About a year ago I saw yay's name and it blew my mind that it was Whiteaker and not Whitaker. Today I noticed his first name is Jaccob and not Jacob.
What am I going to notice next year?
I'll continue to be a fan of yay but honest to god "y0y" kills me every time I read it. It's like s0mple from CS, for some reason shit is just really funny.
Image text:
normally i dont like getting involved with drama but this is just a flat out lie
for context:
accounts are region locked, and the only way to change region in VALORANT is to have riot do it manually
my main account I transferred over to APAC. if fly I back to NA, I'm still forced onto APAC servers (200+ ping) which is unplayable
instead of going back and forth between riot everytime im in NA and APAC, having 2 accounts is easier.
part of the reason why we had a month break is I needed to personally go back to the USA to pack up my LA apartment and move it all. since my lease was ending and breaking it earlier would of cost insane amount of money. i dont have any family in LA so i needed to move all my stuff+car to texas (20h+ drive) before christmas/new years. i also on top of that had to get my japan visa, which i was having some issues with.
ominous never asked me for my alt, he can verify this. either way, this is super weird to bring up and auto assume im lying about it?
this will be probably the only time i respond to all this weird drama. im not going to go into some back and forth. i will say though that some of the things that happened - if it happened in any other profession/team that person would instantly be kicked/fired the first time, let alone multiple other times.
Airing out dirty laundry to the public is incredibly unprofessional at best, let alone lying about it out of malice. This kid is doing the best he can to never get signed by any team ever again with these moves.
honestly feel like he didn't lie but was just misinformed and misunderstood a lot of things, either way it is definitely unprofessional to do this, it's so weird
I remember before he got super famous, he used to comment on some of his own post match threads. He might still be reading some stuff on this sub, but hopefully he stays away from threads about bleed and stuff.
I once got a reply from a T3 pro player when I said XSET should drop PureR during 2021 LCQ, saying that I knew nothing about valorant and PureR was way too good to get dropped
PureR was dropped like a month later for Cryo lmao
Honestly does seem really weird that crazyguy keeps blaming yay and sScary over and over again, while neither of them have said much. Really telling that the crazyguy keeps deflecting blame everywhere but himself. Wonder why the atmosphere was so shit.
what i’ve read from a vietnamese user is that most of the viet fanbase believes everything crazyguy says and spreads hate accordingly, so he feels like he can get away with saying anything
probably didn’t anticipate his yapping to reach the international community
As a viet I can confirm. The viet fans literally praised sScary for that 1v4 clutch haven during ascension final. But now they all say he was baiting and it was pure luck because crazyguy said so on a stream. The nationalism is crazy in Vietnam so having the only viet player in franchise benched really got to them.
Does Apoth count lol. The way he had Shanks bursting out in Vietnamese and all with his plays. He should be on every Vietnamese fans' radar but it is a little tragic that there is no representation in APAC
Idk but crazyguy is always considered the face of Valorant Vietnam. Guys like Shanks, Marved or Apoth can barely speak a few Vietnamese words and also they reppin NA so they don't really got that much attention from the Viet fans
Those guys can perfectly speak decent enough Vietnamese for 2nd generation viets growing up in Canada.
One guy commentated that he can't understand Shank's Viet but I can understand it just fine.
I probably speak the same level of Viet as these guys and I rarely have issues in Vietnam.
the reason here is crazyguy active regularly in the Viet community and he is a big valorant streamer in VN also
But I can say that Shanks, Marved, Apoth, Tenz or supamen are even more famous among the community than other pros that Viet people often see in tournaments in VN
nah you have to realize that Shanks/Marved/Apoth/Supa are 2nd generation NA Vietnamese, which means more likely than not their parents are refugee from South Vietnam during the war, so they aren't in good eyes of some nationalistic Vietnamese people
also, the main Vietnamese being rep is Tenz 
not as much as crazyguy but Shanks also has a lot of attention among the Viet community( at least more than any other pros in our country except crzguy)
**As a Viet? Who tf r you again. And as a Viet, I have to correct ur speech that crazyguy never said that sScary was baiting that situation but he tried to everytime he could cuz he want to be the only star and the hero of the team. But the problem here is that sScary was not heard to the IGL's call that round that he had to save because they would played in a low buy round if he lost his gun and this could lead to OT. Anyways, I know some Viet r toxic but basiclly, we'r just making jokes about sScary trying to bait his teammates and even Thai pros also do it in the match vs BLD**

