Just recently, Overwatch League player Félix “xQc” Lengyel praised improvement, but he’s already falling back into his old patterns – and this time even more obscenely. The punishment followed immediately.
xQc, a professional player of the Dallas Fuel, can’t help it. He has always been known for his heated behavior and has been banned by Blizzard twice. However, xQc recently stated that it doesn’t really reflect his nature.
All the pressure on him would lead to his outbursts, but he now claims to have everything under control.
The improvement was already set aside yesterday.
xQc feels provoked, openly insults homosexual player
Yesterday, the Houston Outlaws swept xQc’s team, Dallas Fuel, off the stage with a score of 4:0. xQc didn’t even play.
Meanwhile, Houston Outlaws player Austin “Muma” Wilmot used the expression “rolled and smoked”—a phrase often used by xQc—to express his joy over the dominance.
xQc saw this as a jab implying that he couldn’t be part of the game and exploded.
Lengyel vented his anger in a subsequent stream. With harsh words: “No, you didn’t even smoke shit! Shut your fucking mouth! Go and suck a big dick. I mean, you like that, right!“
The openly homosexual Wilmot aka Muma reacted relatively calmly in a subsequent stream. “I don’t care,” he said, but later added: “He’s a homophobic piece of trash. I will just keep winning.”
In a statement today on Twitter, xQc expressed remorse again and promised: “Everything is happening so damn fast lately, it’s so damn broken. I hope to turn this around for the better. I’m sorry, Muma.” Muma publicly accepted this apology.

However, this does not prevent either the league or Dallas Fuel from punishing pro xQc harshly. While the Overwatch League immediately suspended him for four matches and imposed a fine of $2,000, his own organization added to that.
For the entire duration of Stage 1, which lasts until February 10, Lengyel will remain suspended, his team announced.
Additionally, Dallas Fuel expressed its support regarding Blizzard’s decision. It was the right call. They will continue to support Lengyel during his suspension, providing him with training and support so he can improve and ensure that such incidents do not occur in the future.
