  1. When I was a kid I had a recurring dream.
  2.  
  3. I was onstage.
  4.  
  5. It was pitch black.
  6.  
  7. A crowd of tens of thousands of fans awaited as my team and I listened backstage.
  8.  
  9. Suddenly, the slow thunder of a drum began to ring across the stadium.
  10.  
  11. We walked out to the deafening shrieks of our audience and proceeded to kill the enemy nexus.
  12.  
  13. Fame.
  14.  
  15. Growing up, I’d watch Bjergsen, XQC, and JoshOg and think ‘I want to be that.’
  16.  
  17. I always loved the attention.
  18.  
  19. And when we started VBG, I thought, if we worked really hard, maybe we’d be famous one day.
  20.  
  21. But six months ago, things started to get out of hand.
  22.  
  23. Fortnite came along and gave us the shot we needed.
  24.  
  25. Millions of players.
  26.  
  27. Sweaty noobs to farm.
  28.  
  29. Four months later, we still weren’t enough.
  30.  
  31. And I don’t want to complain.
  32.  
  33. We are skilled players.
  34.  
  35. And I also don’t want to claim that we suck.
  36.  
  37. So many streamers are astronomically shittier.
  38.  
  39. But with this new patch, we’ve had difficulty adjusting.
  40.  
  41. We’re so used to jetpacks.
  42.  
  43. To being able to shopping cart from Retail to Salty.
  44.  
  45. But now we get shit on and only win 1 in 10 games.
  46.  
  47. That’s more than once an hour.
  48.  
  49. And it’s more than most people.
  50.  
  51. But we need to get our shit together.
  52.  
  53. Because we feel guilty.
  54.  
  55. Because when we are broke and struggling, all we dream of is Ninja level of success.
  56.  
  57. We prayed it would all work out better than this.
  58.  
  59. So what do we have to fix?
  60.  
  61. Well it's not that we have no talent.
  62.  
  63. It's just that we're scared.
  64.  
  65. Scared of commitment.
  66.  
  67. Of getting sick of it.
  68.  
  69. Of disappointing ourselves.
  70.  
  71. Or becoming irrelevant.
  72.  
  73. We’re worried we’ll sacrifice our free time to play games..
  74.  
  75. So we have to constantly remind each other to put your best fucking effort in.
  76.  
  77. To take breaks away from Fortnite.
  78.  
  79. Because otherwise the rage, frustration and laziness will keep us down.
  80.  
  81. The money, the opportunities, the attention.
  82.  
  83. Screaming ‘now or never!’
  84.  
  85. Are fading faster than we can catch up.
  86.  
  87. The reality is, we didn't come all this way to not fulfill childhood fantasies of being a pro gamer.
  88.  
  89. To be adored by millions of people.
  90.  
  91. To find success in the unlikeliest places.
  92.  
  93. To fulfill our potential through online PvP.
  94.  
  95. And hopefully, along the way, shit on TSM.
  96.  
  97. I hope we never forget that.
  98.  
  99. Love,
  100.  
  101. VB Fearion
