![]() If this video on Tyler1’s YouTube channel is any indication, Tyler is taking his ban in stride, in the true spirit of trolling.Ĭan't stream league anymore. He knows he can't win, but he never gave up. Tributes have been flowing in to Tyler1 on Twitter: When I get meteos, he flames me especially and blames me. He literally will not gank lanes for players he does not like yet he says he try hards.- Marko Sosnicki April 29, 2016Įvery time I've had tyler1, he tryhards, never flames, blames himself. Holy shit meteos is about as 2 faced as geranimo. You could try to understand it, or you could enjoy the Clockwork Orange-ness of the invented language: specific to the MOBA (multiplayer online battle arena) genre. The impenetrable gibberish and highly developed jargon references tactics - “jungling,” “ganking,” etc. If you’re not versed in League of Legends jargon, the discussion over Tyler’s ban can be thrillingly incomprehensible. The community as a whole seems split: some thankful that Riot appears to be paying attention to the troll problems, others angry at the perceived hypocrisy, and, because this is gaming, a large and supportive group cheering Tyler on. If you are going to show rough Justice on players of this game, be balanced and show it to all. Why don’t you do the same thing for them? Those are bad members (if we can call those two that) of the LoL community. (This kind of “why him and not him?” debate after a harsh sanction against a player should be familiar to fans of, you know, old-fashioned sports.) A post with more than 1,100 upvotes on the forums reads: Riot don’t be hypocrites…banning Tyler1 whilst you allow Kaceytron and Nicktron continue to ruin the community for so long now. At the same time, some community members are asking why Tyler received a ban while other reportedly problematic players are left standing. Twitter has won a battle in its war against spam. Riot has a clear incentive to ban Tyler for unsportsmanlike conduct, since League of Legends is infamous for its hostility towards new and less-skilled players, and Riot clearly doesn’t want to encourage that. ![]() ![]() The story is, actually, fairly simple: As Kotaku reports, Tyler1 was a popular streamer - meaning that he broadcast his play sessions on Twitch - who “exploded earlier this month after word got out that his streams featured non-stop trolling.” (Intentional feeding is when a player gets killed repeatedly and intentionally in order to assist the other team.) “Because of a well-documented history of account bans for verbal abuse, intentional feeding, as well as account sharing/purchasing, evasion of sportsmanship systems, and player harassment, we will not allow Tyler1 to hold a League of Legends account, indefinitely,” a moderator wrote on the official message boards. And if you don’t think that Tyler Was Permanently Banned From a Video Game is important news, well, check your Facebook trending topics. Nuralinov said that would not happen in this case because Son and the other athletes tested positive in national-level tests within Kazakhstan and not at international events.The community surrounding popular e-sport (pronounced “video game”) League of Legends is embroiled in a minor scandal after Riot, the developer overseeing the game, banned a popular streamer by the name of Tyler1. ![]() National teams can lose future Olympic places if they have repeated doping cases - a sanction which has applied to Kazakhstan in the past - or be barred from competitions. The Central Asian nation has been stripped of medals from the 2008, 20 Olympics for various breaches of anti-doping rules. Kazakhstan has a long history of doping in elite-level weightlifting. ![]() I especially want to emphasize this in relation to the Olympic award of Igor Son," WFRK general secretary Aldiyar Nuralinov said in a statement. "This out-of-competition testing was undertaken after six months following the international competitions where (the athletes) had taken part, so there is no issue of disqualifying their results or returning their medals. The WFRK said the positive test would not lead to Son being stripped of his Olympic medal. ![]()
