Soccer Ball:
I put a soccer ball on my name tag because soccer is a very special sport to me. I started playing soccer ever since kindergarten. Therefore I have been playing soccer competitively for nearly 13 years which kind of insane. In those 13 years of playing soccer I have met some wonderful people but I have also seen some dark times, for example when the team is so bad that the coach resigns and now the team has no coach which causes us to lose more games, and I have seen my team disband twice. However bad things weren't the only that happened, good things happened to, for example going on a winning streak and being undefeated for 3 seasons straight, having parties with the team and creating memories, and also winning tournaments. I also really enjoyed playing soccer because it was a type of stress reliever, whenever you are on the field all your worries just disappear and the only thing on your mind is defeating the other team. I love soccer because all you need is a ball to play and that you can play with anybody. Although I am gonna stop playing soccer competitively at the end of the current season, soccer will forever have a special place in my heart.
Apex Logo:
Apex Legends is a game I play on my PS4. It's a 60 player battle royale with every team consisting of 3 players which means there are at minimum 20 teams. Apex Legends is a game that has cross-platform which means that Play Station players can play with PC, Xbox players and vice versa. I love this game because unlike other battle royale games like Fortnite and Warzone, Apex Legends requires more skills than just shooting. In Apex legends you have to be good at everything in order to win. For instance, since you can't build like in Fortnite you have to more wary of the environment and your positioning. In Apex Legends there are 19 legends that players can choose from and each legend has their own passive ability, tactical ability and ultimate ability. However a team cannot have 2 or more of the same legend which causes teams to be more strategic in choosing their legends considering the fact everyone has their own play style and that every legend can be countered by a different legend. I love games like this because it requires you to improve at all aspects in order to be good where as Fortnite you only need to be good at building and Warzone you only have to be good at shooting. Also majority of people I come across in the game are usually chill and mature which makes the gaming experience even more fun and you may potentially create more friendship bonds. I have many fond memories of this game whether it'd be funny moments with friends or randoms, or making an insane play and clutching the game, or even if its just winning a game. Apex Legends is definitely 1 of my top 3 favourite video games of all time.
Rocket League Logo:
Rocket League is a car soccer game. I love this game because it is a very unique game. Car soccer may sound boring but it's one the most popular esports known. I definitely have more hours in Rocket League than any other game I've played because for starters, this is a soccer game and soccer is a sport that I hold dear to me. Secondly, Rocket League is one of those game where the controls and mechanics are easy to learn but very hard to master, it is one of those games that have a high skill ceiling. I like playing Rocket because it's different from shooter games where instead the goal being to survive and kill the other players, the goal is to score more than the opponents. In Rocket League I am ranked Champ 2 with puts me in the top 2.2% of all Rocket League players. Getting to Champ 2 was no easy feat, I had invested a lot of time and emotion to get where I am now but even then I still can't compete with pros because their skills are another level compared to mine. But Rocket League isn't only comprised of sweaty players like me, there are players that play the game casually like my friends which I respect. Playing Rocket League with my friends is a very fun thing to because all we do is play music, hit the ball, and just talk while playing. Especially at the start of quarantine where we couldn't go to each other's house, we would be playing Rocket League nearly every day. Needless to say I put so many hours into the games that it has become a part of me which is why it had to be on my name tag.
Genshin Impact Elements:
Genshin Impact is my 3rd favourite game that I play. It's a Player vs Environment story game where you're a traveller from another world and you explore a world called Teyvat. The traveller's goal is find their brother/sister after he/she was stolen from you by an unknown god. I play this game a lot because it's nice to play a game where you relax, chill, and not sweat on your opponents or get sweated on. It's a nice change of pace from all the try-hards plus everything in the game is fun and interesting. The story and the characters are all interesting because they all have a unique background and wield 1of the 7 elements (pyro, hydro, anemo, electro, dendro, cryo, geo) and the power they wield was given to them by the god of the respective element. At first I didn't like this game much but there more I played the more I started to like this game, I'm slowing racking up many hours in this game and it take first place for the game I put most hours in.
Play Station Logo:
I obviously had to put the Play Station logo on my name tag since after all if I didn't have a Play Station my life would've been so different than what it is now. My first console was the Play Station 2 and the game I played most was Crush Hour and Fifa 07 thus creating my gaming personality. I've stuck with Play Station ever since then. I own a Play Station 2, 3, and 4, and on every console I have made many friends and created many memories. Getting a Play Station changed my life literally, before I was an introvert where I couldn't talk to anyone at all but after being in game chat for long periods of time and having conversations with people that share the same passion for gaming as me I was able to break out of my shell and actually talk to people, but that wasn't the only thing gaming changed about me. I used to be very fragile mentally and would cry often whether it'd be that someone made fun of me, they yelled at me, or even if I got a scratch, but since I played games like Call of Duty where people would insult your skills and yell at you for no reason 24/7, I was slowly getting used to insults where at some point I became immune to insults and that the only person that can hurt me mentally is myself. And since I was able to become stronger mentally I was able to endure physical pain better than before which allowed me to play better in soccer since I was no longer afraid to get hurt. As you can see, owning a Play Station has had a huge domino effect on me which is why Play Station/Gaming is important to me.
"SharpFTW":
"SharpFTW" is the shorter form of my username "SharpKillerFTW". It's like my second identity. I use this username on basically all of my personal social media accounts. I first used this username on my PS3 and I was around 12 - 13 years old so I thought it sounded really cool and clever. "FTW" stands for "For The Win" but some people would joke around and say "F*ck The World" which I found funny so I decided to just always use this username, plus it was easy to remember all my accounts since they all shared the same username
Subaru Logo:
Ever since I got my N, I have enjoyed driving around because it is kind of therapeutic, especially when driving on an empty highway at night. But instead of putting my current car, I decided to put the Subaru logo because my dream car I want in the future is either a Subaru WRX or Subaru BRZ. Although I got my N a couple months ago, I quickly developed a passion for driving and cars in general. In the future my goal is to acquire either the Subaru WRX or BRZ and mod it to the point where it is completely different from before.
