Sjokz declared, that due to her lifestyle so far, she needs to take break and spend time on herself and with her loved ones. Unfortunately, as written in her statement, it's not the first time that Sjokz experienced burnout syndromes.

I have been working at breakneck speed for a very long time now, but in the aftermath of the tragedies in my family, I tried to get lost in work, and that's proven to be unsustainable. I feel it's necessary to take a break to spend time on myself and with my loved ones. I've experienced a burnout in the past, and I am recognizing the similar warning signs my body is sending me.

But there is hope for the several Sjokz fans all around the world. As written in her statement, Sjokz will try to be back in the second half of the year. She's already looking forward to host Counterstrike tournaments again and wants to be part of the LEC season finals in Montpellier.
