Mom wins video game tournament while holding her 5-day-old baby

A new mother gamer is going viral after winning a video game tournament in Florida while holding her newborn just five days after giving birth via Caesarean section.

The gamer mom, who goes by the handle Legi0n, entered a Mortal Kombat XL tournament Saturday hosted by Juicy Game Night in Orlando, Fla.

The now viral Mom Legi0n defeated three other players, including her own husband, while holding newborn Cereza in her arms.

The gamer said Cereza was born Sept. 22 via C-section, after her uterus nearly ruptured.

“I only won because she coached me mid set,” Legi0n joked on social media.

The victory earned the player a $28 prize and a trip to the DreamHack Atlanta gaming festival in late October.
