A month ago, the Valorant community received a piece of shocking news when Kyedae announced her Acute Myeloid Leukemia diagnosis. Kyedae is one of the most prominent Valorant steamers in the scene at the moment, amassing thousands of views per stream. Thus, it was a shocker for the streamer’s fans when she announced her diagnosis.

The community has been in full support of the 21-year-old ever since. Now, Kyedae decided to shave her head following hair loss due to treatment. She was accompanied by her dear friend Daph, who shaved her own hair to support Kyedae.

Kyedae is one of the most prominent Valorant content creations of NA. Signed with 100 Thieves, we recently saw her participating at the Game Changers Open Qualifiers under DSG. This year sure has been hectic and filled with drama for the 21-year-old.

The cancer diagnosis put her in a tough spot, and there were even internet critics voicing negative remarks against the streamer. But she was unfazed and gave fitting replies to them. But being a public figure and having a medical condition can become quite problematic sometimes.

The reason why Kyedae decided not to stream the shaving of her head was that the streamer did not want to profit from her illness.

“I feel like not everything needs to be shared on social media,” stated Kyedae. The 2022 Valorant Steamer of the Year award winner wants to keep these matters private at the moment. Additionally, in a stream, before she shaved her hair off, Kyedae stated she doesn’t know what mental state will she be in at that moment.

We can all agree with what she stated, especially as mental welfare is a very vital component, especially during trying times.

Kyedae also has been joking around about losing her hair and was even seen having a hilarious conversation with Derke from Fnatic. For those who don’t know, Derke has chosen to have a shaved head, and additionally, he was one of the most dangerous players at the VCT Lock//In. Thus Kyedae was seen talking about how she will get the ‘Buld Buff’ in the coming days.

Fans are pretty appreciative of the way Kyedae is taking all that has happened, and we can hope for a fast recovery for the talented content creator.