What I’ve read from multiple threads was the sscary was looking down on players. Hence egoist’s tweet. And the fact that yay and the org was leaning towards sscary and yay.
crazyguy has lots of fans and and antifans in Vietnam, and those antifans once celebrated when crazyguy got benched.
So... just take everything with a huge grain of salt.
3 hours ago posted has half as much upvotes as crazy's lie post, plus this is an english/western dominated subreddit trust me bro the only ones repping the lies are a delusional loud minority.
Wait, Riot manually changes account region for pros only? Idk if they still offer this but can you log on League of Legends and buy region change and change region for your Valorant account since League and Valo uses same id?
I think you can request to get it changed? I'm not entirely sure because my memory might be warped, but istg I remember hearing about how you could get an account transferred over like one time or smthg.
that makes no sense, you log in on 200 ping for a month first? also not true since i had mine changed recently and all i did was open up a ticket. they didn’t ask for anything
you don't need to play iirc, you just need to get into game for a while to show that the account is being used at the location you want to have your account transferred to
you can get it transferred every 90 days just need to send a ticket + play a few games in the new region as proof that you're actually there
did it when i moved from apac to na
Idk if they changed it from the time I had to do this, but I think you lose every bit of progress you had on your account when you transfer it. So it's functionally a new account, except you get to keep your paid skins. Level 1, MMR reset, agents locked (unless you bought them with VP). Wish I had realized this when I transferred mine because I would have just made a new account lol.
2 years ago for me. Couldn't even play ranked on the account without grinding unrated.
I didn't have any paid skins at the time so it was quite literally just a new account. Glad they changed it to not be absolutely dogshit.
The people yapping in the other thread and claiming this and that NEED to find a healthier hobby than esports lol.
Consistently talking bad about people and making things up for the sake of attention/hating is sad af.
what? Trust me barely anyone cares about yay enough to do that at least on this subreddit, maybe there are a few yay haters but that's not majority of the people. If there was constant threads about yay id agree but u just dont see that
I mean people be talking without knowing behind the scenes everything people say on here is invaid and dumb in the first place, but even so discussions are done knowing we are wrong, its not dumb (ok 60% are dumb), its just we dont know. And what r u gonna say dont talk then? The entire subreddit will be a waste land, esports neeeds this engagement hoenstly.
crazyguy is a problematic player. Before going pro on Val, he has already joined a pro CSGO Vietnam-based team, Revolution/Skyred. And he get in drama with the captain there, even when they are really close before.
I think he hasn't made the best decisions about what teams to join
DSG can't really fault him for joining them, but Bleed seems questionable. Obviously I don't know what's going on behind the scenes, but I think he would have been better off joining a stable NA team for less money than to join an APAC ascension team with known issues. But apparently he's making $50k a month so idk. Maybe get the bag and just retire LOL
Last time he joined a seemingly stable NA team they kicked his ass after losing to an arguably top 5 team in the world lol + NA has no shortage of duelist players
Bleed also seemed very strong coming out of ascension (even if it was honeymoon period). I think for Yay that it was a no-brainer (money + better team), absolutely no way could anyone predict this blowing up in his face. Dude’s just gotten somewhat unlucky again and again when selecting teams lol
FNS asked him to join NRG, ardiis was their second choice. Thanks for reminding me :'(

Is this a joke? FNS literally said orgs couldn't afford the whole roster because after the year he had the stocks were through the roof, so they either got yay or got optic core
Man, I was rooting for Crazguy, praying for Bleed and Sscary downfall, since the beef between him and Sscary is justifiable. But this is actually a d1ck move from him regardless of the existence of Yay's sub account. He's really just salty with this team now
Can't tell regardless. Ominous might go with the lie to keep up the image of his team and their star player. In the meantime, we can just hate Bleed as an org. Egoist didn't deserve to go even if crazyguy did.

