I really want to win," Kingsman265 told his teammates at one point. "I need money for college, I need money for everything, and I want to try my hardest to get the right composition." As the teammates argued against Kingsman265 suggestions, the streamer stopped practicing with them and went out to q ueue for ranked matches on his own."
The Deadpool Creator Cup took place January 18 as a $40,000 Marvel Rivals influencer tournament featuring 48 creators. First-place prize split was about $3,000 per player from an $18,000 winner pool. Kingsman265 pushed aggressively for team-composition changes during practice, citing personal financial need and a desire to win. He urged teammate zazzastack to swap a sniper and suggested a triple-support composition with three healers. Teammates resisted the changes and argued, after which Kingsman stopped practicing and queued for ranked matches alone. Tournament host BasimZB reviewed clips and VODs and removed Kingsman, citing respect and tournament rules.
