Christopher \u2018Parasite\u2019 Duarte vented his frustrations after being eliminated from contention in the Pro League Qualifier. \u201cWork harder than the entire community just to be let down. I really thought this was it. This was the year,\u201d said Parasite. Same shit every year. Work harder than the entire community just to be let down. I really thought this was it. This was the year. \u2014 Christopher Duarte (@Parasite) January 19, 2019 He then questioned if competing was still an option, saying, \u201cI\u2019m not interested in competition in the Amateur circuit so I\u2019m going to evaluate my options as a competitor.\u201d Parasite won the Black Ops 2 World Championship and was a top player in the game for years, but his career started to fade in Infinite Warfare.

I\u2019m not interested in competition in the Amateur circuit so I\u2019m going to evaluate my options as a competitor. The constant heart breaks are not worth it. \u2014 Christopher Duarte (@Parasite) January 20, 2019 After failing once again in Black Ops 4, Parasite may be hanging up his controller in favor of coaching. \u201cIf any pro league teams are looking for a coach\/ analyst feel free to contact me. I\u2019ll be exploring my options outside of competing,\u201d said Parasite. The Pro League will also offer a substitute system this season, allowing teams to expand their rosters, meaning Parasite may have more games to play if a team picks him up. But as of now, Parasite may have played his last competitive Call of Duty match. If any pro league teams are looking for a coach\/ analyst feel free to contact me. I\u2019ll be exploring my options outside of competing \u2014 Christopher Duarte (@Parasite) January 20, 2019 Update \u2013 Jan 20 After tweeting all of this out following his team\u2019s elimination from the PLQ, Parasite has since reconsidered his position and his latest tweet leaves the door open for him possibly returning to competing this season. After having time to think about it I will be pursuing a serious coaching position in the pro league however, if I don\u2019t find an opportunity I deem worth it. I\u2019ll continue competing, prove my worth and continue trying to get in the league during roster change periods. \u2014 Christopher Duarte (@Parasite) January 20, 2019<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Parasite questions competitive future after PLQ loss [UPDATED] One of the all time great Call of Duty players may have played his last event after failing to qualify for the Black Ops 4 Pro League.
