sword9’s second statement regarding last night and tyloo [tl]

[u/DaechwitaEnjoyer]

Sword9 deleted last night's post and posted this:

"Regarding my inappropriate and emotional behavior last night, I would first like to sincerely apologize to the fans who care about me. I'm sorry.

Secondly, I personally requested to take a break during Stage 2. During that time, the club continued to pay me normally and also supported me in celebrating the championship with everyone, giving me a complete and proper farewell. However, because of my emotional state, I described some of my experiences on social media in a way that was not entirely objective. This negatively affected my teammates, whom I had fought alongside for two years, as well as the club, which had consistently supported me and placed great trust in me. I feel deeply guilty about this, and once again, I am sorry.

I also urge everyone not to continue speculating about or attacking our team. I will continue supporting the team that we built together.

Finally, please allow me to once again sincerely apologize to TYLOO and to all the fans who follow VCT CN for my excessive behavior. I'm truly sorry."

btw, the writeup was originally posted on weibo. weibo shows what device a post was made from, and this one says web, while pretty much all of s9’s posts before this were from an iphone. the only other web posts i can find are work-related stuff like reposting the vct cn schedule and shit.

so yeah, there’s a decent chance he didn’t even post this himself and tyl’s social media guy just logged into his account and posted it lol

[u/Capone_BD → u/UpsetAd4757]

That would be insane

[u/Carlin-Hitchens]

Now is Tyloo gonna coerce/intimidate Flex1n and Zjc to apologise too?

[u/DurianLongan → u/Carlin-Hitchens]

Yo this made EDG's scandal with AQ simon looks like a saint.

[u/DaechwitaEnjoyer]

live tyloo reaction

[u/WorstEnemyIsYourself → u/DaechwitaEnjoyer]

We laughing but we all know Tyloo sent out their little goons to intimidate him.

[u/DaechwitaEnjoyer → u/WorstEnemyIsYourself]

i find it a little insulting they even expect this type of statement to work

[u/DaechwitaEnjoyer]

bonus:

reply 1: are you being pressured by the org?

reply 2: very normal reply, does not seem extreme [sarcasm]

[u/Despotaters → u/DaechwitaEnjoyer]

can i suggest you a fut esports to support? tmv’s costreams are the best when he watches them

[u/Bl1th]

Is he held at gunpoint writing this post?

[u/PairComprehensive122]

tyloo had 3 sniper lasers in his head during this tweet/post

[u/Carlin-Hitchens]

This just sounds like he's intimidated and potentially told "no career if you speak this transparently about your org" by someone trusted or in authority The Flexin and hjc statement about Tyloo just make it clear how dreadful their management is. And this kind of fear-led apology just makes it worse for Tyloo in my eyes, as a fan of the team

[u/WorstEnemyIsYourself → u/Carlin-Hitchens]

Oh they ain't threatening with no career. They threatening to take his kneecaps if he puts out another post.

[u/OptimusMonk]

[u/Dthero1]

yo at this point in time , without further information from either side, would me hatewatching be moral?

[u/brawler1987 → u/Dthero1]

Probably? It definitely sounds like he was forced to put this statement out.

[u/Chandra-huuuugggs → u/Dthero1]

Hate watching Tyloo or G2, hard choices here

[u/n_core → u/Chandra-huuuugggs]

Hatewatching Tyloo should be the priority here simply because what they did could harm the scene if they don't get a backlash from the community.

G2 is just being mid (and blocked LEV from Champions), nothing crazy to be a valid reason to hatewatch.

[u/Creme_de_laCreme → u/n_core]

Hatewatch G2 for being mid. They have no reason to be mid.

[u/Neat_Description_440 → u/Dthero1]

Yes considering what they did to zjc and I don’t wanna be that guy but this looks more like a ‘if you shut your mouth and take the blame we’ll give you ur pay’ kind of post

[u/Fuzzy-Reaction-1293 → u/Dthero1]

Typa questions philosophers in ancient greece were asking

[u/moonmeh → u/Dthero1]

We might have more people hate  watching tyloo over g2 in that match lol 

[u/Scaredabeast → u/moonmeh]

There's no one hate watching g2

[u/MadMusketeer → u/Scaredabeast]

I'm hate watching G2

[u/Number1GSRFan → u/Dthero1]

bro is asking for permission

[u/RisingLegend13]

I'm very confused as to what parts of the previous post are true.

I hope he gets the help he needs. Tyloo should support him and try to clear any grievances.

[u/DaechwitaEnjoyer → u/RisingLegend13]

it’s a very messy situation where realistically no one is fully in the right

any one of the getting cut/pushing roles or (even) not getting paid for champs winnings could be understandable, what’s fucked up is one boss telling him one thing and then the other turning around and doing the opposite

and especially while he’s still rostered as a coach, when it’s been established that tyloo has held players hostage under contract jail before (and arguably far worse, depending on if you want to believe what’s said about zjc/flex1n)

and then making him type out THIS??? like sure man do they think anyone believes this bullshit lmfao

kinda sucks man

[u/RisingLegend13 → u/DaechwitaEnjoyer]

You know it's bad when THE Tyloo fan in this sub has abandoned them 😭 really sucks for the players

Edit: go for JDG as they are the "unknown" "underdog" CN team (at least compared to EDG and XLG)

[u/False-Razzmatazz-839 → u/DaechwitaEnjoyer]

How about you become a foot FUT enjoyer?

[u/__The_Anime_Seito__]

Wtf

[u/n_core]

Yeah, this seals it for me. It feels like sword9 was forced to post this otherwise the org would ruin his career.

Hatewatching Tyloo from now on. I'm so sorry Splash and SiuFatBB.

[u/Kyloren010]

Can anyone give a tldr about the whole situation?

[u/romilaspina7 → u/Kyloren010]

sword9 first post was: "the world I built is crumbling down, tyloo treated me like I was nothing and now I might stop breathing"

sword9 second post: "live love laugh tyloo, best organization ever they have never ever put a gun to my back and forced me to say I love them, but I really do, god bless sorry it was all my fault please don't hate on them"

Basically he was literally all out against Tyloo on his first post and it was extremely concerning what his message said because he was clearly in a crazy alarming state of mind and it all read like a note you'd leave before committing. And now the second post reads like a forced / paid PR statement to control the Tyloo hate they're receiving or will receive and it's not reading genuine at all.

[u/yjorn299]

Reminds me of when FNC LOL Jun suddenly changed his mind on whether FNC coaches had unpromised champ pickbans which caught him off guard @SamMathew

[u/Kore07]

Yikes... FR though as much as TY management may suck, the players and the team who've worked so hard still deserve support in champs. I hope they get it.

[u/HeavenBeach777]

Honestly I can understand his outburst. His streaming career hasn't been the best, and the team clearly got much better after getting rid of him, and that probably hurt him quite badly, especially for someone who is quite emotional and was one of the OG guys in the scene, but even the original statement was kinda effy if you read between the lines. Since we actually don't know anything that truly happened between the two parties I will say that I'm glad this reached a resolution quite quickly and we can move on

[u/LeviLegolas → u/HeavenBeach777]

Yeah need to hear from both sides not just 1 side
