The Canadian Tectone is the biggest streamer on Twitch for the Asian MMO Wuthering Waves. He is also one of the biggest streamers at Zenless Zen Zero and Honkai Star Rail. But now he’s caught up in an ugly drama. His ex-girlfriend makes serious accusations against a man, and Tectone seems to feel addressed. It is believed that the allegations originate from the VTuber Frame, his ex-wife.
Content warning: The article discusses sexual assault.
These are the allegations: Pinkchyu is a medium-sized V-tuber on Twitch. On November 21st, she posted a series of graphic tweets about sexual harassment. She stays in the third person, so she doesn’t write clearly about herself, but about a person whose name she doesn’t mention. She writes:
How do you deal with it when a guy is abusive and first makes you cry and then pushes your head into his crotch and demands that you perform oral pleasure on him. And his excuse is: “It turns me on when you cry.”
She goes on to say that the person was made to feel guilty that she had to be sexually active because that was her job – she didn’t pay rent.
Pinkychu says that the person was systematically degraded. She felt ugly. She was told to change her clothes, her hairstyle, and wear makeup around the house. That drives self-esteem into the basement.
Pinkychu’s accusations are general in nature
Does she make specific allegations against someone?? No, Pinkychu generally stays. She asks: What do you do when a guy demands this behavior from someone?
Pinkychu says several women have told these stories about a man and several witnesses have reported how the person belittled others in public.
Even though she doesn’t give a name, it is known to many X users that Pinykchu was in a relationship with the big streamer Tectone. Therefore, they think Tectone could be the perpetrator whose abusive behavior she describes.
Tectone believes: A person was manipulated – he did everything for the person
This is what Tectone says: Tectone commented on the allegations in a stream on November 21st. But he warns: Anyone who is confused about what exactly this is about will continue to be confused after his statement.
Tectone doesn’t address Pinkychu directly, but says he knows the person who needs to hear this right now. But he says he was forced to sign a non-disclosure agreement – by the person who is now “intervening in a manipulative manner from outside”.
He meant it honestly: he did everything for this person, helped her with everything and fixed everything.
But now the person would “listen to other people” who would manipulate them and make them believe some shit.
The person imagines problems that never existed
And it’s crazy how these things that happened in your own head – you’re coming at me now and that’s just not nice.
Fans believe: The allegations actually come from the streamer’s ex-wife
How is this discussed? Even though Pinkychu and Tectone don’t openly talk about each other, the situation is clearly getting worse on reddit. It’s clear: Tectone is accused of sexual assault by his ex-girlfriend.
Apparently some fans know more. A user on reddit says: This is apparently about Tectone’s ex-wife, the VTuber Fream (via reddit). She is now dating the ex-manager of Tectone.
We reported on the situation on MeinMMO in December 2022: Twitch streamer has to give up his wife and best friend – “Bad things follow me like the plague”
At the time, a good friend of Tectone’s, Rich Campbell, was also accused of sexual harassment.
The topic is currently being heavily discussed on Twitch, also because Tectone is in OTK, the group of the controversial streamer Asmongold. The streamer Kaceytron, who is enemies with Asmongold, has already called Tectone a rapist. The situation on Twitch is currently extremely dire, the fronts between individual camps and groups are hardening: Conflict over moderation on Twitch escalates, leading to a critic being banned for life
Tectone draws conclusions, leaves OTK
Update 11/25: On Saturday November 23rd, Tectone announced that he was withdrawing from the streaming organization OTK (via sportskeeda). He had been there for 3 years.
In a statement, he said: Other people have been criticized for doing “stupid shit.” He doesn’t want that. He only wants to worry about himself, not about other people suffering because of his actions. Ultimately, he is always a troll and a rage-baiter – that’s just how he is.
He does not address the specific allegations, but it is generally assumed that he is drawing conclusions from the allegations by resigning from OTK.
In 2022, when he separated from his wife, Tectone said how important OTK was to him in this difficult hour: Twitch streamer has to give up his wife and his best friend – “Bad things follow me like the plague”
