I doubt anyone would care about this if he hadn't just joined up with EG.

Well he just rages and its his own stream where he is allowed and says that their can be vulgar language. Yes its not the right thing to say/do, but no need to get all in his ass for it. Let him live

It's important to note that his casting personality is COMPLETELY different to his playing personality. When playing he's a foul mouthed dick, but then so are people like destiny. When he's casting he's (imo) polite, intelligent, and reasonable.

I don't see why everyone is complaining about this thread. It is a nice summary of what has happened. I'm also surprised people are saying "He raged, who cares?" When do you think it is ever appropriate to use racist language like that? Never. If you are trying to represent the community you simply cannot do it. Almost reminds me of the guy last week from the FGC that said sexism is an inherit part of the FGC and should be embraced.

I get frustrated on the ladder like everyone else but every game ends with me saying "GG." I don't even represent the community. I'm not saying he has to be calm after every loss but using language like this should be unacceptable.

TL amuses me, how can Katu get shit for jokingly saying that Dragon MAY have been cheating, but orb get's defended for clearly being racist and demeaning of sexual orientation?

Multiple people have said "who cares" in this thread. It's obvious who cares -- EG, his employer. Do you get it? He is a representative of a legitimate company. As an employee, you have to carry yourself a certain way as you're a representation of something larger than yourself.

Once again the ugly attitude of "you need to relax derp he's just joking derp settle down" seems to prevail on TL. Open your eyes.

I think anyone who lied to their boss about this sort of thing would have been fired a while ago.

Hum, orb being a dick at times and using bm quite are known facts. But saying he's racist because he uses "nigga" come on...

Orb is a really good caster, I couldn't care less if he calls someone nigger on the internets. You are not a racist just because you write racial slurs as bm over the internet IMO.

Who the hell is Orb and why should we care about what he or anyone else says in a ladder game? His opponents can just report it and it's finished~~

The desire for drama is getting ridiculous here(more than before).

because he did it on a tournament stream which was supposed to be completely professional whereas orb's stream is a personal stream.
