'Overwatch' League makes an example out of pro, suspends him for homophobic insult

Two weeks into the Overwatch League, one pro player has already been suspended and fined for throwing a homophobic insult at an openly gay opponent.

Felix “xQc” Lengyel of the Dallas Fuel was suspended by the Overwatch League and his own team Friday after insulting Houston Outlaws player Austin “Muma” Wilmot during a personal live stream on Twitch. The league’s suspension is a clear warning to other players to stay professional and not be hateful or else they’ll risk losing out on vital time playing with their teams.
