The world of Valorant in NA is going through turmoil because of a series of upsetting losses. The top-rated organization of this region suffered losses to the lesser-known teams. This sent a wave of trepidation among the community, as top names like TSM, NRG, and even Sentinels failed to qualify.
Among these organizations, a key player for Team SoloMid, hazed, has hinted at early retirement. It seems like losing a key series to immortals in VCT Masters: Stage 2 had a severe impact on him.

One year since i got a new chance to prove myself again. I always left CSGO regretting how little effort i put forth once i made it. I became so complacent.
When my time to leave competition comes again, i can at least leave knowing i put forth everything this time.
Lets go.

This tweet alone serves as an unpleasant reminder for TSM fans that not everything can last forever. James “hazed” Cobb has enjoyed a rather long competitive career across multiple esports. However, it does not seem like the 31-year-old professional Valorant player will resign from his active roster just yet.
He is indeed closing in at the stage, where most players walk away from the sport. For now, fans can at least be at peace at the moment as the current TSM roster is going to remain intact.

The community still believes in the prowess of this veteran of FPS titles. In due time, things will certainly come around, and hazed merely has to believe in his skill set.
Not only do I think you are good I believe you can become even better. Your aim is on point. So crispy.

One tough loss can certainly compel professional players to contemplate their career move. Most players either look for another team to the player, while some decide to walkway from the game.
You and Cutler are the backbone of the team. They can always fall back on you guys because of your experience and game knowledge. Cannot wait to see the team come back full force

TSM has indeed suffered a major setback in the open qualifiers. Comeback from this point won’t be so easy, and TSM members definitely know that very well. It would be great to see this team of veteran players lifting the biggest prize in all of Valorant, before hazed calls it a day.
