Cuphead DLC, the only thing that matters at E3 in 2019
I'd classify myself as a simple man with simple interests. When I saw Cuphead, an indie title that has sold over 3 million copies thus far across numerous platforms, advertised at E3 in 2017 I knew I had to have it. The art was stunning, the music can only be described as a time capsule that brought me back to the 1930s and the gameplay was addictingly fun. It didn't take long for me to beat it, about 17 hours according to my Steam account, but the lasting impression it has had on me is a high I've been looking to chase since. I had no remote idea that shooting a flopping Onion while I dodged his tears falling on me would be a vivid gaming memory that would ring fresh in my mind almost two years later.

Bakery aims to shatter the mold on what a career in esports looks like
Currently, the Business Development Manager of Dignitas, one of the largest esports organizations in the world, Bakery's day to day roles drastically differ from when he rose to the top of the Heroes of the Storm scene during his playing days. Instead of grinding matches, dissecting replays and mastering his mechanical craft on the keyboard, Bakery's life now consists of overseeing ways to monetize the company via their website, merchandise, and social media platforms. Upon making an abrupt retirement announcement at the end of 2017, Bakery set his sights bigger than just being good at playing a specific game better than almost anyone else in the world.
