So if you're a PUBG fan by now you've likely heard the news that the European League (PEL) as we knew it in 2019 is no more. I'm interested to see how PUBG goes from here. Many of the bigger organisations have dropped their rosters. For that many teams to drop out, is kind of concerning. I've recently started following an esports journalist on Twitter, Adam…
For the past few months I've spent some time chatting to friends in the South African Gaming and Esports industry and tossing ideas around. My biggest frustration, personally, was that in my line of work I have the incredible opportunity to come across amazing stories and smaller scenes doing rad stuff, but I'm not always able to share it all on the platforms available to me.…
I've really enjoyed making YouTube videos these past few months. I've been able to work on a style I like and focus a bit more on presentation versus worrying about how the camera works or how I'll edit. Trinoc coming on as production has been a life saver.

I can safely say that at this point in time I have slacked in my actual playing of video games. Does this suck for me? Yes. But is it something I would declare out loud and in public for all to hear?

My name is Sam, though I'm also known as Tech Girl. I'm an esports host and shoutcaster. I work around the world on rad esports competitions. I've worked on PUBG Europe League, Overwatch Contenders and a bunch of fun Nintendo Europe events. I also create content around tech, gaming and esports. Links to all my various platforms are here on the blog. You can find out more in the about section (you'll also find ways to contact me there). I'm a giant nerd and secretly wish I could be one of the X-Men!
