There, the player met some known names in the scene like Jo\u00c3\u00a3o &#8216;\u009cSnowzin&#8217;\u009d Vinicius, now in Case Esports, Leonardo &#8216;\u009cn9xtz&#8217;\u009d Santos still in TACO&#8217;\u0099s place in 00Nation and Bruno &#8216;\u009cbrn$&#8217;\u009d de Ara\u00c3\u00bajo, playing in MIBR Academy.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;\u009cI face that project as the beginning of my career. Snowzin called me at the end of 2021 to be part of the team with him. I&#8217;d played with him before that project, and it was very cool to be part of the first steps of his competitive career. I didn&#8217;\u0099t think twice about his invitation. I still have contact with them, it was great to play with them, and I&#8217;\u0099m very happy to know that some of them reached tier one in Brazil.&#8217;\u009d<\/p>\n<div class=\"_44tKOV3EvA2Ivv21VkJmnQ==\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Venomzera on Godsent\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/blix.gg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/ec3ae0c77082fc65.jpeg\"> <span>(Image Credits: GODSENT)<\/span><\/div>\n<h2><strong>RMR &#8216;\u0093 an unexpected almost<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>With other big teams in the game, no one was expecting much from Paquet\u00c3\u00a1. But, surprisingly, they almost made it, an achievement that would be a tribute to Venomzera&#8217;\u0099s brother, who passed away earlier this year and was one of the biggest supporters of the young player.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;\u009cIt was an incredible feeling knowing we went so far being underdogs, no one was expecting us to pass through the next stage. We knew the potential of our team, and we knew that if we played our game, we would be tough to beat. We ended up making some mistakes against Fluxo in the decisive match, but I think we had a beautiful run at the RMR.&#8217;\u009d<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;\u009cI believe that if we had more experience in international tournaments and LANs, the result could be different, but our boot camp in Madrid was very important.&#8217;\u009d<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;\u009cI think a good team needs some boot camps and practicing against the best teams. The level is very high. I believe the path is now different than when it was like FURIA and Team oNe; the teams need to practice outside of the country against the best teams in the world and play the largest possible number of tournaments. In NA could also be good, but it&#8217;\u0099s not comparable with Europe.&#8217;\u009d<\/p>\n<div class=\"_44tKOV3EvA2Ivv21VkJmnQ==\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/blix.gg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/e703b9bc57b826c6.jpeg\"> <span>(Image Credits: Godsent)<\/span><\/div>\n<p>Even young, Venomzera keeps putting good numbers in his performances and assuming a star role in Paquet\u00c3\u00a1.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;\u009cThere&#8217;\u0099s a bit of pressure, yes, it&#8217;\u0099s complicated, but with the help of my friends supporting me, the team psychologist helps us also, and my family helps me a lot in believing in myself and to know that I&#8217;\u0099m good enough to get good performances.
