Mack explains why he is taking a break before MW3 season
With only a few months left before the season begins, Mack shared his plans for the future. In a tweet, Mack described that his mom had been battling with cancer.
“I won’t be competing to start the MW3 season,” said Mack. “The past few months, those close to me have known that my mom has battled with cancer and continues to undergo treatment. I don’t know what’s next, but family is everything to me, and I want to take this time to spend with them.”
Those within the scene shared their support for Mack beneath the Tweet. His former teammate Lamar “Accuracy” Abedi shared that he was there for anything he or his family needed. Other accounts such as The Flank and the official Call of Duty League account also posted in support of Mack.
As Mack stated in his tweet, he does not know when he will return to competitive play. However, he has only spent three years in the Call of Duty League and still has plenty of time to compete again.
