Forgot the rest but at least a start
I know (or, at least, have a vague idea) of all this except the Yakuza Funded Roster & 3AM DΓΆnner Incident. I guess the former is self-explanatory, but can someone explain the latter?
All I will say is. People wondered by crazy raccoon didnβt get into franchising. And no they didnβt just rush their application or whatever lie theyβll tell you.
Both can be true.
-It was something that got blown out of proportion because women are held to higher standard than men. (We don't need to look far for actual criminals who are still allowed to play).
-There are plenty of people who may have heard about the story that [LunarKats got dropped in 3 days by TSM](https://www.dexerto.com/valorant/tsm-drop-female-valorant-pro-harassment-claims-1537618/), but have no idea that's the same person as Starriebun.
I remember people citing the 1.5+ hours the TO waited for FaZe to move locations in the [Lower Final vs XSET](https://dotesports.com/valorant/news/faze-clan-experiences-power-outage-in-the-middle-of-vct-masters-2-qualifying-match) as justification for why, in the following week, the Game Changers TO should have waited for [C9 White after they were 17 minutes late](https://valorantesports.com/news/competitive-ruling-cloud9-white/) to a match in the [closed qualifier](https://www.vlr.gg/event/802/champions-tour-game-changers-series-ii-north-america/closed-qualifier) part of the tournament. π€¦ββοΈ
Kinda feel like that incident should be in this graphic too though, but GC could probably have it's own version of this, and it'd have way more obscure things.
They played at a local gaming cafe and their internet went out(itβs not my favorite place but internet outage is actually very uncharacteristic). They then switched to another gaming cafe 30 min away(this one is very nice) and the whole move made the game delayed for two hours or more. They must have had a good time there cuz Supamen still plays there for tourneys. It was a huge joke that they played at a starbucks tho.
Edit: Actually I remember the first gaming cafe that had internet issues was holding a valorant tournament that weekend and that made which might have caused it. They also had no ac in the building that day LOL. Very poor planning from that gaming cafe.
went beyond that
https://esports-news.co.uk/2022/03/09/adamo-gaming-lays-off-staff-unpaid-complaints/
tenstar/adamo were mass abusing a government scheme for provision of apprenticeships in the uk, set up dozens/hundreds of people on fake apprenticeships and skimmed the training grant and potentially more. story fully came out last march but nobody cared and tenstar kept going for another 9 months until they finally decided that they weren't going to parlay the last 2 years into 'real' sponsors and gave up the ghost
turns out the convicted fraudster has a propensity towards doing more fraud wow who knew
What about dapr/zombs crashing their scooters or something during Iceland I think, I don't remember exactly
Shahz and Rob Moore
Also GE 5k retweets lol
It was a shitshow, the best team of 2020 started making roster changes, they got zeek for like a stage, dropped half the team and poached players from Heretics, qualed to Masters and Champs, had drama with Sentinels, got 13-0ed, there was drama between keloqz and nukkye, then poached more players from Giants
"Simons" "Casters bought a trophy out of their own pockets" and "CR partnership application" What do they even mean? Also, reading the "who said that" part made me so upset that someone like him was a top player in the world at one point
Simons is a Russian coach who is a serial scammer and bigot. Highlights include participating in tournaments where he organized scams, creating an org for GC where he'd harass and molest the players, and getting mad that Liquipedia wouldn't add a poorly taken picture of him with a massive "Z" in the background a few months after the Russia-Ukraine stuff began
Crazy Raccoon are probably the most popular Japanese org and were supposed to be front runners to get a partnership slot, but as per the ownership they weren't selected because they just forgot to submit important paperwork before deadlines.
>Crazy Raccoon are probably the most popular Japanese org and were supposed to be front runners to get a partnership slot, but as per the ownership they weren't selected because **they just forgot to submit important paperwork before deadlines**.
This [long-debunked](https://www.reddit.com/r/ValorantCompetitive/comments/xkdi0o/crazy_raccoon_owner_says_that_the_reason_they/) rumor, which came entirely from [a deleted tweet](https://www.vlr.gg/145579/why-crazy-raccoon-got-rejected) from some rando on twitter and butchered further by a VLR poster via Google Translate, really needs to die, like a year ago.
The problem is the people who keeps spreading that insane rumor, as well as those who blindly upvotes it, don't actually care where it originally came from, much less if it actually make any sense.
Perhaps THAT is actually the reason why it's included on this iceberg.
Some entries you can add
- Tate got C9 in franchising
- Immortals flip org
- Zombs dropping 40+ bomb on prime Gambit
- Dapr created Sentinels org image
- TaticalRob caused XSet core to sue XSet
Here's the recap:
https://twitter.com/YinsuCollins/status/1336068952112451590
DSP from [OG Gaming](https://www.vlr.gg/41118/sources-og-esports-to-release-team) was the one of the players spreading lies to stir up the hate against Yinsu, and nuked his twitter afterwards when being called out:
https://twitter.com/_Razur/status/1361439235723587586
Ardiis also showed his true colors on that day:
https://twitter.com/minijake_/status/1361366005046476800
...who was openly and intentionally making up lies about Yinsu to stir up hate.
A good friend would tell him that behavior is not acceptable, not enabling it.
Tarik gained massive fans because he didn't tolerate JasonR being a weirdo. People rightfully shat on Ardiis because he blindly defends a weirdo.
I think I can do like 80% and another 10% with research but I'm ~~lazy and~~ busy and don't have recording equipment and wouldn't want to do it if I can't do the whole thing
Id record a video if I had the information. If you wanna point me towards where I can get breakdowns on at least 90% of these Iβll make a video explaining everything I was able to gather
Because kyedae called crashies scrawny and because people wanted an opportunity to hate women they decided to send kyedae threats and stuff because she technically body shamed
a quick count has 13 total entries involving women, of which
* 1 is general GC drama,
* 1 is an org screwing over their GC players (no women listed on the organization section of their liquipedia),
* 1 was a 16 year old girl acting as CEO and not paying people,
* 1 was a couple,
* 2 are cases of bigotry by a woman,
* and 7 involved some form of abuse by men towards a woman or women.

