About myself

My name is Brad Fodor, also known as "ANDROID" in the gaming community.

I have been playing video games since I was around 6 years old, kicking my dad's butt at Unreal Tournament 2004 and Team Fortress Classic, while helping him through challenging levels in Half-Life. As I got older, I grew up immersed in video games, reaching high ranks in League of Legends, becoming a PK god in RuneScape, and eventually competing at a professional level in Counter-Strike: GO and Valorant. I have been a professional gamer for about 7 years, playing for notable teams such as ENVY, Complexity, Andbox, and NRG.

My professional career came to a halt as I struggled with anxiety and depression. I didn’t understand what was wrong with me and, even after talking to therapists, I had no clear idea of how to help myself. This led me to pursue another dream: becoming a psychologist. I wanted not only to help myself but also to assist others who may be suffering in silence.

After my time with NRG, I began pursuing a psychology degree and reading every sports psychology book I could find. I apply these psychological concepts to my own experiences to determine what works and what doesn’t. I am passionate about sharing the secrets to achieving a championship-level mental approach with others who value my insights.

Fast forward to the present—I am now 3 years into my psychology degree and have been studying the effects of Internet Gaming Disorder (IGD) as defined in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. Through this research, it has become clear why I felt the way I did.

Now, I am thriving mentally, much happier, and eager to be the person I wish I had during my gaming career. The internet is relatively new, gaming is a recent phenomenon, and the effects of these developments are not yet widely discussed.

I am dedicated not only to helping you improve your gaming performance (mechanics, communication, game sense, etc.) but also to fostering a healthy mindset toward your goals.
