However, he decided to speak out about the issue, revealing that he was initially confirmed to be a part of the squad:"Two months ago hJune (fellow streamer) hit me up to play in this round of Twitch Rivals, which I agreed to. After assembling the rest of the team It was sent to everybody else a few weeks ago for approval."He went on to explain that earlier today, the organizers and developers had a meeting where they came to a conclusion to remove him from the event to ensure that each team has a balance. He wrote:"Although my name has been in that roster since the start, analyzed and okayed by the majority of the Captains throughout multiple meetings, it was randomly decided in today's meeting that I should be removed from the event."Furthermore, he revealed that he was denied the opportunity to participate even if he were to be swapped with another team member (a weaker player joining his team) to maintain the balance:"When offered that I get switched with someone from another team who has less experience in Rust so I could at least play in the event, it was denied."The streamer expressed that the situation felt questionable and lacking in professionalism. He mentioned that there are "parties" who do not want him to participate in the Rust event to maintain balance. He stated:"I've realized it just isn't worth my time. Clearly there are parties in the event that do not want me to be there. Not personally, but just so the game is balanced in their opinions."In conclusion, he announced that he will not be participating in any future Twitch Rivals events:"I will not be participating in this or any future Twitch Rival events. As even if I were to play in it now or in the future, I would not feel wanted."Here's what the community saidHis Twitlonger received many sympathetic messages from both participants and fans.