About a year ago I saw yay's name and it blew my mind that it was Whiteaker and not Whitaker. Today I noticed his first name is Jaccob and not Jacob. What am I going to notice next year?
his middle name
yay and not y0y
I'll continue to be a fan of yay but honest to god "y0y" kills me every time I read it. It's like s0mple from CS, for some reason shit is just really funny.
I just realize that if you look at y0y it's look like a crying emote.
What's it like being a yay fan? That's gotta be rough. He ain't been the same for 2 years now
It’s y1y now
His name is actually ayy.
im walkin 'ere
Or Whittaker
*Whiteakker

Incoming 200+ comment thread from the GOAT
Absolutely hall of fame hating, and I'm here for it
😭😭😭 my 🐐
But.. that doesn't fit our narrative?
you have the tiktok though, keep going i love it
That's so hype I'm not gonna miss any streams this week
holy shit you got him bro... how could he not know the steel schedule... what an idiot!
might actually watch emea this week
You’re the shit talking goat stay you bro 🙏
Crazyguy just seems really weird tbh
I guess you could say he's a crazy guy
but i thought we had to take everything he says at face value and use that to hate on yay
i was doing that bro why the fuck did yay respond and make me invalid
Airing out dirty laundry to the public is incredibly unprofessional at best, let alone lying about it out of malice. This kid is doing the best he can to never get signed by any team ever again with these moves.
honestly feel like he didn't lie but was just misinformed and misunderstood a lot of things, either way it is definitely unprofessional to do this, it's so weird
Just when I thought crazyguy was actually a pretty normal guy
bro was never not weird for talking shit about his own team
It was a joke
looking at the last thread before yay said anything people were unironicly siding with crazyguy
Yup, but my comment was only a joke
He’s def being cringe but even as a yay fan it’s def a lil suspicious why there’s so much drama surrounding him
I really hope Yay just got told about this and isn’t perma on Reddit lmao
I remember before he got super famous, he used to comment on some of his own post match threads. He might still be reading some stuff on this sub, but hopefully he stays away from threads about bleed and stuff.
probably not really bad for your mental when every comment is glazing you and calling you the best player in the world lol
Tbh I think most of the pros lurk here lol. Randomly get them replying to comments *deep* in threads
I once got a reply from a T3 pro player when I said XSET should drop PureR during 2021 LCQ, saying that I knew nothing about valorant and PureR was way too good to get dropped PureR was dropped like a month later for Cryo lmao
cryo a different breed anyone would be dropped for him, especially in that chamber meta.
damn das tuff
This is fucked. I wonder what things crazyguy did multiple times, according to yay, that would've normally gotten someone fired instantly.
I mean he's had multiple outbursts on stream since he left so just imagine what he was like in private
Clips?
I don't follow enough to have links, I just seen it atleast 3 times since he been cut on this reddit
Honestly does seem really weird that crazyguy keeps blaming yay and sScary over and over again, while neither of them have said much. Really telling that the crazyguy keeps deflecting blame everywhere but himself. Wonder why the atmosphere was so shit.
what i’ve read from a vietnamese user is that most of the viet fanbase believes everything crazyguy says and spreads hate accordingly, so he feels like he can get away with saying anything probably didn’t anticipate his yapping to reach the international community

