Spicyuuu once played Valorant for 30 hours in an attempt to end her losing streak. “I felt so ill the next day. I’ll never do that ever again,” she laughs.
The 20something-year-old describes herself as being “so bad” at the first-person shooter video game, and professes that she could never play at a competitive level. “You have to play on stage – that’s not something I can do. I’m not good at Valorant, but it [still] makes me feel I want to play it more,” she says.
While most of her peers are experiencing first-job woes, Spicyuuu has enviably turned her passion into an occupation. Valorant is the game that supported her rise to fame. She considers herself very fortunate for someone who essentially “just wanted to stay home and play video games”.
The Singapore-based Internet sensation has been streaming since 2021, amassing 379,000 followers and counting on Twitch, with over 1.6 million followers on Instagram liking reels of her self-described “grandpa” antics, and her “stay at home” selfies, which documents her homebody tendacies.
