So, reports are going around that last night that a pro SSB: Ultimate went on Twitter and posted what was pretty much a confession that he's guilty of a couple instances Sexual Misconduct. He was also drunk at the time.
This pretty much blew the lid off in the fighting game community and others have come forth and have subsequently been banned from various tournaments. https://www.ign.com/articles/2019/08...owing-evo-2019 |
