s0m talks about the situation
The player expressed his indignation on social media and stated that he suffered the “swatting” at around 6:30 am, while his family was sleeping.
For whoever did this, you really are a horrible person. ‘Swatting’ is no joke and puts people’s lives at risk.
Swatted at 6:30AM while my whole family is sleeping, actually ridiculous.
To whoever did this you are genuinely a horrible person, swatting is not a joke and puts peoples lives at risk. Ill be back later for a normal stream, stay safe everyone
