About Me | ValeK

Let me tell you a little bit of my story so you can know me better and be a part of this journey that I am building. I always liked to play Counter Strike and it was in the Cyber Cafes in 2008 that I tried the game when version 1.6 came out and that gave me that taste to start playing at home in my computer. As the years went by and Counter Strike evolved, I installed Counter Strike Global Offensive on January 2nd, 2016 and have been having fun and evolving with friends. It should be noted and to kill your curiosity that my first rank was silver 4 :)

Then on February 15th, 2019, at the insistence of my friends I did my first livestream, but it was just for fun, and I never assumed that I would reach the stage I am today. What is certain is that I have been a streamer for 3 years now on Twitch and I already have my channel verified. I have about 35,000 followers which I am very proud of and the community I have and continue to build day after day. After reaching max level on faceit on April 8th, 2019, I started playing with some of the big names in Portuguese and international Counter Strike, as well as achieving some achievements.

As time went by I received an offer to officially play for a semi professional team where for 6 months i played on the Golden Gaming team where we also participated in some national and international tournaments throughout the year of 2019.

In 2020 I made streams playing some open qualifiers on Faceit's platform and on January 11th, 2020, in the open qualifier I face nothing less than the old Giants team in the quarterfinals of the Counter Strike Professional League (LPCS), losing the game to a 16-2 on the map de_dust2 in which we only put the pistol attacking in the first half.

I participated in the LAN HOUSE Penafiel on February 29th, 2020, where in the semi final we won after losing the first map and in the second map we were losing by 14-5 attacking in de_nuke we went to overtime and won that game in the de_nuke map. We went to the third decider map and it was the overpass map where we won on overtime the decider. We took to the final a BO3 game where we won by 2-0 in maps.

On November 4th, 2021, I played the qualifier for Omen Retake playing against the professional team called Offset losing the game 16-12. I can say that it was a hard game and made me want to learn more and more.

It should be noted that all these games were always played with teammates. No longer represented by the team previously mentioned.

I started in soccer at the age of 6 where I played for 4 years for Futebol Clube do Porto, where I was coached by Pepijn Lijnders, currently Jürgen Klopp's assistant at FC Liverpool.

At the age of 10 I moved to PaÃ§os de Ferreira until I was 15.

At 17 I played for Futebol Clube do Sobrado, where I achieved some achievements and played the whole season in the senior team only playing 1 game in the whole championship.

At 18 I played in Sport Comércio e Salgueiros for the senior team.

At the age of 19 I managed to play in the Portuguese championship (3rd league) for UniÃ£o Sport Clube Paredes but at the age of 20 I decided to return to the place where I always felt good and continued my journey in Sobrado.

I find myself playing for Sporting Clube Paivense where in the 2021/2022 season I became champion of the series of my division, and I was second in the promotion phase where Sport Clube Beira-Mar was champion and thus went up the division.
Now I am playing for the FC Alpendorada team during the 2022/2023 season.
