What Happened About Racist Comments Between RRQ fl1pzjder & NTH TenTen?

This problem first exploded when one of the influencers from India, mimosa, posted a video where TenTen made the comment “F— India”. This happened when they were losing and mocking each other’s scores and KDA of the players.

TenTen himself misunderstood and thought fl1pzjder was Indian and this made the Indian community hot.

Racist enough? @NORTHEPTION @tentenvlrt

Their feud occurred before the racist comments were made by TenTen. It seems that the IGL RRQ also made comments that might make TenTen hot himself.

Fl1pzjder himself made several comments such as “Just talk to your anime” and “Just talk to Gojo Satoro”. This comment might make TenTen offended too and finally there was a racist comment at the end of the game.

Fl1zjder provided clarification regarding his comment in which he said that he was referencing the anime profile picture on the TenTen social media account.

Even though fl1pzjder is seen as the one who makes the banter first in this rank game, he doesn’t make any racist comments. Making comments about anime is quite natural for trash talk while playing.

Moreover, almost all VALORANT players can be said to be weeaboos who always post anime memes and use anime profile pictures.

Actually, Riot Games has banned some of its pro players several times. Like last year, a keznit player from KRU Esports has been banned and put on probation for 6 months for making racist comments as well.

In addition, there is also a Cloud9 Zellsis player who was banned from participating in VCT NA 2021 Stage 1 for making offensive and discriminatory remarks to tournament officials.
