Crond6 Midlaner “Aergo” embroiled in fresh controversy after posting vlog featuring dead League Account.

Future of Crond6 gaming house in doubt.

It’s no secret that things aren’t always rosy in the Crond6 house, however, rising levels of friction between members of the Esports group fueled by a provocative vlog posted by controversial member “Aergo”, threaten to tear the team apart before the upcoming regional event.

In preparation for the new season of competition, Crond6 members had come together for an intensive boot camp in order to hone their skills and build a sense of team comradery. However, sources close to the house have revealed that these plans hit an early stumbling block, when the League account of Crond6 member Valarsis, also known as LTV, became stuck at a Bronze 5 level following the new season’s placement matches, preventing the Crond6 squad from playing ranked team matches, which had been the intended method of practice, due to the large disparity in ranking.

Speaking to Hexix® magazine online, Valarsis asserted that the unfortunate circumstances surrounding his rank were caused by a streak of “Extremely bad luck with matchmaking” and expected to return to his rank of last season within a few days, perhaps with the help of his team-mates knowledge of Elo-Boosting.  

Rather than responding in the manner which would be expected from a member of an elite sporting organisation “Aergo” took the misfortune of his team-mate and attempted to leverage it for views on his YouTube channel.

In the now deleted video, Aergo stumbled across the profile page of the LTV account which had been left open while Valarsis searched for Zooper-Doopers in the team fridge. Initially feigning shock at the discovery, Aergo proceeded to joke, laugh, and mock the unfortunate account, before plugging his merchandise consisting of a range of vape juice and fidget spinners, and finally linking viewers to his video game guides, claiming they provided “all the tips to avoid becoming a scrub like LTV.”    

The harsh and inconsiderate approach taken by Aergo in the video is made even more inexcusable when you consider that the majority of his fan base, known as the “AerGang” consist of highly impressionable teenagers and children. This kind of Toxicity being promoted openly on a popular esports figures accounts can only have negative effects on toxicity levels in the community at large, let alone the mental toll this type of bullying can have on the individual. 

Long time Crond6 Rivals Shadowstep182 and C4rrion were quick to lambaste Aergo on their social media, with these scathing tweets released shortly after the video went live.

Smite RA main, Rak1ng, another player with whom Aergo has had numerous run-ins, added the following regarding Aergo’s claim that he had not intended to find the account while filming.

These events have only added to speculation that a gaming house is no longer a viable option for the beleaguered team, following Hexix’s much publicised transfer to a separate Crond6 office initially located in Canberra, now based internationally. 

My sources also allege that Crond6 Veteran Lazruis recently went on an international trip to escape the antics of Aergo, with Crond6 Osu representative Tzunami currently being out of the country at the time of this article. P00nH0und was approached for comment but declined to add to the narrative, only mentioning that he had turned to listening to constant audio streams ranging from 400-852 HZ in order to drown out the deranged voices living in the crond6 house had imparted on his conscious.  

  

While Crond6 have not made any official statement regarding this controversy, I for one would not be surprised to see the once great Esports empire crumble even further before things start to get any better.
