Overwatch is having an AWFUL week right now

10  2020-06-26 by rrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeee

Overwatch(tm) is Blizzard’s team based shooting game where all the characters are gay and the gameplay is a blend of moba and FPS.

This post will give a look into (mostly) Overwatch esports, the Overwatch league (multi million dollar investment for activision) and the Overwatch path to pro community (tier 2) who are basically the jannies of Overwatch. They do it for free in hopes that they’ll be signed to an Overwatch league team.

Over the past week, a shitload of important people have been #metooed in the Overwatch community. I left out the unimportant ones that you would need to be a 🤢gamer🤢 to have heard of.

Roughly in chronological order:

1. Ryan Morrison AKA video game attorney is called out and accused of predatory behavior and sexual assault by many people.

This one is important because his firm reportedly handles nearly half of the league’s player contracts.

He is promptly placed on unpaid administrative leave

2. Antwnpls, graphic designer of the Florida Mayhem is accused of sexual assault and predatory behavior by multiple people. This one is especially juicy as the accused is a (gasp) male feminist who has taken pleasure in canceling other people in the community for being racist, or any other ist/phobia or whatever.

3. San Francisco Shock social media manager Neil is accused of predatory behavior and (uh oh!) saying the gamer word

https://twitter.com/wazzbagg/status/1276259664985051136?s=20

He is promptly fired

https://twitter.com/SFShock/status/1276278040117428224?s=20

4. Overwatch open division, path to pro admin, and Blizzard employee Blinkyplz has been accused of trading nudes with a 14 year old. They have since deleted all social media channels they had. No response has been given on this one yet, by anyone.

https://twitter.com/Phazahp/status/1276458108433252352?s=20

https://twitter.com/TheSamethyst/status/1276434264192479232?s=20

5. Legendary Lucio streamer DSPStanky accused of sexual assault by his ex

https://twitter.com/starsleeps/status/1275922104584634368?s=20

This one turns out to be fake, as the accused shows up with a Lord of the Rings trilogy length google doc of receipts and evidence to show that his ex photoshopped everything out of context

https://twitter.com/DSPStanky/status/1276198726839578624?s=20

6. Bawlynn (former GM and coach on overwatch league teams) claims to have been assaulted and harassed by OWL pro players, and silenced by people above her. She does not name any names.

https://twitter.com/bawlynn/status/1276566508664225794?s=20

So that’s it for now. Who knew making such a welcoming and inclusive game would bring out so many rapists and pedophiles? Seriously, it’s disgusting. All of this has happened in less than one week.

so many male feminist gamers, who would have guessed? 🤔🤔🤔

we should probably just ban video games to be safe

r/banvideogames inshallah brother

That place has already been taken over by cat eared youknowwhos

Furries or weebs?

Striped socks

Traps

Excuse you, the politically correct phrase is "water-resistant polyurethane-coated textile"

*programming socks

Wow, you're not wrong. Half the comments in the top post there have a struggle session because the link calls gamer rətarded.

That place is the greatest insight into how many goddamn children are on this sight

BLM’s collateral damage, its some real hood shit

Reminds me of that Twitter story about how a big percentage of the gamer gate male feminists have been accused of sexual assault and harassment.

we should probably just ban video games to be safe

You can say that again.

Cant we just ban male feminists

no

Would you ask the sun not to shine?

Imagine wanting to cancel one of the major source of drama.

They've gone from funny to sad

They're always both though.

Rape is already illegal, senpai.

male feminist gamers

If you use the secret decoder ring that translates to "incel douchebag".

Neil is kinda based ngl

Isn't "Video Game Attorney" the guy that was fired by H3H3? If even Ethan Klein is dunking on your lawyer's you should realize how terrible he is.

I do like that the first one calling him out said he's unethical and gaslighty. Like bruh, you know what lawyers do right? Lol

He's the video game attorney that everyone on gaming reddit was sucking his dick for too. I guess reddit forgot, lol.

I thought the point of playing Overwatch is to become familiar with search terms for Rule 34 content. Turns out there's some rapey esport associated with it too

There's always been a huge amount of drama in the professional scene. One of my favorite bits was a Chinese player who went by 'Undead' that did all kinds of shitty things to women, including forcing some girl to get an abortion. People started calling him 'Undad' after that.

People started calling him 'Undad' after that.

That is legitimately hilarious.

He was also on one of the worst teams in the history of competitive anything. The Shanghai Dragons went 0-40 in season 1 (2018). Iirc this is the worst season of any sports or esports ever. He was kicked halfway through the first season when they basically rebuilt the team.

Apparently chînkoids think it is completely legitimate to cheat/hack etc. In videogæmes, and it is ridiculously common over there. Makes sense that they would completely tank in c🤢mpetitive when they can't do that anymore.

Other fun drama OWL player related nickname. A player that went by DreamKazper was booted for grooming an underaged fan. He is now often called TeenGrasper.

inconceivably based

I can't even begin to describe how difficult it is to be a woman in esports.

Laffo, get a real job skanks.

Lol there aren't any. Those are all dudes.

