Two of Asia’s finest DOTA players have gone viral for the wrong reasons after Kim “Gabbi” Santos of Blacklist Rivalry and Thai player Nuengnara “23Savage” Teeramahanon of Aurora were seen trading insults during a livestream.
During a pub match streamed by popular Filipino DOTA player Carlo “Kuku” Palad, Gabbi, playing as Lion, triggered his in-game opponent 23Savage when he sent the latter a tip — a form of in-game trash talk used in the popular mobile MOBA.
23Savage did not take it lightly. With Gabbi and his former teammate Kuku teamed up, the Thail DOTA player 23Savage, who was the first player to reach 12,000 and 13,000 MMR in DOTA history, unleashed a series of insults at Gabbi.
“Nice tip r*tard ugly face. You are super ugly. At least I was not born poor. My family has a life unlike yours. You ugly st*pid b*tch mannerless creature,” 23Savage typed in a series of angry chats during the match.
Gabbi, for his part, fanned the flames even more, seemingly looking for more reactions from 23Savage.
“Monkey. You need a nose job. Cry bitter b*tch,” Gabbi said.
