Forsaken and dismantled in Shanghai: BBQ Pipebomb EP.06
4This is the 'Pipebomb' podcast Episode SIX from Hardware BBQ!
Today we talk about Optic India and the controversial gamer 'Forsaken' who was caught in the Zowie Extremesland Asia 2018 for cheating in a LAN during a livestream and the antics that followed. He has a history of hacking, getting banned and getting away with it. The eSports community blames the people working in certain positions and Optic India.
Other stories:
A gamer bringing this up as an excuse to bash a journalist for not interviewing gamers and calling out inconsistencies by two major events in India.
Bonus mini pipebomb after the outro: Caster's shenanigans of claiming to be physically threatened by professional gamers in Taiwan Excellence Cup held in Mumbai. PRs and people who were there till the end of the event are unaware of such nuisance happening at all. Follow-up in the next pipebomb, depending on how serious the claims are- whether true or false!
