League of Legends pro arrested for Murder

For all links and sources please see the description. The situation in this video is ongoing and I've reported on the current information and allegations that are available to me. If something in this video proves to be untrue it will be rectified. The outcome and exact situation is yet to be confirmed, this video is based on the most common situations that cross-referenced with one another. Take from it what you will.

[@krystians2016]

i dont say its not true but saying in first few seconds that some of those informations are being confirmed and having "League of Legends pro arrested for Murder" is not great combination is it? 0:02 things to be confirmed - lol pro arrested for murder

[@RightfootWestHam]

Hello. Letting you know that they have changed/updated the punishment system and rules. According to "section 7" , riot can now ban whoever they want for whatever reason they want and it can not be appealed. Not only that: Even if you dont say anything , you dont type .. you just play the game. If you get X reports (not many needed) you get punished. This happen to me. I have an account , I have not written a single word on that account... Have been playing the best I can and I still got punished. This is an account that is almost level 40. Only played ~20 ranked games. Tried my best and hovering at ~45% winratio. Whoever is in charge of these systems over at Riot Games really dont want players to play League anymore. Their behaviour here makes 0 sense, and their support is quiet and refuse to engage on the topic.

@@josef5636 Not everyone grew up with no supervision and unlimited internet access during THAT period, or are deadened war veterans, the majority are normal people and hearing people killing others elicits negative reactions from normal people.

I don't think he actually did all this just because he was told "no". People don't just live normal lives and then one day get rejected one time and flip out - this was more of a "straw that broke the camel's back" situation. He already had to have been on edge/very miserable for this one argument to drive him to not only commit murder but also attempt suicide. Mental health issues, pro career that didn't really go as far as he hoped, and probably a lot of other factors led to a rejected sexual advance being enough to set him off.

On the contrary He was gonna off himself because of the moment If they off him he already stewed in his thoughts of what happened and will happen. At this point he very well doesn't want want to die. Besides, its a lot more humiliating having someone else decide when you die.

Word of advice for women. Don't date the guy thats pro in league or had a high rank. Date the guy that you can visually see that is the determining factor to a teams win/ loss. His performance is what's decides whetehr the team wins or loses and nobody else matters. That is called a carry and they are in every elo. Find them. Stop dating the funny troll guy or the guy with a high division braggina bout how great he is. Date the guy thats actually not delusional and is the carry. Reason because everyone else is a troll and a psychotic. Human : troll Carry : casual or high rank real : fake sane : insane
