Bio
NPA is my favorite team tournament of the year! The competition is fun and many of the relationships I've built through it have been long-lasting. I am eager to seriously compete again this year and attempt to take another victory. Historically, I've achieved substantial records to help win several team tournaments. I have both historic and recent results at in-person VGC events. I have a thorough understanding of game mechanics and EV optimization techniques. I'm able to dedicate time for match preparation.

I’m a professional drag queen and VGC veteran, having gone to my first tournament in 2011 at just 10 years old! Having played for so long I have a very interesting take on the game, and the creativity I put towards my work in drag definitely comes through in my play and teambuilding!

2024-2025:
- Top16 Gdansk Regional
- Top32 Grand Challenge III
- Currently at 585 CP, 40ish in Europe
Previous:
- VR World Cup 2021 2nd (Team Italy), 8-1 personal score
- Top32 EUIC 2019
- Top8 and Top4 Regional 2016
Bio
In January, it will be 10 years that I play competively, but this is the first season I'm able to "tryhard", because I never had the chance to compete for a full season.
My goal is to qualify to Worlds, and I think that having the chance to play with people from all over the world in the NPA could be a great way to improve.
Furthermore, I think my experience as a player could also help my teammates: I'm not the best player, I'm not the best builder, but I am good enough to help players of any level.

Helped the Stars make playoffs and won my playoff set. Also day 2’d 2 out of the 4 regionals I went to and 1-2 ICs. Have a number of big wins against big name players at all levels so NPA suits me very well.

I’m looking for a strong breakout performance this year and a nice team to take a chance with me! I have experience in NPA and other team leagues. I think top 75 this season is achievable for me and I’ll be chasing an invite for worlds 2025 in Anaheim :)
