Leisure:Video Games
There's a unique challenge in becoming a top player, and even more so when it happens overnight. After a string of 2nd places in 2022, including Genesis 8, Jake "Jmook" DiRado established himself as a serious tournament threat heading into this year. Representing his newly acquired sponsorship with Flyquest, he defied expectations by winning Genesis 9. Thank god he did, cause he chose that tournament over my bachelor party. At least it gave us something interesting to watch.
Winner of Genesis 9 & Collision 2023, Ranked 6th in 2022, and the champion of Upstate New York, Jmook returns to TWP after 4 years. Jake speaks to his upcoming move to California, the challenges of being a professional melee player, his plans to level up content and how he still considers "playing the homies" as fundamental to his improvement strategy.
