Heartbroken.
My condolences to her family and all her friends.
Lain/Rain was a longtime Burnsider and close friend. Before we were teammates I admired her skill and tenacity. I had the pleasure of playing a season with her in 2020 and she lead the Burnsiders team at DreamHack Atlanta. I wish we could have hung out more at that event but I'm grateful for the time we got together in person. She was very open with the difficulties in her life and this is a tragic end to her story.
Through her passion for esports, art and music she brought light to the world.
It's darker without her, I'll grieve her forever.
I want to thank everyone reading this who offered her help and assistance. Do not blame yourself. I know many of us were rebuked at some point and some of us lashed out at, which speaks to the difficulties confronting her. It's not our fault.
There are so many talented individuals in this community, and esports in general, but there are also people facing severe obstacles in life. Please take care of yourselves. Please help others. Please seek help if you're feeling overwhelmed in life.
"RainofLight / she's gonna snipe"... ...
Rest in peace Queen.
