Can someone that follows MIBR more tell me why he looks so down or like he just doesn't wanna play? Last we saw him totally happy was in LOUD, which changed after they won champions and wanted to leave after extra season, he then also was apparently unhappy at LEV and wanted to leave, and now at MIBR he looks like he is there because he has to. Is it burnout? was there internal issues? He literally made the team himself with players he supposedly liked. I need someone to help me understand cuz it's just so weird

LOUD = didnt want to play with saadhak because of in-game issues, comps and stuff, also problems with LOUD's infrastructure* (they are still friends)
LEV = nzr drama
MIBR = he didnt made the team himself with the players he like, MIBR was a team made with what was left for him after BLEED got kicked out of VCT. Aspas was ready to play for Leviatan this year if the negotiations didnt work, but LEV were already replacing and benching him so he had to leave.
the mibr players were all recommendations, aspas didnt know any of them, except for nzr that was the only option for IGL left and he was sitting at FURIA's bench. Do you understand it now, sir?
He didnt choose and as far as I know he is definitely not demotivated. Aspas was always serious and "ice cold" since his LOUD days.
My theory is that now that he is in a stretch of losses that we never saw before, his cold personality in-game is now perceived as sadness and demotivation. Look up an old LOUD game where Aspas is in a big win streak, his reactions are the same, he is just focused
he was always like this even in LOUD bro, this is his reaction to getting an ace in LOUD:

outside of the game he is still smiling and joking around, but i dont think you watch brazilian content so you dont see it
I mean, like you said, he is out of form and his contract with MIBR finishes this year. If a team in APAC isn't willing to keep paying him a lot idk why other teams in Americas would. Better to have a lower salary in APAC, a region he wants to be in, than to have a lower salary in Americas or not getting picked up at all if he asks for a lot.
The reality is Aspas is getting older, getting good amount of money and realizing Valorant pro won't last forever, hes enjoying life, he recently travelle to EU, hes casually playing some CS and stuff. Add some team issues and yes, he might look sad on stage but I guarantee you that at the end of the day, when hes not thinking about Valorant, hes having a blast. Give him a fucking break
He was supposed to be “retired” already, at the beginning of the year he was going to bleed just to farm money and live in korea, he knew he wouldn’t be competing for anything. But that whole thing crashed and burned so he had to delay the retirement, but yeah man’s definitely done with valorant already
I think meta is kinda not on his side. hes mainly a jett player and Jett is mid rn. its more of like yoru neon these days in which I don't think aspas is as comfortable on. also internal issues are a big part. Honestly if aspas wants to keep on playing and have a chance for another trophy, he should probably follow sacy's footsteps and move to NA or some other region like apac. I think the SA teams (especially Brazil) have kinda fallen off.
