Christina "Gnomesayin" Laird is a retired League of Legends esports personality, previously manager for XDG Gaming.
Biography[]
Christina "Gnomesayin" Laird originates from a wee village in Scotland. She then moved to Virginia in the USA, but now resides in Vulcun's house in California.
Prior to her League of Legends management career, Gnomesayin worked at a used bookstore. In the past, she wanted to become an astronaut, a psychologist, or a dinosaur.
Gnomesayin first tried League of Legends after watching her brother-in-law play the game; she found the game especially entertaining. Her initial association with the professional community was as a moderator for the Epik Gamer IRC channel. When she wanted to increase her involvement, she became a team manager for APictureOfAGoose, which was picked up in February 2012 by mTw.NA. In August, mTw.NA was acquired by Monomaniac Ferus which was, in turn, acquired by Team FeaR. FeaR qualified for NA LCS Season 3 and was acquired by Vulcun. Gnomesayin stuck with the team through all of these changes.
She has appeared on multiple episodes and after-shows of State of the League and Whose League Is It Anyway.
