COST 2022 is over. Completed our first mini major. Cannot believe my team pulled this off. I’m absolutely exhausted but so thankful and happy. Thanks to everyone who has supported me from the beginning. I’m just a kid who gets to mess around with video games for a living.

I’ll prob make an official statement regarding tournaments scheduling over one another after

Still so much work to do. Game Arena is gonna be packed 😤
We did it.
COST 2024 is officially a NATIONAL!!! Thank you so much to everyone who helped make this possible. I can't appreciate y'all enough. The first draft of seeding will be out within the next 24 hours.
Thank you.

My wife is the most humble person I know and never shows off so I’m gonna gas her up for a second.
She spent all of Sunday crafting these little masterpieces, s’mores cupcakes made 100% from scratch! They taste as good as they look. 🤤
Proud of her skilled baking!
