Twitch streamer is so bad that Riot bans him 3 times in one day, along with all his friends

earthpressnews

In League of Legends, there was an international incident in South Korea: The twitch streamer Ashkan “TF Blade” Homyounie messed it up so badly with the LoL players there during his trip to South Korea that it had consequences for him. He was banned. Other US streamers in South Korea were also punished by Riot Korea.

Who is TF Blade?

  • We have often reported about TF Blade on MeinMMO: The 24-year-old is a hot-headed US streamer with problems with impulse control: If he loses in LoL, he also loses his nerve and insults fellow players and opponents in the worst possible way. Something like “Tyler1 without the muscles and the humor”.
  • TF Blade has been working on setting a record in LoL since 2019: he travels to foreign countries and wants to become number 1 in the LoL solo queue there. The players there usually don’t find that so exciting because it insults them on the way to the top. He once insulted players in Turkey as “dogs”.
  • This time he wanted to make it to the top again in South Korea and he really blew it.

    This is the new TF Blade scandal: TF Blade and a number of other LoL streamers traveled to South Korea for a “boot camp”, hoping to compete against the best in the game. Such a trip loosens up everyday LoL life and brings viewers. Because the solo cue in North America is considered bad, if you make it in South Korea, you can make it anywhere.

    As an e-sports journalist summarizes on Twitter, the disputes quickly began:

  • TF Blade started flaming famous Korean pro players and YouTubers
  • Word got around in Korean forums, where people were angry about the “invasion” from the USA
  • A 2nd US streamer clashed with a Korean professional. He said: He would have him banned
  • TF Blade received a 2 week ban but bypassed it by playing on a new account
  • Now Riot Korea intervened and banned all streamers from the TF Blade environment. Believed it could be an IP ban against the hotel they checked into

    • The German streamer NoWay4U commented on this mass ban with irritation on Twitter:

    Streamers used to be unreasonable: I’m just toxic

    TF Blade says: He made a statement on Twitter and said: He received 3 bans in one day, which must be a new record.

    He just can’t control himself and flame trolls and bad players. He won’t apologize for that either. He’s only interested in winning.

    He admits he’s toxic and deserves the bans. But so many others are just bad and would not be banned.

    What he finds unfair is that he now gets the blame just because Riot Korea is so stupid and also bans other streamers.

    If you want to win in Korea, you have to be friendly

    That’s behind it. Unfortunately, TF Blade corresponds to the worst clichés you can have of LoL players in 2023 as in 2019.

    He is viewed critically in the community. On Reddit, it’s not surprising how angry Koreans react when someone comes along and behaves in such a provocative manner. We also know from other trips by aggressive US streamers how quickly word of bad behavior spreads in Korea and how negatively they react to these players.

    They say TF Blade just doesn’t learn it. How can you insult the local players. In fact, TF Blade just seems to be someone who neither wants nor can change.
