Dexter - In Retrospect [Part 2/2] (CS:GO)
In Retrospect is a long form video series, featuring players, pundits and other industry professionals within the Asia Pacific esports scene discussing their careers and defining moments in depth.
Episode 2 features Dexter, who at the time of recording is a CS:GO player competing for Renegedes, the best domestic Australian roster.
This video is Part 2 of my interview with Dexter, you can find Part 1 here - https://youtu.be/GELFk9wx83E
There were some audio sync issues with Dexter, I am hoping to fix this for In Retrospect #3! Apologies if it is a bit off putting.
