“I cannot hide my age or my incomprehension to leave such a word in my vocabulary. It shouldn’t be part of my vocabulary. As an adult, I should have known better. I had all the information in front of me. that they know best and yet choose to do wrong. I’m sorry about that.”
Cented joined FaZe Clan in March 2021, after playing for Team Liquid. It’s unclear what the player’s next move will be, but they’ll have some serious work to do to regain their trust in the public eye.
