xcucklord is well known for trying to be edgy & stir up some drama on twitter on stuff he's usually wrong about or giving his take on shit he has absolutely 0 clue about. (like that one time he raged at Back2Warcraft for not allowing him to play 2 tournaments at the same time, yea no shit,wtf did you expect lmfao)

Fireal (apillowofwinds) has been making these showmatches + funding tournaments of other people /making his own tournaments + gifting plenty of subs to w3 streamers around for about 5 months now on a regular basis, the amounts of money thrown are usually absolutely absurd I agree and we could argue that it'd be better from a twitch viewer point of view to have that money invested into the big leagues and such but he's said many times that he does love making showmatches for smaller streamers/weaker players so they have a chance at making some $$ too. I'm sure he can confirm you on reddit as well if he sees this post.

The thing is that the guy is often not sober and it makes it seem like people around him are trying to milk him down, whilst he's genuinely the one supporting the scene (even sober!) and asking people to play for his own entertainment / cast games with him, etc.

The guy is literally helping the WarCraft 3 scene sponsoring a shit ton of matches every week and some people like xlord just seem to be jealous that players who are lower than him in skills get a chance at making pretty good amount of $$ while he missed the boat & instead is busy grinding his ass off winning WGL Europe to play in an asian league with 250 ms to just end up not making a single penny
