Twitch streamer, Félix ‘xQc’ Lengyel, addressed his “competitive” behavior in recent broadcasts on the OfflineTV Rust server, where he was accused of being rude to other streamers and his fans followed up with some heavy messages.
The Canadian has been involved in a number of controversies in the recent past, including being banned from Twitch for sniping at Fall Guys during the GlitchCon 2020 Twitch Rivals event in November 2020.
After returning to the streaming site, his channel is back, with his audience enjoying the time he spent on Rust. Rust, for those who haven’t seen it, is a survival game that is in fashion in the streaming community. Thousands of viewers, for example, are tuned in to watch the action daily on the OfflineTV server itself.
With xQc getting his hands dirty on December 30, some think he crossed the line with comments – and he has since apologized for the way he was playing.
Rust is a multiplayer survival game for PC, where players must survive in the jungle with limited resources.
xQc exceeds the mark in Rust
In a tweet, he said: “The OTV Rust server is a lot of fun, that’s all I think about. My competitiveness overwhelmed me and I was rude to non-PVPers. Tomorrow we will do better and Team Rocket will take over. “
THE OTV RUST SERVER IS VERY FUN IT’S EVERYTHING I THINK ABOUT. MY COMPETITIVENESS SUPPLIED ME AND I WAS RUDE TO NON-PVPERS. TOMORROW IS GOING BETTER AND TEAM ROCKET WILL OVERCOME

In a clip, he was seen demanding that a smaller streamer – Ash_on_lol – “be useful for the first time and put some wood in the fireplace”. She has more than 268,000 followers on her channel and regularly collaborates with other OfflineTV players.
That comment from xQc didn’t go very well, as she replied, “Excuse me, you f ** king pr ** k, I’m trying to get your f ** king gun back, so don’t worry. ** t. Be kind at once, yes. ”
After this interaction, Ash revealed that he received death messages from xQc fans.
One told her to go and kill herself because of what happened in the game, and in response to the whole situation, several people in the chat asked for a petition for the xQc to be fully kicked from the OTV server.
Whether any action will be taken on that front or not is still unknown. No comments were made on the matter, although the shroud asked to be removed during a broadcast, adding to the pressure on a decision to be made.
The former professional Overwatch player is one of the biggest streamers on the market and will undoubtedly be contributing to the audience success of the Rust server, but has he been taking things too far lately? We’ll have to wait and see.
