The Top 10 Most Controversial Bans in Esports History
Ойындар
In the world of esports it’s pretty difficult to keep things like cheating, toxicity or bad behavior under wraps when thousands of people are watching.
The consequences for such public bad behavior can range from a slap on the wrist to career-ending permanent bans, as some of the people on today’s list found out.
Here are the Top 10 Banned Players in Esports History.

Are we really going to just ignore the fact why blitzchung was really banned that fast for what he said? He got banned that fast because it was putting a bad light on China, not for just being a political statement. An American company bending its knees for China. Then Blizzard made a half assed apology and then everyone in the community thought it was ok, even though it didnt really address why this was a big deal. Still really disappointed in Blizzard and most of the community tbh :\

Need to rename this video from controversial to biggest biggest bans.
Here’s my story, I started playing league of legends back in 2013, I had internet troubles and disconnected accidentally from a lot of games so riot banned my account for 1 month, one of my friends had two accounts so he let me play on his until the ban was over, he had more runes than I did and a few more champ so I ended up keeping that account once my internet was fixed, I played with it for three years and spent a lot of money in it, then stopped playing in 2016. I came back in 2020 and found out that someone started using my account and did something so it was permabanned and when I tried to contact riot support they told me that since I wasn’t the original creator of that account I couldn’t do anything about it, also I haven’t spoken with that guy for years now so all of my skins (a lot of them you can’t get anymore) are gone and I made a new account, if You read this far, first I love you dude! And second I know I was dumb

@Neil Rao He really did deserver it man. If me, you, or anyone else would've been caught using the same thing. Permaban no doubt. The fact that Epic has kept it permanent is great, cause it shows there are consequences to your actions no matter what your status is and no matter how much money is on the line. And also saying "Don't do this, this is very bad" has been said for everything, and no one listens. That statement means nothing. But yes, he really did deserve a lifetime ban.

That's why I got some joy in seeing Activision-Blizzard's scandals (involving harrassment and executive cover-ups) come to light. Just shows how awful its leadership is, and its recent games have suffered because of their greed. Sometimes you need to be patient. We reap what we sow, but the crops need time to grow before the harvest.

Cheat code is fun at home. But why did they think no one would not notice on a tournament game? Someone so simple, kind of deserve to be permanent banned

UNBAN SWAG: here is some backstory from richard lewis: Swag was poor. Him and his family were living in a trailer. He DIDN"T get paid by IBP. His family did NOT support his esports, and demanded that he MADE MONEY. HE DID NOT DESERVE A BAN THAT FUCKING LONG.
I had a Blizzard account banned for "Abusive Text Chat" when all I did was type "Stop with the racism, it only makes you look dumb...".
Ive got a ban on MW3 Multiplayer, put more as 7000 hours in it, got banned because i got into a modded lobby while searching for S&D, all my stats, progress, everything got Fk'd & got perma banned. Appealed so many time without any result, Rip 7000 hours.
The 322 scandal had a butterfly effect coz it leads to ibp punishment and other valve tournament match fixing scandals
My main account for rainbow six siege got banned for 30 minutes because there’s a glitch where you can’t hear banshees and proximity mines and I flick headshot a ting but the final killcam didn’t add the noise everyone in the lobby reported me not even a minute later BANNED FOR 30 MINUTES

Funny thing is that key is just used to open vents. So he was able to open vents slightly faster than most. He wasn’t using an aimbot, he wasn’t using wallhacks, he wasn’t using anything to help his aim or kills. He was getting into vents/walls slightly faster than a normal hyper spamming pro. This also means that everything Pengu complained about is just lies.
