because we were talking about it earlier.

Spoiler: reddit post
Linky wrote:so everyone keeps throwing around support and it means a lot, it really does. after the games last night i went back stage and like sat in a fetal position and cried while my team was doing interviews, took some xanax and passed out. playing on stage was really easy, i've always been able to perform when it mattered in everything i've done, basketball, gymnastics, track etc. i'm really not scared of the competition like my fortune cookie reminded me lol.
anyway, yes playing league is a stressful thing, it's rewarding though. when we won that group huddle was so satisfying, i worked with these guys for like a few months for 10 hours a day. i'm so proud of my teammates and myself for actually living up to what i promised them. especially alex, i promised alex i would carry him no matter what.
in the end though the competition doesn't mean much to me. i don't care to be the best in the world. i love playing with a team and accomplishing stuff and being recognized for it. when i set out initially, i wanted to be the first girl in LCS. that was what motivated me. that dream i had i accomplished and yet it is being challenged in such a heartless way. i really honestly truly hate so many people. if you want my honesty, everyone that tries to take away from what i accomplished, well i will always spite them. i'm always extremely salty when dealing with fans on mediums like twitter and reddit, i met some really cool fans in person at the studio for sure.
i just want it to be known that i accomplished my goal for real, and i accomplished it for me, my teammates, and girls in esports. that's it. no one else. don't fucking put me on some lgbt agenda or some bullshit and bring that up. that's not me, i don't believe in that. i don't want messages acknowledging that part of my life, sorry. that's not for any of you guys. that's why i get so pissy on reddit, everyone thinks that's there for them to comment on. yeah, it is because of a lot of circumstances that forced it out there, but fuck you lol. i'm not angry or upset or anxious anymore, i'm feeling pretty okay. hope i looked decent on stage. i'll be sticking around for one more project in League of Legends. after that i'm gonna peace out. much love to you all.
also just for the record chris is the nicest person in the world, fuck whatever the big 3 team orgs say, i don't think i will every respect them after the bullshit they pulled. please support renegades, everything from the players to the management stand for something that other orgs don't.

Her Thresh, Braum, Morgana, Naut, janna are LCS tier IMO.

And if people are banning her top three out... congrats her team now just gets everything they want?

Normally I think her Morgana is kinda sketchy, but she had one great game on it.

Her Thresh and Braum are pretty good. I think her Ali is OK, too. Her Janna looked good to me, but they lost that lane.

Never seen her Nautilus.

She said that she's looking into options for "whether it would be financially viable for her to play in the LCS".

So maybe there's hope.

Thresh is the champ that all supports get good on, and it's generally more efficient to get good by spamming one champ and then branching out than it is to start by branching out.

She's staying!

I want to be slightly worried about the drama, but I'm happy for the team and I really like the team.

All the "omg she doesn't even count as the first girl in LCS" comments I'm seeing are disgusting. I don't think I can stand seeing those anymore. And she's proven she's not that emotionally stable, so I hope there isn't a major blow up post half way through the split where she says she can't take it anymore and that she hates everyone again and she has to delete her twitter after another meltdown.

Yeah, I don't want to see her have to deal with the reception of a potential breakdown. :/
is this where I tell you to swipe right

People be transphobic really isn't anything new.

Although it's really interesting that a lot of the top pro gamers who are girls are trans. Remilia, Scarlett, etc.

But...she is, isn't she? At least as a player?
