German Players Sintolol and P4wnyhof Disqualified From Global Games
A lot of drama has surrounded the Global Games since it's first announcement, and once again recently when each countries winners were announced. Two days ago Sebastian "Forsen" Fors conceded his spot in the Swedish team due to Mats “P4wnyhof” Kathage making it into the German team, a promise he made to his community back when the event was announced.
Now, not even a week after the winners have been announced Blizzard released a new statement, disqualifying both Thomas “Sintolol” Zimmer and Mats “P4wnyhof” Kathage from participation in the German team due to inappropriate and unsportsmanlike comments.
As of now it's unclear which players will be replacing them.
Quote from BlizzardDear community,
In the light of recent, inappropriate, and unsportsmanlike comments made by Thomas “Sintolol” Zimmer and Mats “P4wnyhof” Kathage, we have decided to rescind their invitation to represent Team Germany in the upcoming Hearthstone Global Games.
We’re in the process of identifying replacement players, and will reach out to them privately.
- The Hearthstone Team
He cheated for his team in a tournament, he also viewbotted his channel earlier in his career. I think people would be more forgiving if he didn't engage in such childish behavior on twitter.
on kotaku they explain in detail what happened. Basicly p4wnyhof made homophobic jokes about sintolol mom, than about his two dads. Sintolol responded in his stream saying hitler was right and that p4wnyhof was a re**rd. They both got what they deserve.
There is very high amount of evidence that he was viewbotting, he also run some tournament called "Gentleman's Cup" in which he helped a team with his friends (I don't remember much details), he also deleted Lifecoach from friendslist and accused him of stealing his content because he was using the spectate mode on pawny during one of Lifecoach's stream when he had a break. On top of that the way he mods his chat means that any kind of critique towards him means that you get a permaban from his chat, which isn't something a lot of people like. He also apparently said some homophobic stuff towards Sintolol which is why he got banned in the end. (I've heard that it started with pawny saying these homophobic stuff and then sintolol said that he isn't surprised that someone like Hitler existed if somebody like pawny walks around)
And then more recently he made ''fun'' of Sintol's not being popular and then implied that he has two dads. (pic's: 1. https://bot.gyazo.com/201548ed4b5d510a2836e6f1adc3d877.png 2. https://gyazo.com/57a47d681da8bb57a0bb2b7a44a92308 )
viewbotting is essentially stealing potential viewers and donations from other streamers that are trying to make it big honestly. That alone should be enough.
he also recently started using follower only chat and sub only
For the people who didn't follow this from the start and want to know why the two players are being disqualified:
P4wnyhoof: Made fun of Sintol's not being popular and then implied that he has two dads. (pic's: 1. https://bot.gyazo.com/201548ed4b5d510a2836e6f1adc3d877.png 2. https://gyazo.com/57a47d681da8bb57a0bb2b7a44a92308 )
- Not mentioned but a lot of people also think that he shouldn't have been invited in the first place because of viewbotting and cheating in a tournament where he was admin. Also Forsen left the tournament because he's against viewbotters and wanted to set a example. Edit: Also forgot to add that he removed Lifecoach from his friendlist and acused him of content stealing his content because Lifecoach was spectating him during a 5 min break.
Sintolol: This one is quite easy to explain, just quote him: "Mentally handicapped people... why are these people allowed to survive? I can see why people like Hitler existed when p4wny walk around on the street'' (1. he deleted the VOD where he said this, but here's a youtube clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eupYGUqvBBI )
Thanks alot.
meanwhile Kripp insults every other player he plays against, I doubt he'll be banned for "unsportsmanlike" comments any time soon.
You, sir, are a blessing to humanity
well there is nothing wrong with what sintolol said. they sure fucked him over. people always overreact when they hear "hitler"
pretty sure kripp has said stuff like 'get raped' and similar more than a few times.
if blizzard's going to be humourless literalists then they should at least be consistent. I don't know how anyone can believe the hitler comment was anything but a joke. gimme a break.
(and even if ''it was just a joke'' it's pretty fucking common knowledge that you shouldn't make jokes with Hitler on the internet)
lmfao. didn't realize sportsmanship was gauged by the specificity of the insults. now I know.
besides this whole notion that sportsmanship should be imposed by corporate mandate is creepy. reminds me of Demolition Man.
Forsen Boisssss!
I have two questions:
Who the F... is P4wnihof and what is it that he did/do that's making everyone so pissed with this guy?
I dont understand the downvote... Could you, at least, answer the question and explain why what I asked was so wrong? Thanks
I'm not the one downvoting, but in case you still don't know what happend here's the comment I made that explains why they were disqulified;
