CSGO: From a Player to an Analyst

After leaving his playing days behind, Jacob “Pimp” Winneche spent his time as an analyst for various events. However, he confesses that he misses the art of content creation and would like to dedicate more of his time to his stream. The member of Team Liquid, who has been streaming on and off for a few years now, decided to go all-in owing to the amount of support he has seen from the community.

“The support has been massive and therefore, I’ve decided to go full time on creating content for the CS:GO community,” Pimp said. “That does not mean I won’t be working as an analyst anymore, that just means that I’ll work both and dedicate even more time to CS:GO.”
