For that unaware, ohnePixel embarked on the separate endeavor of forming his own team with the objective of reaching the Shanghai Major. To his surprise, the team made a whole lot of progress in just a short span of time. Specifically, the team started in the Levant and North African open qualifiers, advancing into the Middle East closed qualifier, which they won through the lower bracket. With that in mind, ohnePixel had disappeared off the internet with the Asian RMR coming up.
What did ohnePixel say?
The German streamer took to X (formerly Twitter) to apologize to his fans and be transparent about what’s happening behind the scenes.
“Bulls**t aside. From the monthly 7-day break to now having not streamed in over 30 days Inside I feel like a d**k making this post, because I get to do what so many people in this world consider their dream and they are probably thinking “stop crying b***h”. And they are partly right because I do feel like my tank is smaller than others and that I need more breaks,” he started.
“But wanting to stream every day, skinbid, DRILLAS, private stuff, and China coming up while my passport surprisingly had expired (a.k.a no visa) made me lose it. I am disappointed in myself for behaving this way when I lose control to just “leave everything”. When a simple head’s up “gonna be gone for a bit” would probably work wonders,” he explained what’s been stressing him out lately.
“Problem is, I always told myself “just 1 more day, tomorrow we’re back” While more and more stuff piled up, business relations became more dissatisfied and a community that I built up for 5 years became more and more disappointed. Stress and fear keep stacking and all the sudden we’re at day 40,” he explained how he kept putting off his problems instead of facing them head-on.
“I am doing this post mostly for myself, to get my feelings off my chest and because i feel like i owe you guys an explanation. One thing I want to make clear, I still f**king love streaming as if it was day 1 and I am grateful that you guys allow me to do that. This break wasn’t me trying to get away from streaming, it was me trying to get away from all the other stuff that seemed unmanageable,” he reassured his fans with full transparency.
“I am working on the shit that I piled up right now, so I will be back soon. I feel cringe deluxe opening up like this, but hey fuck it, I will try to make sure it’s the last time. Love to everyone who understands, and everyone who reached out. And ofc I will be in China,” he signed off with a powerful message.
