Former professional esports player and current Twitch streamer Felix “xQc” Lengyel has been temporarily suspended by Twitch after he was caught stream sniping in Fall Guys.
The incident took place during a Twitch Rivals tournament during GlitchCon, which was initially reported over the past weekend by Dot Esports.
xQc’s team was able to stream-snipe their way to a victory over the team of DrLupo, Shroud, and Tyler1, which eliminated them from the tournament. You can check out a clip from the TOS violation right here, courtesy of Shroud.
Twitch Rivals issued the following, according to PC Gamer: “/xQcOW’s actions during the tiebreaker of the Fall Guys Match on November 14, 2020 violated the Official Tournament Code of Conduct and Game Play Rules found in Section 7 of the Official Tournament Rules,” Twitch Rivals ruled. “As a result and effective immediately, /xQcOW will (I) receive a six-month ban from Twitch Rivals and (ii) will forfeit prize winnings from the GlitchCon event.
At GlitchCon our player conduct rules were violated. We require all participants to abide by the same rules in order to play in a tournament. As a result, xQc has been issued a temporary Twitch account suspension, a temporary Twitch Rivals ban & forfeited associated prize money. pic.twitter.com/SA8umOdS9E
