving me the opportunity to do so. 🤍
