If this profile happens to be playing above average, or you have curiuosity around a cheating opponent, don't feel bad. Fazil "umbRa" Balkaya is a retired national team captain, as well as an ESL EMS player from 2009-2011. Yes, he is pretty old for the scene, but class is permanent and unfortunately form could be very temporary.

If this profile happens to be playing well below expected, which is the quite likely case, it is quite probable that this is the only game I have played for weeks or even months.... Or simply my tired brain or my reflexes cannot cope with how good I think I am...

Hope you enjoy being a team-mate or I have given some decent struggles to you as an opponent. Otherwise, I apologise.
