Words can’t describe how proud I am of these guys and what this win means for us and the program.
To everyone that’s been following our journey, thank you.
We are your 2024 College League of Legends National Champions.
The first National championship win in program history.

We provided 734 free Nintendo Switches to schools within the PlayVS community for the Spring season. This effort helped schools save over $260K in hardware costs.
Big thanks to

for also providing over 6K in free game/online codes to these programs.

Yesterday I was told that my director position and the varsity esports program will be eliminated.
After starting the club back in 2016, creating the program in 2020 and winning the national championship in 2024, my journey with SLU is over.

I literally got my JOB through my local grassroots smash scene. To see a MILLION DOLLAR COMPANY come in and STOMP all over local grassroots scenes and the teachers that VOLUNTEER their time to help it grow absolutely disgusts me.

I’m so glad AK addresses the smell problem at smash tournaments. He really explains the cause and effect that bad hygiene has on our potential investors and image as a scene. His plan to solve this smell with deodorant kits is something that I hope more tournaments adopt.

Some things I’m proud of:
Largest club on campus with over 100 club participants. We started with no club at all.
Thousands of people attended my events held on SLU’s campus.
Won the national championship over every top program who started before us and mentored us.

Smash tournaments are too expensive now but to make money/fundraise we need high attendance, but to get high attendance you need to be a major, but if you have high attendance you also need top players to be a major, so you gotta spend money to get people to come make it a major

Ballpark Village was completely open during the event. Spectating the stage was free. The venue was filled to the brim and made the event so lively. We had people stumble in and watched the entire event. Waiters stopped serving to watch too. Definitely doing it again next time.

I’ve had many people approach me on how to start programs but also many people actively avoid me because they don’t want to hear the type of investment that is needed to make a relevant program. So many admins just wanna bank in on the esports wave and it really shows.

Northwood, Maryville, Ole Miss, SLU, Winthrop level of competition should be the norm for varsity programs not an anomaly.
If we want to be the tier 2 system then we have to compete at the level of the tier 2 system.

2nd place is the hardest pill to swallow, but I love my team so much. Wins on ISU, HU, CC, and WU this weekend. Probably one of the hardest brackets we could’ve had and still proved the haters wrong. We’ll win the next one.

Jett brings leadership and program changing confidence to any team he’s on. It’s crazy to me that we got to play a CLOL championship with a player like him. LCS orgs are really just trolling and want to lose I guess.
Another trophy in the collection, beat Maryville in NACL finals with FLYC then CLOL finals with a totally different roster in SLU.
Incredibly proud of my teammates, this win was for them and they deserve the spotlight.
Hopefully with fearless teams will have enough bans for me

It’s like that one episode of VGHS where napalm energy drink pays a bunch of pro players to go to take classes just to beat up a bunch of high schoolers in their national finals
Some of these plans I’m hearing for college teams are literally people just using a university as a vessel to run a pro org
What is the point of signing player mercenaries who play for their different semi pro teams all year, not practice with the school and then shit on college

Racism is running rampant in our country and I want to use my platform to be able to help support those that have their voices oppressed. My tournament series, Smash Out, will be running a video game tournament that will be using its resources to raise money for the NAACP.
We're coming back on July 31st - August 2nd with Smash Out Racism! This online event has Arms, Smash Ultimate, and Melee! We're also adding Valorant and League of Legends to the mix. Sign up to help support the NAACP.

The start of 2021 was rough. Was unsure about what I was doing with SLU, had a break up because I was stuck in STL doing esports, and was mentally in a terrible place.
