Zeros has to “pay a heavy price” for his slip of the tongue related to a sensitive keyword
At a time when the League of Legends community is focusing all attention on Faker, on the evening of October 18, Zeros – the notorious figure of the VCS, had a strong “self-destruct” moment after a slip of the tongue while climbing ranks. Specifically, according to Zeros, he was banned by Riot after insulting his teammates in a ranked match. Notably, the former SBTC Esports star was just about to reach Challenger when this “self-destruct” happened.
What’s even more remarkable is that the content he used to criticize his teammates was the term “no m*m”, an extremely sensitive keyword in the League of Legends community. This keyword originated from some of Faker’s anti-fans who used it to criticize or mock the legend of League of Legends. Therefore, whenever this term is seen, especially in matches involving Faker, it inevitably causes intense controversy. In the VCS, player Sty1e was also heavily punished by Riot and GAM Esports for using this term in a ranked match, which coincidentally featured Faker.
The community also cannot sympathize with Zeros
Zeros’ self-destruct moment is certainly not directly related to or aimed at Faker, but his slip of the tongue and self-affecting actions are not new. Back in 2021, a slip of the tongue related to the pandemic ruined his career. Since then, the former SE star has frequently put himself in trouble or become a topic of controversy.
It can be said that Zeros is currently going through a tough phase. Just a few days ago, his girlfriend, hot girl Yogurt Ng, personally announced that the two had “gone their separate ways” and requested fans not to mention Zeros’ name. Now, he has also “brought troubles upon himself” due to a moment of impatience. Whether Zeros will change in the future is something no one can predict.
