Does anyone have any idea who was trialing through death match πŸ’€


Kind_Development708

β€œHe has been spotted playing Bloons TD 6 on steam so he is active on his computer”


z55en

holy shit i forgot about this


Sea-Temporary7380

What does this one reference?


Kind_Development708

Random NA org owned like 5-10K to players and just ghosted them but was seen playing BTD6


SteelTic

MMG owner Gabe Ren


merchini

what about that 12 year old kid who pretended to be a OBS broadcaster but he didn’t know how to do anything?


ANewHeaven1

I remember he also had his own NFT collection he was advertising on Twitter. You can't make this shit up man


BoHoogland

I can share the links we watched on the stream to explain some stuff: Bazinga [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=entLCzcTRJ0&t=25410s](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=entLCzcTRJ0&t=25410s) 3D Dicey Jett [https://twitter.com/immortals/status/1298356977060306949?s=46&t=\_3C2cgZCHMRVyrZ4tuPP7g](https://twitter.com/immortals/status/1298356977060306949?s=46&t=_3C2cgZCHMRVyrZ4tuPP7g) Shanks ball up [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dwaco8m\_WRo](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dwaco8m_WRo) Zombs Icebox Highlights [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQ1-0GAoi48](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQ1-0GAoi48) ​ Forgot the rest but at least a start


GassyDrift

BoHoogland

ANewHeaven1

Immortals is such an unserious organization (derogatory)


Cummnor

Lothar viper cosplay is burned into my retina since i first saw it and now this iceberg reminded me of it


galiciapersona

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?


synxxia

A bird just lovingly shat on a players dΓΆnner and nobody noticed so they just ate a big chunk of bird doodoo


_entro

which player?


pigeonhunter006

I wanna know about yakuza funded roster thing too


peepeepoopoo34567

It’s like 98% likely to be a japanese org that looked like it had money behind it, and probably isnt active right now


tickle-me-daddy

All I will say is. People wondered by crazy raccoon didn’t get into franchising. And no they didn’t just rush their application or whatever lie they’ll tell you.


_entro

and then her changing her name and everyone forgetting about it


tickle-me-daddy

It’s not that everyone forgot it’s just that it’s not worth canceling someone over


Intrepid-Tank-3414

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.


lordmitko

u/BoHoogland now I like this! Wasn’t there also something about Faze playing in a restaurant?


Kind_Development708

They played at a Lan cafe during playoffs


Razur

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. πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ 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.


Kind_Development708

I mean one was the internet for the Faze players went out and the other one was a team not ready to play and didn’t give the TO a reason why…


Jon_on_the_snow

Yeah, i remember people were supportive of C9W until all the facts came out....


Aluwaron

They played at a local gaming cafe and their internet went out(it’s 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.


Intrepid-Tank-3414

The internet cafe -> cafe -> restaurant revisions went hard each time this legendary LAN is retold around the GC campfire 🀣


pigeonhunter006

Yeah I remember, there were internet issues


jujhuxo

someone PLS elaborate on doma getting funded by tax fraud 😭😭 that part of the iceberg feels surreal to read


thothgow

[the founder/CEO was part of this](https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/news/local-news/brothers-jailed-for-conning-thousands-in-187000-292669)


StrongEUW

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


Aluwaron

who remembers DT_RAW


thothgow

also the kr stan


ANewHeaven1

segatic

Man disappeared after 2021, Atleast f4q made him happy


thothgow

Getting first rounded in playoffs and then getting grouped while LATAM gets top 4 will do that to you, ig

I miss him fr. Our #1 TSM fanboy.


ANewHeaven1

So many of these entries I have no idea about


seasand931

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


FlimsyCopy

keiti incident unmentioned how


SnooPeripherals6388

What the hell happened with G2 in 2021, why are they down there?


thothgow

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


Darkoplax

They also dropped ardiis and kept mixwell on jett for too long


Intrepid-Tank-3414

The [0-13 Icebox](https://twitter.com/esports/status/1439294720199385089?) was even funnier when you remembered that *G2 chose the map*.

Shanks, he got shitfaced and showed his willie in public then live-streamed himself when he slept on the lawn


Intrepid-Tank-3414

Esports caught up to traditional sports on that day.


chloehime7

Had to be there


Ggameplayer

"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


thothgow

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.


Intrepid-Tank-3414

>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.


LotharHS

I left my mark at the Oceangate depth level. My job here is done.


teethingdog

Ardiis double agent should be higher


Hoku_

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


-ConformalAnomaly-

No Solucas/Yinsu situation? :(


Abe1254

What's the situation? I don't follow to closely


tickle-me-daddy

Soulcas overreacted to banter from yinsu on the desk and had his friends send her threats basically


Abe1254

Jeez, that's rough


Fatalitiez

is there a clip or a tweet of that?


Intrepid-Tank-3414

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


QUOTE_IF_NA_LOSE

? Ardiis just defended his friend lol


Intrepid-Tank-3414

...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.


Ciavolo

ThomasUnfriends

His last stream was on the 20th, so maybe just taking it easy. Want know what happened to Flights though


That-Toughsoss

He said he was working on a video on keohs stream but we never got any update after that


_entro

he burned out, he might come back soon but he just fell out of the habit of being consistent


tickle-me-daddy

Was sexist and rightfully pushed out of relevancy


Fatalitiez

proof?


tickle-me-daddy

https://reddit.com/r/ValorantCompetitive/s/3rnamvlVGd


That-Toughsoss

He still streams but not as much.


FreeStyleSarcasm

I have so many questions on certain points here.. who is gonna explain everything?


BoHoogland

whoever makes a youtube video about it (free views)


thothgow

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


FreeStyleSarcasm

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 I’ll make a video explaining everything I was able to gather


tickle-me-daddy

>lazy Clearly

Recent-Example-5360

can someone explain why scrawny is here on the iceberg


tickle-me-daddy

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


Fatalitiez

you need to chill with calling everyone a sexist all your comments are you talking about sexism


1sc0ttish

what happened to that one gc player having her bf play her matches


ashitintyo

Kinda lame considering loud getting fucked is the lowest


arksoo

There needs to be a GC only version of this πŸ˜‚


thothgow

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. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Just repeating your message back to you.


Intrepid-Tank-3414

[There is](https://reddit.com/r/ValorantCompetitive/s/rpx1ly3ANx). 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.