Oh no, someone may call you a whore over voice chat

Undad was one of the highlights of season 1 for sure

I like how one of them texts their girlfriend(themfriend?) with le twitch funny emotes in the middle of serious conversations.

Babe, i'm breaking up with you. it's not you, you were poggers. it's me, i'm omegalul. im sorry if this is pepehands but it has to be done, i've just been feeling pepega and our relationship has been weirdchamp for months, it's time to end it, no kappa.

Step aside F. scott Fitzgerald, we have a new literary god!

Which link?

The only shocking part of this story is that they're assaulting grown women, not little girls.

#AllGamersArePedophiles

Ahkshually they're 5000 years old sooo...

nah they went for for the acshually it's hebephilia and it was totally accepted and okay 3500 years ago in bronze age Europe

yeah there's a mini-wave of metoo going through the entire vidya community. tons of shit with ign, riot, blizzard, etc

soy metrosexual lgbt game is full of crybaby reťards and sex offenders

I for one am shocked.

That Neil guy is kinda based

I left out the unimportant ones

🤔

there were a couple of more random “video editors” and low level coaches that weren’t worth including because they were just canceled for being racist

I was more picking on the idea that any of these '''''people''''' could be considered important.

very understandable

The most shocking thing about this is that people still play overwatch

i knew i'd find an intelligent person in this thread somewhere

I should reinstall and only play deathmatch again.

The character design was reasonably fun it's just the teammates that are tedious and r-slured.

a message our community

community

Its a law firm.........

It's all so tiring. Things were much better back in the day when women weren't pretending to be interested in video games.

Wow, the second dude cancelled a dude's whole "career" after he just signed his life dream contract. Glad he got fucked. What a massive predator too And as always, the easiest thing to predict is that a woke moid is probably a creep

Also, how is it possible for so many "streamers" to...exist? Who the fuck is watching live nerd #927131 or gaymergirl #7133 with 2000 twitter followers? And Why?? It's not like youtube where they get views over months

She does not name any names

did she name names after I collected the links or are you just commenting on the absurdity of it

commenting on it. saying multiple very public people did something, and it's your job to know who they are, but not naming names is bullshit. either spill it or don't say anything.

Nah if you don't name names you can be a victim without anyone being able to prove otherwise.

That's the smart way to lie about getting almost raped for clout without getting destroyed in a defamation lawsuit.

Absolutely deserved. Do you see? Now do you see, you degenerates? None of this would happen if you just chased the dick.

Based and bussypilled

If only it were so easy 😔

Why is it always nerds who air their dirty laundry out on twitter like it's something we should be concerned about?

It’s not surprising that “internet personalities” who spend their whole lives playing video games and seeking attention aren’t the most stable

Video game attorney

What a racket.

Overwatch continues to exist while Paragon was murdered. The biggest travesty of our time

Paragon’s murder was tragic but that’s epic games’ fault

While true, I was moreso making the comparison that trash like Overwatch can be funded while a legitimate gem like Paragon just gets thrown in the garbage

true, yep, that’s true, yep, pretty true

You mean Super Monday Night Combat

AKA video game attorney

I remember this fuck. Someone on twitter asked him what to do because the girl on that gamers rise up product campaign was DCMA-ing videos of people showing how she was a shitty person and his response is basically you're asking my help so you can harass her then he tweeted that girl in that campaign if she needs any help. I sure hope someone archived these tweets because I know at least one was deleted quickly.

People with PCOS who are too fat to defend themselves or run away are fun to abuse. I like to take a spoon, heat it up until it's glowing hot, then place it on the skin while they're asleep. The reaction when they wake up after the 25th time of being burned by a redhot piece of metal is amazing. You can literally piecemeal their mental stability down to complete insanity, then leave them in their own homes helpless and alone. :DDDDDDDDDD

I am just a simple bot, *not** a moderator of this subreddit* | bot subreddit | contact the maintainers

you really want to jingle those jammies of OW fanatics just point out the game would be nothing without the sexy ladies it features and the actual gameplay is barely passable.

I can’t remember where but there was some leak where it was revealed that Valve was deliberately neglecting TF2 in the hopes that Overwatch would become so huge they could just shut it down.

Turns out Overwatch is too shitty to kill some 15-year old game that its devs want dead.

Who would've guessed that O*erwatch G*mers are the ones who know how to treat w*men the proper way? That's a based from me

I really would not have expected this from grown men who play video games for a living.

Lord of the Rings trilogy length google doc of receipts and evidence

good god, is it finally time for gamergate 2?

I have a feeling that when people get sick enough of all this cancelling shit sexual assault wont just be ignored but normalized as in raping a bitch wont even raise an eyebrow.

This just proves never put anything in writing.

If someone accused me of sleeping with a gamer I'd claim rape too.

he would make me feel guilty for not letting him say it, and i believed it. i would feel like shiz because i couldnt change my comfort zone to match his

Shit reads like a teenage diary

probably because it was a literal teenager

the gameplay is a blend of moba and FPS.

😴😴😴
