Need a coach?
At 35, I have come to the realization that I'm just too old to keep up with kids that are 10-17 years younger than me. I just don't have the reaction time, or the actual TIME anymore (Kid, wife, house, job etc) to grind out ranks and aim train and take the game seriously.
With that said - I've been playing Conter-Strike since 2000/2001 from 1.6-CS2. I have years of competitive team experience, was Global Elite in CSGO, Played for an ESEA team than won open and went to Premiere (or whatever the league below invite was in 2012ish). Got to the top 1500 in Valorant and played under contract for a no-name ESports org that went nowhere.
Credentials and sob out of the way - I would like to start coaching.
I will work through these things in a scheduled Discord call - Will not spend hours typing out a coaching session for you, sorry.
There's a lot to cover. At the moment there are 0 clients/students/partners. So for now.
It's free.
All ranks welcome. If you're looking to get out of ELO hell. This is where you can get help.
Please send me a DM. I am US East time zone. IDC where you live, but just be aware for scheduling purposes.
