Last minute The world stood up after Putins decision in

In the game DOTA 2 (Steam) there is a discussion about the caster Austin “Cap” Walsh: He has now used his personal contacts with Valve to permanently ban a YouTuber from DOTA 2. The community applauds, some see YouTuber “RawDota Henry” as one of the most toxic players in DOTA 2.

This was the scene:

  • The Caster Cap was private in a game of DOTA 2 and his team lost, and by a huge margin. One of his teammates was the YouTuber “RawDota Henry”.
  • As Dotesports reports, the game was actually already lost for a team of the two after about 20 minutes: The opponents had 30 more kills. RawDota was so frustrated with the way the match was going that he put his items on the ground and destroyed them: In DOTA 2, this is considered a gesture by toxic players: “I gave up, I’m not doing anything anymore.”
  • As a result, viewers of his stream saw Cap jot down the player’s ID and identify him as “the infamous HenryDota.” He then said, “Bye, Henry.” (via youtube)

    The next day comes the permanent ban

    How did it go from there?? Apparently, the caster sent the player’s ID to a fellow DOTA 2 developer.

    One now thought: Well, the YouTuber will probably now be put in a “low priority queue” to serve his sentence there.

    But a day later, the player was overtaken by a permanent ban on his account. Apparently Cap used his contacts here or asked for a favor that ultimately led to the player being permanently banned.

    How is this discussed? In the community, this is discussed in two parts:

  • Some say Cap “abused his powers” to manually ban someone. That is “abuse of power”.
  • But others thank Caps, they think the YouTuber is terrible and his streams testify to a mental illness. He’s always been an “ultra-toxic player” who dodged bans and smurfed: He’s one of DOTA 2’s worst players and doesn’t deserve anyone defending him. The position apparently agrees with the majority of users.
