Hey guys, After many years playing CS at a high level, I feel that it is time for me to dedicate myself to another role, bringing all my knowledge to pursue even greater goals. I would like to announce that I am stopping being a player to dedicate myself to the role of coach. This is a decision that I have been thinking about and studying for a while and I feel that I am prepared for this new phase and very excited to continue pursuing my CS story in this way. I am open to teams that are interested in counting on my experience and history within the game, passion and dedication to continue seeking and winning titles! I'm very proud of what I've built over these 10 years, I'm grateful to everyone who has supported and is still rooting for me! My dm is open for contacts! TMJ
