Just curious
i mean ange1 had that thing about using snus on stage right? so he probably smoked at one point and maybe still does, cant think of anyone else
nearly every pro vapes/cigs/stimulants only ange1 was dumb enough to get caught on cam. edg are very famous chainsmokers in cn comm
nearly every pro is crazy to say lmao, but yea im sure many do and dont show it publicly, idk about "nearly every"
it is actually like 75%80% youd be surprised lol. like i would source all the evidence from different vlogs/bts/leaks/ppl talking about it for every team if i was jobless enough but youre gonna have to trust me
you think 80% of VCT pros smoke??? genuinely why??? the global % is like 20% among people between the ages of 18-25 why the fuck would it specifically be 4x as likely for someone to smoke if their a signed VCT player, that doesnt make sense lmao
because they are athletes and maximize performance, and stimulants like nicotine help. next youll be surprised when i say pros do adderall too. anyways i am not even guessing its literally well known within val comm. go to the coex studio in korea and walk outuside during half time and look for yourself
if a pro wanted to use nicotine as a stimulant to help with performance why the fuck would they ingest that nicotine through a cigarette and not just through nicotine patches, even outside of esports NO sport has had even CLOSE to an 80% nicotine usage reported, iirc the highest was NFL at something like 1 in 3, premier league at about 20% again, additionally using specifically the studio in korea as an example is insane cause like, korea has a very unique specific relationship with cigarettes that most other countries participating in VCT do not have, so even if the 80% figure WAS true for korean players, that doesnt mean it would hold true for the rest of VCT
dont call me racist but might be the indo guys cuz indo ppl are introduced to smoking at a very young age
most of the chinese players do i think, i remember seeing it on twitter
Stax for sure smokes. I’m pretty sure at least a third of the KR players smoke as well.
