Y'all been extremely supportive of me making the move to dota and really helpful and patience with me learning the game. So I went to share why I left league for Dota. It's not because the game is Uber toxic and unbalanced….well that's part of it actually lol but the big reason is this.

This is gonna be a lot to unpack but I need to get this off my chest. Three years ago I got a scholarship to play league for a college called Robert-Morris University in Chicago Illinois (the college is not longer there as it has been taken over by Roosevelt University). I was so excited and hopefully for a potential future in E-Sports that me and my mom moved to Chicago with only the clothes on our backs. Fast forwarding through the troubles getting to Chicago we started living in a hotel in a Hotel called Red Roof Inn in Downers Grove (which has shut down now, I don't know why.) At first I was so excited that I didn't care I had to wake up two hours early to get to campus on time I'm thinking, " This could be my big break! Six years of playing league has lead to this moment!" But after the first week of going to campus and practicing league after classes the issues became apparent, they only care to help Varsity and Junior Varsity. So a lot of us were left in the dust and because of that a lot of people quit, I was thinking to myself , "Maybe a big tournament is coming up that's why they're focusing on them" But I was wrong from the time I was attending the college (one year) I've received zero help and unfortunately lost my scholarship because I couldn't reach the rank to renew it. After that me and my mom were stuck in Illinois for two years. I remember feeling like a failure and that I've wasted everyone's time. Because of that experience everytime I try to play league I have no drive to play it even though I feel like I still enjoy but I can't bring myself to play it because of what happened. This has being effecting over things I wanted to do because I fear the same thing is gonna happen, which made me develop the mentality of "Why does any of this matters if something gonna come along and ruin it" So uhh yeah that's why I left.
