CN fans are comin for his ass for saying that he's a china hater? cant find the clip yet though

yo wtf they cooking his ass what did he do

what did he even do

Oh boy. Things like this are annoying when interpreted bad, because it’s also difficult to defend himself since they use a whole different internet thing there. I guess maybe it sounds worse when translated into mandarin without previous context about how some people in other countries speak

He said he hates China or he’s a China hater or something and it probably got translated and people thought he was being racist. And now people feel betrayed and angry I guess since he was also decently popular there I believe.

I cant find the clip in his vods but this reddit post says he said "I‘m a hater，I‘m a China hater”，then chose heretics over EDG

He didn't even say anything crazy i think lmaoo

He said china hater as in china doubter probably because he thinks china is a weaker valorant region than emea which is fair to say. He was picking between TH and EDG and voted TH. Chinese fans translated it wrong and misunderstood

Zekken is cooked, even if he tries to explain, they will just continue hating

cultured chinese fans moment poorly translating english and then attacking zekken with racist abuse when the chinese nationalism kicks in

Those are some really racist replies in there

GlitchyGoose [#11]

I think it probably got translated without any context, and people in China just see this guy saying I hate China and maybe they don’t know being a hater is a thing /half joke in the west so now they think he was just being racist

they are being racist just because they thought he was being racist. Now I just want to see their faces when they realize he isn't being racist

do chinese people even understand english, isnt twitch banned over there

I’ve seen so many similar situations lmao. I think you need to complete exclude the word China when you talk to be safe

Didn't watch the stream but it aounds like he was doing pickems and someone asked him why didn't you pick edg and probably he said that sarcastically

I agree but as another redditor has already commented that China has a different internet and their people do not know our internet slangs they might have thought he's hating on their country

I bet all those China fans didn’t even watch the video and just saw some picture and made their fucking opinion

why do chinese people think that they have perfect understanding of the english language and that they comprehend all nuances and double meanings lol

if someone said some shit to me in a different language i would never assume the worst, that is absolutely braindead

he couldve just said he was a CN doubter but instead he said hate which was a bad choice of wording. would anyone even get hate though if they said they were an EU hater or an NA hater?

everybody and their mother knows that CN ppl can be pretty sensitive e.g the whole GENG thing. THINK CN fans why would he say something "bad" so casually if he actually meant ill will, considering the impact it would have on him and his org? Wouldn't it make more sense if he actually meant something else here?

CN ppl are pretty sensitive to racist，I suggest everyone need to completely exclude the word China.

Monsteiur [#19]

they are being racist just because they thought he was being racist. Now I just want to see their faces when they realize he isn't being racist

CN ppl will not admit that they are wrong，and then they will keep heating zekken like GENG things

They do realise he’s only 19 right? like they are literally harassing a teenager

Not supporting it but it's definitely not the first time happening in eSports

TheAceGamer30 [#3]

what did he even do

nothing wrong

he's a sentinel he gets hate no matter what, free impressions