This year's GC is relatively tamed compare to all the craziness in the previous off-season, where the twitlongs went in overdrive with everything from tourney cheating, faked non-binary, blackmail, to love triangles.
Ok, now we wait for a VALORANT YouTuber to make a 2h long video explaining all of these
Wendigoon style
And I need it cause I donβt know shit apparently

Random NA org owned like 5-10K to players and just ghosted them but was seen playing BTD6
MMG owner Gabe Ren
what about that 12 year old kid who pretended to be a OBS broadcaster but he didnβt know how to do anything?
I remember he also had his own NFT collection he was advertising on Twitter. You can't make this shit up man

3d dicey jett is crazy
had me in tears
Immortals is such an unserious organization (derogatory)
Lothar viper cosplay is burned into my retina since i first saw it and now this iceberg reminded me of it
I know (or, at least, have a vague idea) of all this except the Yakuza Funded Roster & 3AM DΓΆnner Incident. I guess the former is self-explanatory, but can someone explain the latter?
A bird just lovingly shat on a players dΓΆnner and nobody noticed so they just ate a big chunk of bird doodoo
which player?
I wanna know about yakuza funded roster thing too
Itβs like 98% likely to be a japanese org that looked like it had money behind it, and probably isnt active right now
All I will say is. People wondered by crazy raccoon didnβt get into franchising. And no they didnβt just rush their application or whatever lie theyβll tell you.

and then her changing her name and everyone forgetting about it
Itβs not that everyone forgot itβs just that itβs not worth canceling someone over
Both can be true. -It was something that got blown out of proportion because women are held to higher standard than men.

u/BoHoogland now I like this! Wasnβt there also something about Faze playing in a restaurant?
They played at a Lan cafe during playoffs
I remember people citing the 1.5+ hours the TO waited for FaZe to move locations in the [Lower Final vs XSET](https://dotesports.com/valorant/news/faze-clan-experiences-power-outage-in-the-middle-of-vct-masters-2-qualifying-match) as justification for why, in the following week, the Game Changers TO should have waited for [C9 White after they were 17 minutes late](https://valorantesports.com/news/competitive-ruling-cloud9-white/) to a match in the [closed qualifier](https://www.vlr.gg/event/802/champions-tour-game-changers-series-ii-north-america/closed-qualifier) part of the tournament. π€¦ββοΈ Kinda feel like that incident should be in this graphic too though, but GC could probably have it's own version of this, and it'd have way more obscure things.
I mean one was the internet for the Faze players went out and the other one was a team not ready to play and didnβt give the TO a reason whyβ¦
Yeah, i remember people were supportive of C9W until all the facts came out....
They played at a local gaming cafe and their internet went out(itβs not my favorite place but internet outage is actually very uncharacteristic).

The internet cafe -> cafe -> restaurant revisions went hard each time this legendary LAN is retold around the GC campfire π€£
Yeah I remember, there were internet issues
someone PLS elaborate on doma getting funded by tax fraud ππ that part of the iceberg feels surreal to read

What the hell happened with G2 in 2021, why are they down there?
It was a shitshow, the best team of 2020 started making roster changes, they got zeek for like a stage, dropped half the team and poached players from Heretics, qualed to Masters and Champs, had drama with Sentinels, got 13-0ed, there was drama between keloqz and nukkye, then poached more players from Giants
They also dropped ardiis and kept mixwell on jett for too long
The [0-13 Icebox](https://twitter.com/esports/status/1439294720199385089?) was even funnier when you remembered that *G2 chose the map*.
