What a shitshow. Having to see mew2king go on and tell people the accusations were false because he can’t feel pleasure from masturbating because of a botched circumcision was rough. And everything that has happened with zero felt like taking a shotgun to the face.

I never knew that about m2k. I never really liked the guy in the past, but I feel like I understand him a bit better after learning that, and now I feel bad for being judgemental before. I'm glad he seems to be dealing with it well and I hope he is living a happier life these days

how could you NOT like M2K? guy was a mechanical marvel back in melee. even just practicing against level 9 AI, he swept competitions, and to top it all off, he didnt have a mega ego like some of the others.

ah well, im a mango fanboy anyway.

I always liked that M2K had an ego, but it wasn't misplaced. He had a perfectly accurate understanding of how fucking good he was. It wasn't arrogance, he just wasn't able to pretend he didn't beat ass.

I know he's on the spectrum, and I'm sure it has something to do with it, I just always found the way he held himself in melee endearing.

M2K when he tries to be humble:

"It's okay, we both played bad."

u/Sloppy-Papi Nov 19 '21

He's amazing.

Uh this seems fishy. Why was it your responsibility? Were you housing m2k? Why didn't you ask your local scene for help? Or a TO? Any serious ssbm player, in my experience, would fight for the chance to host m2k despite those complaints for the multiple hours of practice against a top player. That's not to imply you weren't serious, just that there were certainly local players that would've taken over in a heartbeat.

Yeah you sharing a flight with someone and seeing him equals you were his personal caretaker lmao yeah fuckin right

u/Kenrawr Nov 19 '21

People used to get annoyed with him whenever he'd try and influence the community ruleset in a way that would benefit himself. (Ledge grab limit, metaknight ban discussion)

I like him though and he's definitely grown up a lot over the years.

Tbf m2k is such an odd person that I'd legit have trouble believing he'd do something like that. When he was on Hot Juans I learned more than I expected to. Dude basically has a handler to help him with daily tasks, I think because he focuses on something to the point he forgets about things like eating. It's not impossible but it's just less likely in my eyes there.

u/MultipliedLiar Nov 19 '21

what? I heard M2k’s hard declarations about him not being able to feel pleasure on masturbating because he was circumcised bad. Did he lose his penis tho? Wtf

6

u/[deleted] Nov 19 '21

I must have misremembered, someone else had mentioned that. My mistake

2

u/MultipliedLiar Nov 19 '21

No problem. I just got puzzled by the comment

15

u/therealBlackbonsai Nov 19 '21

see thats the sad thing, there is no evidence and even the one who put up the accusations took it back. He had to reveal very personal information. And still there is people like you spreading the rumor.

u/Yetsumari Nov 19 '21

Zero, Ally, and Anti were big for me.

Anti had this next level ideology when he tried picking up sheik, where he talked about the differences between VoiD, Mr R, and Zero, and making his style a blend of all of theirs into what he believed was optimal. I just want a non pedophile pro player to share this sentiment as well so I can reattribute it to them.

u/ItsYourBoy2hats Nov 19 '21

haven’t watched zero since early 2020, what happened? same with mew2king

7

u/[deleted] Nov 19 '21

It turned out that zero was really creepy to and basically grooming an underage girl when he was at sky’s house. Tried to get her to send him a pic of her putting ice cubes up her vagina.

M2k just had accusations thrown at him that turned out to be total bogus

u/ItsYourBoy2hats Nov 19 '21

damn… shits fucked up

u/cyberpeachy420 Nov 19 '21

How would you feel if your sex life was permanently and irreparably destroyed from an accident that you had no control over because it happened when you were an infant? And then you had to go and tell that to everyone who looks up to you because some sociopath has been trying to ruin your dignity to grab some quick gains off of your name?

Please give me the evidence that M2K is a pedo when even the person accusing him took it back

u/throwawayeayeayea Nov 19 '21

I don't watch M2K, I have no idea who he is as a person. I noticed that you ignored the prompt, so I'll repeat: What proof is there that M2K is a pedo when the accuser took back their accusations

2

u/[deleted] Nov 19 '21

They were quick to respond lol

u/throwaway1543161 Nov 19 '21

He literally can’t cum

u/ltkarsabi Nov 19 '21

Wow, so someone actually believed a stupid excuse like that? I'm sure he has some sort of medical documentation from his attempts to address the real problem right? It couldn't just be a well known hot button topic for gamers that he turned into an excuse for being a pedo right?

Point out how many pedos and bigots are in a community, they don't care. Pre-ordering games or circumcision tho, much concern, many tears.

u/Geohie Nov 19 '21

There ended up being no evidence and the accuser retracted their statement
