In the middle of 2023, I hit a wall. I felt like I had hit the limit of my skill level around the rank of ~30k, with nowhere left to go but down. For a year I stagnated and felt like I couldn't improve any skillset no matter what I did. I picked the game back up near the end of 2024 when I was finally able to get a pc and set a 300pp play for the first time in over a year. I found my motivation to play the game again, and could focus on farming for a bit before turning to other skillsets that I liked (alt and tech). 5usc25 was my re-introduction to the tournament scene (after playing in osu! Collegiate League). My teammates were great and led us to a quarterfinals finish overall, which I am happy about now. My time on osu after 5usc was spent grinding various skillsets in order to become an "all-rounder". I then found out about 5wc scrims, which introduced me to so many cool people, who inspired me even if I did not directly interact with them.

Atara - mostly all rounder so awesome, carried me in scrims and SHS quals
avtori - mostly all rounder so awesome. I knew almost nothing about her during scrims but 5wc quals results came out and she was the top performer holy moly
sil boy - so good at nm2
VonaAteSandwich - we will go on an improvement arc and qualify for DCS3.
BlessKM - giving me a lot of motivation to keep playing
Rthr - skillcap pusher
Reymexia - tapping goat
AWhitePhoenix - so many cool hr scores that I want to replicate one day
MouseSupremacy - tapping player turned hr and dt pro

My 5usc25 teammates - an awesome team and got me into tournaments
the usa 5wc team members 2025 - I watched the vods of the matches so many times. There were so many doubters this year, but they seeded first and stayed in winner's bracket all the way to the grand finals. Every single member left a lasting impression on me in some way.
the usa 5wc team members 2026 - that's my goal for next year.
everyone in usav3 - thank you for giving me motivation and inspiration
