taek didnāt have the best home life. his mother was out of the picture, and his father wasnāt that nice of a guy. he had his older sister, but she was much older than him, and by the time kyungtaek was nine, she had already gone off to university.Ā
he had all the makings of a hooligan or a delinquent. the only thing that kept him from that was video games.Ā
it started with playing at friendsā houses. and he loved it. for three years, he saved all his birthday, christmas, and allowance money so he could buy a playstation, and he got that when he was fourteen. it was an escape. it was everything to him. he didnāt have to think about how much ofĀ dick his dad was, or how much of a failure he was. he could just escape.Ā
taek took the first job he could after he graduated, moving to live in his sisterās spare room-- she still charged rent, but less so, and his meals were paid for. in his spare time, he kept gaming, and in 2017, he met woo and mingi-- who would soon become his best friends. he wasnāt sure why they clicked so well, especially since mingi was basically a kid, but they did. they played well together. they were friends.
and that really was solidified when they transitioned into the competitive apex landscape. kyungtaek began to get a reputation as a ballsy pathfinder that you didnāt want to take fights with. knifepoint became a huge name, especially considering they were unsigned. and it was by no means a career, but the extra income was huge for taek. he really didnāt have that much else going on for him.
signing with millenium at first felt like a blessing. the much bigger salary and the promise of sponsorships mean he could finally move out of his sisterās place and find and apartment of his own. he could support himself. but that quickly soured once he learned he was essentially being replaced-- some little girlĀ was coming in to play with hisĀ squad, while he was told he was going to have to step aside and be an alternate, as well as focus on content creation. whatever the fuck that meant.
itās been months, and taek is still extremely bitter. he knows it isnāt ruiqiās fault, but he kind of hates her. the legends she mains donāt fit with their comp the same way he did, sheās too timid, and she doesnāt even come from a competitive background. it just wasnāt fair!
these days, taek focuses on streaming ranked. heās known as a bit of a hot head who gives honest opinions, for better or worse, though he canāt reallyĀ speak his mind (or leave) because he still loves woo and mingi. he doesntā want to put them in a bad position. plus, he needs a paycheck. sometimes taek gets to play in e-league tournaments with some other friends, but its not the same. and heās still not over it.
