MIRAA has left the building
This could be one of the many news I wrote about player X leaving team Y. It is not. I hereby announce that I am leaving HLTV.org and esports in general.
I have been involved in esports for so long that I do not even know when it started exactly , but it was around 2002. I started playing Counter-Strike, then went on to writing news, making videos, and it all led to this point. Most of you know me from my work with HLTV.org, some of you probably know me for my work with GotFrag.com, but it started long before that.
I wrote several hundred pieces of news, interviewed many players and had the priviledge to cover onsite many tournaments, in three different continents. I met some great people, some not so great people, but I guess that's life. I will certainly take the best of this experience in my future life, and I have to say that it was esports that helped make the person I am today.
Everything in life must come to an end, and I feel the time has come for me to move on. I have almost completed my degree in journalism, and I have started working for Goal.com and Público (Portuguese newspaper). As you can probably imagine, I don't have much time left for esports, nor the motivation to continue in a business which still seems so small.
I'm proud to have been part of this wonderful industry and I leave with the feeling that I did my best to make esports grow. However, there are many, many obstacles in the way, some of them disguised as "dead serious" managers or tournament organizers, but that's a different story.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank Mark "jESUIT" Cheben and Marc "Nix0n" Winther for believing in me and offering me the chance to work for GotFrag and HLTV.org, respectively. I would also like to thank, you, the user, for reading all the stuff that I wrote in the last seven years or so.
Cheers,
Luís "MIRAA" Mira

gl in real life
2011-06-08 18:59:28
come on, esport is real life, you meet poeple who are just interested in games mostly. You guys should be trying to make esport more popular, instead of dividing life for "real" and games... That's why I'm always ashamed in front of my friends who think stereotypes
2011-06-08 19:47:00
totally got a point if you told some1 im a pro gamer they would be like LOL
2011-06-08 20:05:58
i wanna be a progamer, but real life is better than that...believe me..
2011-06-08 20:07:22
Depends on what is the most important for you. Moreover you don't have to give up real life for making cs career. It's like in everything, if you want to be one of the best - you have to spend such a long time practising. But still it's a great experience for those, who won't have contracts in the future.
For example - if some child plays on piano all life, people realize it is his/her passion, and apprecieate this. If you play counter strike even less than this child plays a piano - people say you're addicted, and you're waisting your time.
That's what I mean. People won't change their minds, if we don't try to persuade them. Do you get it now ? :)

+1 i have the same point of view...
people thinks that you r playin computer games and u r addicted but the truth is that u r playin only
C0unter-Strike 1.6 and u regards it as a sport or as paula said playin instrument it is your passion and u do what u want to do so it is no addiction.... (my brother is playin piano since 10 years he spend much time on it and it is realy annoying 4 me to listen it whole day but my parents support him in it, but in the other hand i told them that i wanna be proffesional c-s player so that is the reason why i am playin 10h or more a day and they just said that i am addicted and i should go to a doctor beceause i am sick.... what i mean, i just want to say that people cannot understand your passion and will not accept this kind of sport which is a sport 4 me 4 sure....now all haters can say that i am xyz and will never be a pro, KISS MY ASS !!!!)

Playing piano your whole life also has some asocial affects, just like sitting indoor playing computer games has.
Many of us choose to sacrifice some of those more social activities in favour of getting the best entertainment ever.
You just can't sort it black and white.
Some people really should stop playing computer and take a look on the outside.
Besides that I surely agree that counter-strike has become some kind of scapegoat for all kinds of conscious time waste/entertainment.

You guys should be ashamed of yourselves to have this kind of behaviour. Instead of showing some respect to our friend MIRAA and wishing him the best of luck, you guys stan here and troll yourselves out with pointless internet arguments like the ones you're having.
Show some respect and attention for people who are REALLY worth paying attention. Peace

Maybe it's news because we read how Delpan left fnatic or so, and this is how MIRA left hltv.org team, yo you got the pattern?
2011-06-08 19:18:28
not really, Delpan leaving fnatic is related to the CS scene while miraa leaving hltv.org is related to hltv.org
but I don't mind it being a newspost
but I don't mind it being a newspost
2011-06-08 20:11:08
well HLTV.org is related to the CS scene since they cover it and are the best and biggest at it.
2011-06-08 22:37:32
obviously, but an employee leaving the site isn't relevant to anyone outside of this website, really. that's my point :P
2011-06-08 22:42:49
Considering the time and dedication that he left here, making it newsworthy is the best tribute he can have (since a blog wouldn't have the same impact), it is only fair to have it as news.
GL MIRA, I hope I will, someday, see you covering first page material.

I had the luck of working with MIRAA at myMYM.com and I have to say that he is the best at was he was doing.
Never seen a guy with that motivation and dedication as him. His English was perfect (for a Portuguese)and that resulted in some great and interesting blogs and coverage. When he joined the HLTV.org team, I was excited because I knew that the site would get a huge upgrade, coverage- and newsbased ...
Have fun at your job!

As you can probably imagine, I don't have much time left for esports, nor the motivation to continue in a business which still seems so small.
what a sad thing to say. in other words - esport is dying so why give a shit.
I understand MIRAA won't have time for HLTV anymore but why add such a statement... I guess it's true but has negative meaning for people which still believe in esports and it's evoultion
