  • Welcome back to Common Ground, where top players from VCT Americas catch up at local Los Angeles spots that reflect the melting pot that is our league and our city.
    In this episode, Doug sits down with a pair of world champion duelists, Jawgemo and Aspas, to learn about their journeys from the floors of their family shops to the top of VCT.

      @@sevendoubleodex Not in real life, yeah. But I follow him since the controversy about cheating, when MCH (The Big Tiger) tried to help him. Aspas only started streaming because of his advices. They had a long conversations on stream about him and Michel said "If you wanna prove you're not a cheater, tomorrow you're gonna have your Toddynho and will start a stream with a really chatchy title". So he did that and he got more tha 1k on the first stream. People almost thought he was a cheater because of a bug on the BLAST Phantom. From there, he was called to Slick, a team made by Hastad. He won his first brazilian championship with Slick. LOUD started their roster with Sacy and Saadhak. Aspas had to prove to Sacy that he was not a cheater playing in front of him, with Sacy's equip. They started playing in a fake called "Pancada e Amigos". They won EVERYTHING they could play. From there, you know the rest: they got Champions 2022 and VCT Americas 2023.
      In all these moments, Aspas always avoided to show his face on stream, used the camera a few times and mostly on his mouse (to prove his innocence). He was really monosyllabical during interviews. One day, giving an interview to Evelynn Mackus, about his bad performance with Neon on Fracture against NIP at the finals of VCB, he started showing that he was more comfortable with speaking in public. From there, he started showing that he's a really funny and lovable guy.
      So... I know him pretty well ;)

    Idk who on production could see this but I can’t stop watching this vid. It made me watch the old common ground content pieces, and I just keep coming back to this one. The creative risks taken with this one 1000% payed off and the vibe is amazing. The camera work, sound mixing, song choice, getting those extra talent personality showing broll shots, and even the deeper common ground link with their childhoods. This shit is sick, please keep making more dope shit like this 🙏🙏🙏

    great content. Need more of these types of content (similar to Valve's CSGO Player profile) as it tells us the human side of the players, so people will can somehow relate/understand the players better. When people know the players background (not just the competetive side), people will have more to cheer/support the players. Again great content and looking forward to more.
