In the same documentary he talks about his new stage on the live platform: " I broadcast my game on Twitch because I like to leave something after my life, for the next generation ".
Although he is retired from competitive CS:GO, his passion for Valve's shooter and for video games goes much further , and he hopes to continue enjoying this much longer.
