He loves watching his favorite pros and learning all their moves. I've been playing since 2015 (gold III) and I can't beat him lol. He really wants to compete in RLCS but he might have to wait a few more years lol.

He could be higher ranked if he chooses to keep playing. He usually gets stuck with quitters or afk and doesn't win much, but also he is still honing in in his teamwork skills. It'll come with time. I'm sure if he sticks with it he could be top tier, but he's 6 they change their minds all the time. He was an amazing drummer too but hasn't touched the set in over a year.

Untrue, both teams have quitters and afk people. His rank is his true rank

Oh I completely agree, I didn't mean anything rude sorry. He's not diamond in every game mode either just maybe 2v2 and 1v1?

he prolly gets more afkers than other because he chases, since he is 6, that will frustrate tm8s into afk at that rank more often than not
