who else is an athlete and a league player?

so i am a UK tennis player, been playing since the age of 7 competitively at a national level. i was training every single day, i would miss outings with friends, birthdays etc, just to train and compete. when i was around the age of 15 one of my friends from training had just been introduced to league by one of his friends from school and needless to say he had become addicted to it, because he wouldn't fucking shut up about it. at the time the only games i was playing were on the xbox, fifa, cod bad company 2 etc, i had yet to be introduced to pc gaming. my friend kept nagging me to download the game and i kept shrugging it off with maybe. during an aegon team tennis match after our singles he suggested that we go back to his and play league before our doubles, so we went back to his, and set up a normal. my first ever game was with garen, at the time he played on very low graphics to increase performance which made me think in the back of my mind that this game was absolute turd. my first impression of the game wasnt great, it wasnt really something that i particular enjoyed, i think it was mainly because i didnt know what was going on and i kept dying to the tower. when we had to go for our doubles match i was glad, playing vs minions for 30 mins and dying to someone every 1 min wasn't enjoyable. However, a few weeks later my gold membership on the xbox ran out and so i decided to download league and play it as a substitute, during that week nocturne was free to play and that moment was the turning point, that champion was actually fun to play and i acctually enjoyed playing the game, after that i played the game more and more until i was playing it every day before and after training; it got to the point where i got absolutely addicted. it no longer became playing because i enjoyed it, it just became habit, it was just second nature for me to instantly open up league as soon as i got home and play for hours, every spare time i had was spent playing league, inbetween practices, before and after, during competition weeks, playing in the hotel room on the free 30 minute internet trial and then spending £5 a night for internet so that i could play. it just got to the point where it completely consumed me, at some point i stopped, stepped back and actually looked back at the last few years, and came to the conclusion that hours spent playing league was probably more than hours spent playing tennis, when i actually think about it that is crazy, because since i was a kid my whole life, my whole time was dedicated to becoming a tennis player and before i realised it league had completely stolen that. from 16 to 19 were the most wtf, void, blank, dark, non existent, whatever period of my life, which for a tennis player is dangerous because 17 to 19 is when you start to break onto the tour and play professionally, its a make or break situation essentially. during this period i kept dodging the problem of this is the time when you work harder than before, this is when it is decided that you will play on the tour or not, however with my addiction to league this problem kept getting dodged, postponed, delayed and now almost forgotten. i am now 19 in my first year of uni, a lot of my friends, and my whole year ( legit like 99% of them) have gone to the States for college tennis (uni) on scholarship, i skipped out of the idea despite being offered a much, much better offer than everyone else .

i think one of the reasons i liked tyler1 so much was because he was also an athlete, even asking how he managed league and training.