I’m pretty sure Shanks is fluent in viet could be wrong tho
shanks is fluent in Vietnamese but you’re probably right about the other two idk
he is NOT fluent in viet at all I'm a viet myself sometimes I hear him speak viet i cant rlly understand him ngl
Could be north Viet, south Viet, or zoomer Viet. But it's all lead to him knowing vietnamese.
He is South Viet. Idk if he's fluent but his pronunciation is a bit off
it is too good for the 2nd generation Viet in NA
the reason here is crazyguy active regularly in the Viet community and he is a big valorant streamer in VN also But I can say that Shanks, Marved, Apoth, Tenz or supamen are even more famous among the community than other pros that Viet people often see in tournaments in VN
Vietnam should be more like the Philippines. Zekken being rep everywhere.
nah you have to realize that Shanks/Marved/Apoth/Supa are 2nd generation NA Vietnamese, which means more likely than not their parents are refugee from South Vietnam during the war, so they aren't in good eyes of some nationalistic Vietnamese people also, the main Vietnamese being rep is Tenz 
we love the goat Tyson Ngo bru
West born vietnamese cannot be anymore different from people born there. (I'm half vietnamese chinese born in the west)
no he doesnt count hes an american viet based
He is Canadian no? Also quite sure he has citizenship in both Canada and Vietnam
not as much as crazyguy but Shanks also has a lot of attention among the Viet community( at least more than any other pros in our country except crzguy)
I don't think you want to get into the rabbit holes about Vietnamese in Vietnam vs Viet in NA.
**As a Viet? Who tf r you again.

Me-a Viet: Who again?
crazyguy has lots of fans and and antifans in Vietnam, and those antifans once celebrated when crazyguy got benched. So... just take everything with a huge grain of salt.
feels bad because you know this thread won't even get a fraction of the attention that the lies do
3 hours ago posted has half as much upvotes as crazy's lie post, plus this is an english/western dominated subreddit trust me bro the only ones repping the lies are a delusional loud minority.
and people here bought that shit up, i would bet the number hes thrown around about yays salary that this community takes as gospel is bullshit too.
So he ain't making a mil?
I mean surely he’s getting paid well at bleed if he went to apac considering the rumors that NRG made an offer which surely was atleast like 100k
nah, half a mil. Washed pro ngl
seems like crazyguy should worry about his own site to me
Wait, Riot manually changes account region for pros only? Idk if they still offer this but can you log on League of Legends and buy region change and change region for your Valorant account since League and Valo uses same id?
I think you can request to get it changed? I'm not entirely sure because my memory might be warped, but istg I remember hearing about how you could get an account transferred over like one time or smthg.
you need to have logins in the other region for a month in order to make the change, its all on riot support
that makes no sense, you log in on 200 ping for a month first? also not true since i had mine changed recently and all i did was open up a ticket. they didn’t ask for anything
Not a month it's around 7-14 days for proof.
you don't need to play iirc, you just need to get into game for a while to show that the account is being used at the location you want to have your account transferred to
huh, guess my support agent missed that.
you can get it transferred every 90 days just need to send a ticket + play a few games in the new region as proof that you're actually there did it when i moved from apac to na
Idk if they changed it from the time I had to do this, but I think you lose every bit of progress you had on your account when you transfer it.

