laheem: I first competed in the competitive scene of Apex Legends in 2020 when I took part in the ALGS tournament.
I started gaming when I was 10 years old and the first game I played was Counter Strike 1.6. I also played Point Blank, Counter-Strike Online (CSO) and many other titles.
laheem: Esports in Indonesia began after Eddy Lim, General Chairperson of the Indonesia Esports Association (IeSPA), formed the Game League in 1999.
