Damage

Damage, known in everyday life as Yan Sales, is a 29-year-old Brazilian support player who currently competes for Ei Nerd Esports in the Circuito Desafiante, the tier-two Brazilian League of Legends competition. A seasoned presence in his country’s scene, Damage brings the kind of veteran perspective that the support role prizes above almost any other attribute.

The Backbone of the Team

Support is the position most concerned with enabling others, and it rewards game sense, communication, and selflessness over raw farm or flashy solo plays. A great support orchestrates the flow of vision around the map, protects carries during fights, and often serves as a de facto shot-caller who reads the enemy’s intentions before they materialize. At 29, Damage sits comfortably in the veteran tier of professional players, an age at which experience and macro understanding frequently outweigh the mechanical peaks of younger competitors. That maturity is a natural fit for a role that hinges on judgment, timing, and the ability to steady a roster in tense moments.

Signature Champions

Damage’s champion pool underscores his identity as a proactive, playmaking support. Thresh is the archetypal engage-and-utility champion, offering game-changing hooks, lantern saves, and the flexibility to swing between aggression and protection. Alistar complements that style with unrelenting front-line engage, chaining knockups to lock down priority targets and open fights in his team’s favor. Morgana rounds out the trio as a defensive specialist, her Black Shield neutralizing crowd control while her binding threatens to catch opponents out of position. Together, these picks reveal a support comfortable both starting fights and safeguarding his carries, a versatility that lets him adapt to whatever a given series demands.

Grinding in the Circuito Desafiante

The Circuito Desafiante functions as Brazil’s gateway competition, the proving ground through which teams and players aim to ascend toward the country’s premier league. Competing here means navigating a fiercely contested field where promotion is the ultimate prize. For a veteran like Damage, the role is twofold: performing at a high level himself while helping to anchor and guide his Ei Nerd Esports teammates.

As an active competitor with years of accumulated know-how, Damage’s outlook is tied to his ability to translate experience into results. His deep champion pool and playmaking instincts make him a valuable fixture in the Brazilian support landscape, and a player capable of shaping the direction of his team’s campaigns for as long as he chooses to compete.
