What are your thoughts on him leaving? What do you think about his new team choice? https://x.com/TSM/status/1790064611577794699

@E9ine_AC since he's one of the most toxic pro players I've ever seen, I'd personally like to see him quit Apex entirely.

@BallisticMVPYou must not watch his matches where he degrades his teammates. Just choose to ignore all those clips.

@BallisticMVP He goes further than his teammates tho. He lashes out at enemies, random teammates and the devs. All on stream in front of more than 10k people, many of whom are kids who then go on Apex and blurt out the same stuff pretending to be him. Be it toxic or abusive, it's all the same to me. And because he has an audience he enables others to think it's ok.

@E9ine_ACIf I spoke to coworkers the way he does to his I'd be fired on the spot so let's not justify his toxicity with "It's a job". Even as a Chief Engineer I couldn't speak this way.

I know why I think he's toxic, but in case there's stuff you know that I don't, please elaborate on his toxicity.

Did anyone else on here watch Hal's video with that retired programmer from Blizzard that goes by "Thor?" It was about the source of the hack. I am just curious what thoughts people had about it, since I could tell he had a lot on his mind during that conversation. Could explain a lot about why he's leaving his squad, not saying who is in the right and who isn't, I just wonder if that incident didn't push him to this somehow.

it reads like this to me or any other superstar soccer player moving from Real Madrid to Manchester United.
Its just business.
Would have been more news to me, if he all of a sudden decides to start a Pro Career in Marvel Rivals ... 😉

@AymCTL Why would getting hacked cause a switch of teams?

Hal said he's moving because he wants to play with Zero and Gen. Hal has openly complained about wanting to be the best and constantly grinding. He has said stuff about others lack of commitment.

@DankToliet I just don’t find it toxic.
