Nathan Schmitt, in a statement on his own Twitter account, stated that he will start over his new journey. While many fans expected the player to continue his CS:GO career with another club, the French in the video bid their goodbyes to the game. Following this farewell, the player will continue his career in VALORANT, a game created by Riot Games that has gained a lot of traction.
“I’ve experienced everything from tiny LANs to Major championships, developed my talents, and sat atop the globe. I’ve had my fair share of failures and successes in tournaments. Counter-Strike: Global Offensive has given me everything, and I have dedicated my life to it. However, memories are created to remain in the past. It’s time for a change, and I’ve arrived to dominate [in VALORANT]”, according to NBK- in a video, he shared on Twitter.

Since there are a lot of questions surrounding my move I’ll make a YouTube explanation video that will come in the next days – what are some questions you’d like to be answered ?
