Not the First Tattoo in Esports

It should be noted that this is not the first time players have received such attention. In August 2023, a fan got a tattoo of the signature of two-time major champion Gabriel "FalleN" Toledo. Additionally, in November 2022, a well-known streamer Luana "superLua" immortalized a FalleN sticker from the IEM Rio Major 2022 on her body.

Even in-game elements have become part of the cultural code for fans. In July 2024, a user on X with the nickname "burialposter" posted a tattoo depicting a spray from an AK-47 in CS2.

Upcoming Tournaments for exit

The next challenge for exit and his team MIBR will be participating in the ESL Challenger Katowice 2024, which will take place on October 25. After that, the team will head to the Perfect World Shanghai Major 2024 Americas RMR, where they will compete for a spot in the world championship.
