Reflection from the HGC summit

‪I've been at the summit the past days, and what struck me the most so far was hearing and actually realizing how important we are as professionals and public figures in terms of setting standards for the game.



After some personal reflection over how I sometimes behave while playing hero league & streaming I was actually really embarrassed. I am really not the person I sometimes show to players and viewers, and I definitely do not want others watching me to perceive this as okay behavior, and worse, act similarly. Therefore I have at least mentally decided that when I get home I will really try to change my image and so called brand to something more positive. Do not get me wrong, I will still be and act the same way, but I will make sure I handle those especially frustrating moments in a better way‬.



Maybe I will not ever completely fix this, maybe it is a part of who I am, but I can at least actively think on it and behave in a way better suited my position. It all goes back to treating others the way you would want to be treated, and I would actually encourage all "half toxic" people like me, professional or not, to remember this. In the end it would solely be benificial - not only for you, but also for the community and ultimately, the game as a whole.



That's all for now, thanks for reading! ^^
