If you know your gaming, the name Michaela 'mimi' Lintrup should be familiar to you. That's because the Danish player, who's currently playing for G2, is among the elite of female VALORANT players. But that's not enough for mimi. Her mission is to become the world's best and she's proven that she has the skills to do so.
Originally a CS:GO player, mimi already won several big titles that testify to a unique talent, including IEM Katowice in 2016 and 2017, as well as Copenhagen Games and ESU Masters 2017. Some VALORANT titles are certainly on the way after her switch of game and team.
In her quest to become number one, not a single day goes by without Michaela putting in the hours to become an even better player. When not practising with her team, she's always online and likes to stream her training on Twitch to her more than 200,000 subscribers, a fact which helped her to the title of Gamer of the Year on Twitch at the 2019 Danish Gamer Awards.