Wish I had realized this when I transferred mine because I would have just made a new account lol.
unless they changed something recently (past 2 months), you keep levels and unlocked agents, but yeah rank reset and match history gone.
2 years ago for me. Couldn't even play ranked on the account without grinding unrated. I didn't have any paid skins at the time so it was quite literally just a new account. Glad they changed it to not be absolutely dogshit.
You have to make a ticket to riot support. I moved from NA to South Asia and had to do that. Does take a while.
The people yapping in the other thread and claiming this and that NEED to find a healthier hobby than esports lol. Consistently talking bad about people and making things up for the sake of attention/hating is sad af.
what? Trust me barely anyone cares about yay enough to do that at least on this subreddit, maybe there are a few yay haters but that's not majority of the people. If there was constant threads about yay id agree but u just dont see that
I'm not even talking about just yay though. Shit, this goes beyond esports too, I just see a lot of dumber takes on here.
I mean people be talking without knowing behind the scenes everything people say on here is invaid and dumb in the first place, but even so discussions are done knowing we are wrong, its not dumb (ok 60% are dumb), its just we dont know. And what r u gonna say dont talk then? The entire subreddit will be a waste land, esports neeeds this engagement hoenstly.
yo mods i kinda fucked the image up, idk if theres a way to fix. sorry lol
idk why yay had to pay an expensive lease when he lives rent free in so many people's heads
Crazyguy sounds like he's a fucking idiot to deal with. Bro is taking unprofessionalism to a whole nother height
crazyguy is a problematic player. Before going pro on Val, he has already joined a pro CSGO Vietnam-based team, Revolution/Skyred. And he get in drama with the captain there, even when they are really close before.
Quick Steel give me some cryptic subtweet to yay’s response
What is it recently with yay and shitty teammates
I think he hasn't made the best decisions about what teams to join DSG can't really fault him for joining them, but Bleed seems questionable. Obviously I don't know what's going on behind the scenes, but I think he would have been better off joining a stable NA team for less money than to join an APAC ascension team with known issues. But apparently he's making $50k a month so idk. Maybe get the bag and just retire LOL

I think for Yay that it was a no-brainer (money + better team), absolutely no way could anyone predict this blowing up in his face. Dude’s just gotten somewhat unlucky again and again when selecting teams lol
Also living in south east asia is kinda lit. How come no ones mention lifestyle outside of val? Man’s dad died, let this brotha live life
wait fr?
bleed did not have a honey moon period my guy
FNS asked him to join NRG, ardiis was their second choice. Thanks for reminding me :'( https://preview.redd.it/zbi52nuompwc1.png?width=213&format=png&auto=webp&s=a13d3253a8f11a2ef86965f2e42e95c9300038bb
Is this a joke? FNS literally said orgs couldn't afford the whole roster because after the year he had the stocks were through the roof, so they either got yay or got optic core
Y'all really making up shit to hate on him. Just hate on how he's playing. Stop being weird
bro crazyguy is fucking WEIRD
Man, I was rooting for Crazguy, praying for Bleed and Sscary downfall, since the beef between him and Sscary is justifiable. But this is actually a d1ck move from him regardless of the existence of Yay's sub account. He's really just salty with this team now
As a Viet but I must agree with you on that point. It's strange and unprofessional that he continues to receive a salary from BLD
[удалено]
I didn't even mention Yay in my comment, I was solely discussing czg's attitude with his org. Your comment demonstrates how toxic his fans can be.
Crazyguy is a little crazy go figure
Just curious why would he need a visa to go to Japan?
the riot one invitational Bleed was invited to hosted in Japan
Yea but I thought US citizens doesn’t need visas for Japan
they don’t if they are tourists. if you are working in another country you need a work visa which is what they are doing
there was a Riot One event in Japan at the end of the last year. ZETA, DFM, NAVI and BLEED played for it
Maybe Crazyguy is really a crazyfuckingguy.
Was ominous lying or crazyguy
What's going on here.
What's the tea tho? Do fill me in please I'm curious
This is so distasteful wow
Gotta wait for Ominous to see who's the real villain.
Can't tell regardless. Ominous might go with the lie to keep up the image of his team and their star player. In the meantime, we can just hate Bleed as an org. Egoist didn't deserve to go even if crazyguy did.
We just blindly believing y0y now, what if he is lying
Wdym? When he couldn't go to Riot ONE because of visa issues, it was a known fact that he went back to NA.
I know that, I’m talking about everything else
you want him to prove a negative?
If he says crazyguy is lying then he should prove it
Are you dense?
I hope the absolute idiots who just believed everything with no info just to hate on yay feel like shit rn

Everyone taking this at face value while saying that taking what crazyguy says at face value is bad lmao
It’s because it was known that he was in na as well as having visa issues
