William “Requiem” Hutchinson, one of the top Rocket League<\/a> players in the Oceanic region has been permanently banned from any and all Psyonix-operated events effective immediately for a death threat, his use of hate speech and racial slurs in a Discord chat.<\/p>\n

The log leaked by Eli “eli” C. in a tweet<\/a> came to Rocket League\/Psyonix Senior Community Manager, Devin Connors’ notice who stated<\/a> they were “looking into this.”<\/p>\n

This incident also involved another prolific OCE pro in multi-time regional champion Alex “Decka” Tsoutsouras who faces a two-season ban for his use of homophobic slurs.<\/p>\n

Four days later, the ruling<\/a> was made official by Rocket League Esports Manager Murty “Scheist” Shah over on the video game’s subreddit.<\/p>\n

“After a thorough investigation, we have determined that two players repeatedly engaged in harassment towards other players that directly violates the Code of Conduct”, the ruling read.<\/p>\n

Neither Decka nor Requiem played for their teams in yesterday’s OCE Regional #2, both being replaced by their subs in the Swiss Stage where Wildcard Gaming and Grogans were eliminated with 1-3 records.<\/p>\n
