Where there is a will, there will always be a way, that is how the old adage goes. So long as a person remains determined to achieve their goal, there is nothing that they can’t achieve. And for one young man in Malaysia, despite being born handicapped, he isn’t about to let that stop him from aspiring to become a professional gamer!
With an industry worth billions and countries recognising gaming as a form of competitive sports, more and more youngsters are beginning to turn to the trend of e-sports, with hopes of making it big, including netizen @gutsayhello.
Just recently, he shared his story over social media about how he had always wanted to make a career out of professional gaming, despite being born with only one functioning hand. However, the young man, who goes by the name of Muhammad Danish Danial, describes how his family had never been supportive of his goals.

Playing the smartphone game Mobile Legends, he has racked up quite an impressive score sheet for himself, especially when you consider the fact that Danish only plays with one hand!
“Please help me retweet this so that pro players know that Malaysians like myself who are handicapped can still play Mobile Legends, despite having only one hand.”
He even goes so far as to upload a video of his gameplay to show how he goes about playing without much help at all, executing moves in the game effortlessly.
