Forums - Politics Discussion - Overwatch Pro ends his Career with Racist Rant

What could have possibly went through his mind that convinced him that saying that word for 26 seconds was a good idea? People have the weirdest ways to cool down.

That was just silly.



Dude, just scream "Fuck" or "Shit".

Seriously, they were honed over time through constant use by millions upon millions to be the perfect angry expletives for shouting.

Everyone knows monosyllabic profanity is the most efficient for such things, and it has the added bonus of painting you merely as an asshole, not a racist asshole.



Yeesh, I mean salt and being angry is completely normal in a video game, but if I were in that situation, I'd either scream at the top of my lungs, or just yell "shit" a lot, not the n word of all things...



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

So he just said nigger over and over again? Why? It's meaning is such that's it's use in such a way just seems wrong. Would have been better off shouting fuck or shit over and over again. It would have made more sense, and been less controversial so maybe he'd still have a job...

Oh well, idiots are gonna be idiots I guess.

Yeah, its one thing when 14 year olds scream it over a match. They dont know the implications of that word. But a 28 year old should know better.

That was honestly cringy and forced.



What a complete idiot. Sadly there are heaps more that act just like him on games. Glad his contract waa terminated. Dont need that garbage on Esports.



I wish this would happen more often. It was massively entertaining once I turned down my headphones.

Anyone who has ever played mainstream FPS has run into meat heads like this kid. The amount of white kids using the "N" word these days within those games is staggering. I'd like to take them to Gary, IN or the Chicago's south side, drop them off and see how that whole thing works out for them.

Esports isn't a thing. It's made up. A sport is defined as an "activity involving physical exertion and skill in which an individual or team competes against another or others for entertainment."

Unless you consider pushing buttons in a chair physical exertion... playing video games can't be a sport. It's more a competition than a sport. Esports is just a stupid name some insecure gamer made up to feel better about his or herself.
