    V3nom’s Life in Esports and Gaming
    Oct 28 2021
    Team Brutality founder, Counter-Strike and VALORANT pro Ankit “V3nom” Panth chats to host Frankie Ward about his love for gaming and his journey into esports in the latest episode of Save Your Game. Now known as one of the most iconic esports figures in India, V3nom recalls how his journey into gaming had an unlikely origin - pinball on his dad’s office computer. A love affair with Counter-Strike led him to become a regular at a gaming cafe until he could afford his first computer aged 21, while he also recalls how he struggled to attend his first competitive LAN experience that truly kick-started his career. Unsurprisingly, Counter-Strike nailed the top spot on his list of games, while the iconic football series FIFA earned a spot for helping him keep in touch with his family. VALORANT which V3nom is transitioning to with M42 esports has quickly become an esports giant, and takes the third spot in his saved games.
