Just over 24 hours after proclaiming he would be looking for a team while streaming and climbing solo queue, Cody 'Elementz' Sigfusson is contemplating leaving League of Legends.
Considering quitting League all together. Too much stress for no gain is starting to take it's toll.

Fans and supporters opened up, and a serious discussion ensued.
@oElementz how serious are you about this?
— LeagueDutch (@LeagueDutch) January 28, 2014
@LeagueDutch Pretty serious. The League community has been done with me for a while it seems. Lost my fan base and got no team.

Sigfusson went on to cite his disappointment that his streaming efforts have not been more successful.
"Can't break 100 views. No teams are interested in me as a player. It's the reality," he said.
Some replies suggested working on his brand, but Sigfusson retorted that it just doesn't seem to be working.
@iankparks @VManSeven Brand what? Everything I submit to Reddit is downvoted into obvilion. I am not a PL or SivHD and I can't get on a team

@iankparks @VManSeven I've been working on the brand with AoE and streaming the last 5 months. I just think I might be wasting my time now.

Eventually, the conversation sidetracked. Unfortunately, this is sometimes the reality for players, both amateur and professional. The full conversation can be viewed here.
