Shroud reveals biggest reason why he won\u2019t compete in CSGO or Valorant Twitch: shroudTwitch icon Michael \u2018shroud\u2019 Grzesiek has revealed one reason why he\u2019d never return to professional CSGO or join the Valorant esports scene, and it\u2019s pretty hilarious. Before he was a Twitch legend, FPS star shroud made his name in the professional Counter-Strike scene, where his skills ranked him amid the world\u2019s best players. Since retiring from the pro sphere he\u2019s become a pillar within the Valorant community, often comparing his competitive experience playing Riot Games\u2019 flagship FPS to Valve\u2019s \u201cboomer\u201d shooter. Despite fans begging the star to return to the esports world, with many asking him to create his own org, shroud has revealed exactly why headshotting the competition on the big stage just doesn\u2019t appeal to him anymore \u2013 and the reason is entirely relatable. Shroud discusses going pro again in Valorant or CSGO During a watch party for the ongoing Valorant global tournament, Valorant Champions Tour (VCT,) shroud started to discuss his experiences CS on LAN. \u201cIt [Valorant] feels pretty good online, so I don\u2019t quite know how it\u2019ll feel on LAN,\u201d he notes. \u201cCS felt terrible online. But this game, in my opinion, feels a lot better online than CS. I imagine on LAN it will feel good, for sure, but I don\u2019t imagine it being that different, right?\u201d Ending the LAN discussion with an ominous \u201cyou never know. Maybe it is. Maybe I\u2019ll play one day,\u201d this quickly prompts the question \u201care you coming back?\u201d Shutting it down with a solid \u201cno,\u201d he goes on to elaborate why. \u201cUm\u2026 too much work and I\u2019m lazy\u2026 I don\u2019t know. Listen, if I was a pro I couldn\u2019t play New World and that would p**s me off,\u201d he concluded, referring to Amazon\u2019s new MMO title. It\u2019s no secret that the Twitch sensation has been spending a lot of time traversing the corrupted shores of Aeternum, discussing at length how Amazon can go about improving the game. What would happen, though, if there was a New World esports scene in the future? Would we finally witness the return of pro player shroud? We\u2019ll have to cross our fingers and see what the future holds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
