Hector Talks About His Future Regarding New State Mobile and BGMI
Pressure to come back, but a desire to compete.
New State Mobile has witnessed a sudden burst of acceptance within the Indian esports scene with organizations, players, and talents considering a switch over to the trending battle royale title within the country.
This has resulted in some players facing a lot of pressure from their fans and community members, one of them being the professional BGMI (Battlegrounds Mobile India) player, Sohail "Hector" Shaikh, who has currently taken a break from the banned title to compete in New State Mobile.
During a recent livestream, the 20-year-old spoke about his future in both the mobile battle royale titles where he feels crunched between a desire to compete professionally and a call by his fans to come back.
Hector shares his current state of mind with regards to both BGMI and New State Mobile
It is tough being a professional player because your fans start to expect things from you that are borderline unreasonable at times, a prime example being the increased demand for professional BGMI players to continue sticking with the game despite its absence from India.
Responding on a similar topic while interacting with his viewers during a recent livestream session, Hector stated that he has taken a break from BGMI and is competing in a couple of New State Mobile tournaments, after which he might return back.
He went on to provide a bit of an update regarding his New State Mobile team saying "Right now I have prepared a team along with MJ (Harshit Mahajan), AkshaT (Akshat Goel), and SENSEI (Deepak Negi) called The Grind, but nothing is fixed so I am not going to speak about this in detail. In the coming time you will automatically get to know everything about this as I will provide the updates."
