Leaf explains his absence from G2 as he gears up for VCT Champions

He revealed that he’s lived with Crohn’s disease since childhood, but recently suffered one of his worst flare-ups since he was nine due to complications with ankylosing spondylitis and sacroiliitis after VCT Masters Toronto in June. The condition left him with little energy, severe pain, and difficulty eating or drinking.
