Was it the right thing to do?

Hahahahhahaha that was a epic rage video lmao
---

at least he owned up to it, i guess?
---

holy fuck that video XFD
---

At first i thought he meant to say nagger, since they were nagging him. but then he screwed him self with the last 3 or 4 sentences. Come on man, don't be 16, act like a 40 year old when playing an e-sport
---

Tagging this for later Monicas'
---

I lost count after the 20th n-word, anyone figure out how many he got off in that tirade?

Also, pretty sure that guy is like 10 years old if his first inclination is to just spam the n-word for 45 seconds.
---

these kids and their insane career suicides, lol
---

why was that even his response to anything?

and what else would he have expected to happen when the words left his mouth other than him being dropped by his sponsor?

Because he's a child and rages at a goddamm video game.

I'm sure he wasn't thinking when he said that.

I'm also sure he probably didn't expect someone in the game to capture and record it.

Isn't all that obvious?

So what you're saying is that the person normally spouts off such racist language that they have to constantly control it at all times? I mean, when I'm "not thinking" I don't go all racist. There are just so many curse words that would roll out before finding a racial one.

why wouldn't an esports person expect someone to be recording?

and most people who rage at video games don't just start saying the n-word rapid fire

That was quite the outburst

Zero tolerance is always a bs rule

No one is watching a pro player? What kind of Crack are you smoking? That shit wasn't acceptable for a random to do let alone someone who is probably streaming to a couple thousand people and has a public image.

Go to work and do the same thing. See if you get canned.

That video is weaksauce.
Not even good or funny.

i've raged at exactly one video game

and it was literally the games fault for being a broken piece of shit

fuck battletoads, just fucking fuck that piece of fuck.
---

Meh. He's not eSports material anyway. Not even NaniWa or idra were as childish as he is.

helIy NO.

Holy smokes that was some unnecessary vitriol. There's no job you should keep using that kind of language while working.

I love how he apologizes yet still states he thinks the other guy was cheating.

"Career"

No one wants to watch a bunch of dumb douchy teenagers play CoD. Whoever's putting up these events is never going to see a return on their investments.

Speedrunning is the real e-sports. Those guys are actually naturally talented. They tend to be a lot more likable too. They put work into it as opposed to sitting on their butts playing real video games all day every day.

Lmao, what a child

But the second post led me to believe it was.

Fighting games are the only eSports where I don't want to squash the people with a backhoe.
---

the "HIII!" after is perfect.

also ragers like that are a pain in the ass to play with. what he actually said is pretty irrelevant. he just wanted to shout something over and over again.

Believe me, the FGC has its fair share of asshats (just visit the Shoryuken/Guilty Gear/Blaze Blue forums sometime) but yea, usually the FPS and DOtA guys are really something else.
