The grandmother of Russian esports player Ilya m0NESY Osipov spoke about the quarrels with her grandson over computer games. She was against such hobbies, but could not convince Ilya to give them up.
grandmother of m0NESYI can't say 100% that he was an ideal child. There were tantrums, there were tears, but I can say a lot of good things about him. Of course, when he started getting into games... I was against it. Oh, I couldn't persuade him, I couldn't convince him that it was harmful to his health. At the same time, I saw his desire.
m0NESY himself said that he is very close to his grandmother – he lived with her in an apartment while his parents could not devote enough time.
m0NESYMy grandmother is a legend. Sometimes she can be strict, but she is right. If we had any disagreements or problems, it was only because of the computer. And I always argued with her, I still argue with her. It's normal.
Despite his grandmother's attempts to dissuade Osipov from his hobbies, by 2026 he became one of the most successful esports players in the country: he was three times included in Forbes' "30 Under 30" list, and his total prize money amounts to nearly 1 million dollars.
