CS2: 21-year-old m0NESY doesn't mind sharing his experience with young people, frankly stating that his dream is to save lives.

Veterans who have been in the industry for many years, facing the rise of new stars, lack a sense of security and are afraid of losing their jobs. They may start to act arrogantly and use words to ridicule others, even if the other person is an idol they have admired for many years. They inspire and empower others to pursue their e-sports or sports dreams, only to find out how cruel reality is after they have become a part of the industry. They are constantly suppressed and treated with an arrogant attitude, which teaches them a lesson and tells them to keep honing their skills. Without a single word of encouragement, they must feel terrible inside.

Focus on atmosphere to reduce the pressure of being the center of attention.

Some of the more modest veterans, however, were very happy and proud to witness their development potential, rising from unknown minors to world-class players breaking records. The influx of fresh blood symbolizes fierce competition, which is essential for progress. Recently, Falcons sniper m0NESY talked about the future in his livestream. As he gets older, he was filled with emotion. He expressed his willingness to share his opinions and experiences with the new generation of players and mentioned his dream of becoming a coach.

He said that there's no pressure in the stadium; you just need to be fully focused, enjoy the atmosphere, and turn the fans' cheers into motivation, which will lead to better performance. The harsh reality is that things don't always go as planned; the audience might be cheering for the opponent, so you have to learn to adjust your mindset and trigger your immune system.

Consider retiring or becoming a coach after age 30.

The conversation then gradually shifted to humorous topics. When asked if he needed braces, m0NESY, with his excellent sense of humor, replied that he would start arranging them because one of his lower teeth was growing crooked, disrupting his tooth alignment. This honest, old-fashioned comment comes from someone who is only 21 years old. He previously played for NAVI Junior, G2, and Falcons, starting his professional career in 2021. His talent scouting was unstoppable; his performance in 2023 was phenomenal, winning both IEM Katowice 2023 and IEM Cologne 2023. In 2026, he won IEM Cologne 2026, bringing his prize pool to over $1.1 million.

With a promising future ahead of him, he's currently not burdened by heavy psychological pressure and maintains a stable mindset. He stated that he will continue competing until he's 30, at which point he'll either transition into coaching or retire. Finally, he was asked an interesting question by netizens: if he hadn't become a professional gamer, what kind of job would he be doing now? He frankly admitted that his childhood dream was to be a doctor, saving lives. His conversation in the live stream revealed his personality and character—humble and cautious—which undeniably endears him to many fans.
