OpTic BobbyPoff under fire after belittling opponent streamers, calls them “irrelevant”

Twitch streamer and Warzone gamer Bobby &quot;OpTic BobbyPoff&quot; has come under fire of late after belittling his opponents during a Warzone match where his opponents were on the hunt for their in-game Champion's Contract, a.k.a. the Nuke contract.For those unaware, the Nuke contract allows players to detonate a Nuke that obliterates the entire lobby in one go. To procure a Nuke contract, a squad or player has to win five consecutive Warzone matches.In the viral clip, OpTic BobbyPoff and his teammates were on a winning run. However, they ran into a squad of creators, which included fellow Warzone player Ethan &quot;Stellar.&quot; Bobby was seen giving a vitriolic speech against them, resulting in subsequent criticism.Jake Lucky@JakeSuckyOpTic BobbyPoff is under fire today after a squad of streamers refused to back out on their Nuke contract while his squad was going for the Nuke and he had this to say201541OpTic BobbyPoff is under fire today after a squad of streamers refused to back out on their Nuke contract while his squad was going for the Nuke and he had this to say https://t.co/ahyCrZLrcSWhat did OpTic BobbyPoff say? Streamer addresses situation following backlashOpTic BobbyPoff found himself facing heat from the gaming community after a clip of him admonishing his opponents for wiping their squad off went viral. The clip has already been shared by Ethan Stellar and online news reporter Jake Lucky, which has drawn criticism.After being killed in-game, here's what he said in the clip:“They use RPKs and Fennecs, and that’s all they can use. They have no skill, no talent, and no entertainment value. We are literally doing a challenge, that’s why people are watching it.&quot;Continuing with his polemical attack, he said:&quot;Those guys are probably gonna be f**king irrelevant forever.&quot;He also added:&quot;My stream is probably going to get more views than he has ever had on his f**king channel.”His rant was quickly made public, resulting in the ensuing criticism. He has, however, responded to Ethan's tweet by replying:OpTic BobbyPoff@BobbyPoff@EthanStellar Stellar.. I’ve known you for 4 years since the blackout days. You could’ve easily dm’d me about this but posted a whole edit on the timeline instead. You were on another account, I never mentioned your name one time bc I didn’t know it was you. So how is this personal at all?5334@EthanStellar Stellar.. I’ve known you for 4 years since the blackout days. You could’ve easily dm’d me about this but posted a whole edit on the timeline instead.

So how is this personal at all?He also added:OpTic BobbyPoff@BobbyPoff@EthanStellar I’ll be the first to admit some of the stuff I said was over the line. Hour 13 of my stream going for a nuke using a pistol so the passion was flowing. That’s not an excuse for offending smaller streamers but the way this whole thing is framed as a personal attack is weird to me.416@EthanStellar I’ll be the first to admit some of the stuff I said was over the line. Hour 13 of my stream going for a nuke using a pistol so the passion was flowing. That’s not an excuse for offending smaller streamers but the way this whole thing is framed as a personal attack is weird to me.His initial response ended up provoking further objections. He eventually issued an apology on his stream. He said:&quot;There's no excuse for my actions. I said some pretty f**ked up sh*t. I said some horrible sh*t which is really unnecessary and not only that, I continue to talk about the fact of the matter for 10, 15 minutes, for long time, that's just a good look, especially when I influence a lot of people.&quot;Fans react to situationBobbyPoff's apology did not garner much rapport from the streaming community.
