Tyler ‘Trainwrecks’ Niknam was left to simmer on the second OfflineTV Rust server after being ambushed and killed by longtime Rust player Ser Winter.
The first OfflineTV Rust server, launched in late December 2021, was absolutely shocked by the controversy over the abundance of PvP. Players like xQc received more stick, requesting a move to a second server with a focus on interpretation.
With this new server destined to have less focus on PvP, players hoped that would mean the end of the intense drama. However, so far, this has not worked.
Some players continued to prioritize PvP, including Ser Winter. He sparked controversy after camping in a bush before running out and killing Trainwrecks. The serpentine was furious, with Ser Winter’s actions also rubbing other serpentines in the wrong way.
This rust incident made Trainwrecks absolutely furious. He falsely claimed that Ser Winter ‘bagged’ his corpse, called him a “fat-faced clown” and said he would “steal” Ser Winter’s girlfriend.
Train later accused people who defended Ser Winter of being biased towards the ‘minor ribbon’, and criticized Ser Winter as an ‘influence hunter’. “It is the policy of the big streamer for the small streamer,” he said. “People like when the little one wins or is right, I promise it was a camp in the bush xQckilling me and killing me, everyone would try to get their contraction banned and sent to prison.
“Nobody is arguing whether this idiot should kill me or not, but when you have professional players with 37,000 hours playing like mice for a little xQc c ** k clout, they are just p ** it looks pure and simple,” he added.
for all the stupid little kids who are past bedtime, no one is arguing whether this idiot should kill me or not, but when you have professional gamers with 37,000 hours playing like mice for a little bit of influence on the cock, they’re just pure sissies simple

But Ser Winter, who has just over 64,000 Twitch followers, defended his actions, claiming that he has been more “relaxed” on the server and reported having received his first death threat. He said, “This is what happens when you kill the wrong streamer in the right place on the pvp server.”
This incident drew a lot of criticism from other great content creators, with Nick ‘nmp’ Polom tweeting his disgust at the continued presence of PvP on the server.
“I will keep it at 100p,” he said. “You need to get these sweaty pvpers out of rust on this server, they will kill you. They are trying very hard to escape the depths of Twitch that are camping in the bush, killing people with less than 30 hours of play, etc.
Anyone who says shit like that is getting instantly blocked. I can’t answer all of you, it’s a lot of pain in my mind.
It is a private server configured for RPPVP with content creators.

Felix ‘xQc’ Lengyel, who was a big part of the PvP aspect of the first server, agreed with nmp’s comments. “REAL,” he said.
Whether this controversy will lead to a change in the way PvP is approached on the new Rust server remains to be seen, but there is currently a real divide between old Rust players and the new wave of casual streamers. OfflineTV will have a hard time finding a solution.
