Hey there, Welcome to my "professional" webpage! This is the page where you can find out much more about me as a CS:GO player & my semi-professional history & achievements!
Me & Counter Strike
I started my long & steady relationship with this game when I was just 9 years old, with the previous-generation gem, CS:1.6. In my own words, I fell in love with this franchise right from the beginning & decided to dedicate a good amount of time to the game. When I turned 13, my friends & I heard about the new version of CS being launched later that year (CS:GO) & I moved over from 1.6 to GO.
Me as a professional CS:GO player
As with any other devoted CS:GO player, I have spent a few years on this game & accumulated several thousand hours of gameplay. I became a semi-pro player around the middle of 2016, when an online-friend invited me to join his fully-local, skilled team of friends. While I had previously expected myself to be fully capable of playing on par with professional players, I soon found out that my teamwork & attitude was insufficient for my team to defeat any of the decent professional opponents we faced. Since then, I have attempted to improve my efficiency in communication & have also switched up playing style to better suit the needs & strategies of my team. As such, I have experienced improvement, though I am currently inactive from the scene.

My few achievements so far
Due to my relatively short professional lifespan, there are only a few local achievements I have garnered so far, and here they are :
•CS:GO Keyboard Warrior League 2010-2016 - 1st runner-up
•CS:GO Kaki Bukit Community Center - 1st
•Little India U-16y/o - 2nd runner-up
•ESL Asia Qualifier - Ranked #369
My style of play
Initially when I started out as a fresh semi-professional player, my playing style was very aim-based - I often took aim duels recklessly without expanding utility or calling for backup, much to the frustration of my former-teamates. As I worked more & more with my former team, I adopted a more cautious approach to the game, even on the T-sides (my favoured side) & I soon learnt to be efficient in coordinating my utility-usage with my team's strategies.
My favoured maps
•de_inferno•
Inferno is one of my classic favourites, providing an especially good opportunity for players and teams to improve utility expansion & play for the time in the round. This map also allows for extremely aggressive CT-strats, which I love. Overall, this map is aesthetically-pleasing & allows for the improvement of CT-sides, if played correctly.
•de_cbble•
Cobblestone is one of my favourites because of its unusual orientation & size - the map is notoriously T-sided, on top of being one of the largest maps in the game. However, with good teamwork & decent aim, both the T-side & CT-side of Cobblestone can be fun to play because of the range of the map, the many different zones, rotation sequences & elaborate executions/strategies the map has to offer.
