League of Legends is currently a “national” game, attracting millions of gamers worldwide. Not only regular players and professional players but also many streamers use League of Legends as a game for entertainment and to attract more viewers. Among them is Quin69, a male streamer with 660 thousand followers on Twitch.
Specifically, this male streamer decided to “change things up” with the “national” game released by Riot at the beginning of the new year (previously, Quin69’s content was quite diverse). But of course, for someone who has just approached the game, landing last hits on minions is still quite challenging. Therefore, Quin often misses minions and last hits. This immediately became a topic for a segment of toxic fans to mock and belittle him.
Being teased for poor last hitting is not something only Quin has faced, but he might be one of the names who cannot keep calm. After being donated by viewers just to “take a jab at him”, suggesting he should practice in the training room first because his last hits looked “embarrassingly bad”, Quin “lost it” and smashed his keyboard with his bare hands, accompanied by some very harsh words in his moment of rage.
The aftermath shows that Quin’s keyboard was “shattered to pieces,” and surely, with such force, the male streamer’s hands would also be significantly affected. Quin himself had to keep shaking his hand due to the intense pain once the anger had subsided.
But from this, it can also be seen that the life of a streamer is never easy. Besides maintaining constant interaction with fans, streamers also face countless pressures, notably the toxicity from a significant portion of the audience. Those who can keep calm will continue their work, but there are also many cases where streamers have to stop streaming immediately because things have gone beyond control.
