I know this dude is big in the CSGO scene but haven't heard much about him. People seem to go to bat for him quite a bit but my god what a shithead.

What is a G??? Google pointed me to various g-spots, which I am sure is not what a G is.

Lol at that GG tweet. I'm a gamer and I wasn't smeared at all because I wasn't part of some shitheel misogynistic group.

Edit: Aspergers would have nothing to do with views like that.

Everyone involved in Esports seem like a terrible person

I don't follow them much, but there must be some people involved in Esports that aren't giant assholes, right?

Not really a surprise if you're in the CS:GO community; the guy is edgy for the sake of being so and doesn't have much of a filter when it comes to controversial opinions. For the most part people ignore him and let him prattle along in some flat in England with no heating or air conditioning. He doesn't really hold many desk positions these days so I doubt there any other credibility of his that you could tear down. Maybe kids still find him popular but I think he's reached the phase in his broadcasting career where most mature people know he's a clown.

Thorin does the best esports content, but is also a gigantic idiot. I thought everybody knew that.

Thorin has been like this for a long time, google Thorin Poland if you want some more examples. I don't know how people still hire him.

Esports is the gentrification of any competitive scene. We WILL get more shit like this in the future

I know some people at The Ringer and theyre lovely but their coverage is just budding at this point. I hope it takes off for them because they're the kind of personality we need

Really? Like have you met any soccer, baseball, football fan ? I won't deny esports have a few bad a apples but saying they have the worst fandom is insulting ... soccer fans have literally killed people but yeah esports have the worst fans lol

Hey don't put this on us. It didn't make me a wacko woman/minority hater.

I didn't mean it like that. I'm tired and didn't word it properly I guess; he just has a history of being a complete shithead but I don't really know how to convey what I was trying to say without making it sound like I'm blaming his condition. Sorry.

clearly he must have meant "G" as in "G-rotesque human being", im sure he just couldn't fit it in due to the 280 character limit

This dude been a piece of shit for a long while but somehow esports scenes tend to favor trash persons over decent ones.

Thorin was also the guy who ran interference for m0e during the recent homophobia controversy as well. Both are trash and bring the CSGO scene down.

I don't know if Thorin still gets mics at major CSGO events but his abrasive personality is one of the biggest reasons I stopped watching.

Yeah but if a sports commentator said this they would be (edit: probably) fired, this isn't some random esports fan, this "commentator of the year"

The most unintelligent person in esports history. His value is solely based on the fact that he's an agreeable person to people who strictly value being agreeable as a human trait with no regard for morality or intelligence. He's a fucking dunce.
