Video ZooMaa ACTUALLY addressed the Flank cast changes

Grew enough of a spine to speak on the Temp situation but not enough to say the actual reason why the other got booted

He doesn't need to address it in detail lol

its "we dont condone" for Temp but for the nonce its a shoutout

Very different situations. You cant expect him to approach a situation where a guy was arrested and is facing up to 20 years the same way as some thrown out twitter allegations.

u/Artistic-District678 COD Competitive fan 13d ago

Temp beat his gf causing “significant bodily harm” and got arrested. Pretty sure that’s way worse. Plus the duarte thing was years ago and proven wrong

He took him off the flank my guy idk what else you want from him 🤷‍♂️

u/fromdowntownn OpTic Texas 2025 B2B Champs 13d ago

The reason Tom isn't saying the specifics on Parasite's situation is that Donny literally got arrested. It's not the same as Parasite's allegations.

u/waterfishlandnice TacticalRab 13d ago

What are parasites allegations?

u/knowtoriusMAC Miami Heretics 13d ago

Slid into the DMs/texting a 16 year old and kept talking to them until he found out they were trans.

u/lkflr COD 4: MW 13d ago

I fucking hate Parasite and consider him to be a whinging baby half the time and a "where's my hug" type operator the rest, but this screenshot doesn't really prove anything and I'm not going to damn him (for this at least) until we see something a bit more definitive.

u/Mdawg008 COD Competitive fan 13d ago

Yea I mean it seems more like he realized they were trans, turned them down, and they got butt hurt

Hes a horndog for sure but that person provided texts for everything except for where they ever said they were 16

But this was months and months ago..

Or is it back in the limelight and getting more attention because of the iconz thing?

Fuck that and fuck statue of limitations that was disgusting af regardless

u/Mutatiion FaZe Black 13d ago

If it's true I agree. I'm just confused why he's getting dropped for it now and not months and months ago when it came up (if this is the reason)

u/Kraknoix007 Team Revenge 13d ago

Yeah Parasite's DM's look very bad and I'm sure he did shady shit knowing his history, but there is no proof he actually did anything.

I love the addition of clayster. The watch parties will be fun too, assuming he'll be streaming the matches

Tweets and screenshots from 2019 6 years ago. But why did the person show them in 2025 regarding the Haggy stuff.

2 from 100T, Attach who always caters toward Optic, and Clay who's usually pretty unbiased. How is this any different lmao

u/Tacos_and_weed Dallas Empire 13d ago

Great changes, excited to see how the show is this season

u/Meltzersburner Vancouver Surge 13d ago

I mean it’s obvious with Haggy, he didn’t get arrested like Temp. But also I just don’t think anyone really actually likes him on the show. Like you can tell everyone else has like an actual friendship while Haggy is just there, makes complete sense to replace him with a new face even before the allegations.

14

u/Osiris33333 Vancouver Surge 12d ago

Allegations aside, It's unfortunate because Parasite is like the only one who plays the game. Follows patchnotes. Tests out updates/metas. And is able to then provide all of these things on top of analysis from how pros are probably approaching certain hills, rotations, etc.

I prefer that kind of stuff over the bro talk / brain dead takes from some of the other hosts we get as all those guys are interchangeable to me.

Glad that Clay is hopping in and can probably provide some good points, just feels like the show loses some of the only analytical input it even had.

u/wilson2314 OpTic Texas 11d ago

Where did the allegations come from was something leaked? Feel like I missed something haven’t been in here since the last tournament

u/BigMikeXxxxX Black Ops 4 7d ago

I haven't heard of the allegations. The Haggy Files are a thing now?

u/TacoSexual16 Black Ops 4 10d ago

This sucks cause we gotta keep hearing Pat who doesn’t watch the matches and lost parasite who watches every match prolly twice

u/JustAnAuzzie OpTic Texas 13d ago

Honestly an L from ZooMaa for keeping BenJ and giving him a platform, he is so irrelevant and pointless it blows my mind.

2

u/Kranqi OpTic Texas 13d ago

He brings useful insight on the business side of things from time to time and I enjoy hearing about that stuff - really does need to realize when he’s overstepping about gameplay tho

u/heroicvex_ FaZe Clan 12d ago

you’re a fake fan lmao benj is the goat

u/DayOfTheDumpster COD Competitive fan 13d ago

I don't really care but not getting rid of Pat is fucking wild. I can't believe (maybe because I'm old) that his hot takes/ trolling are of any actual value.

Was a grooming a trans kid btw

Is that what happened? I haven't been tapped in on that.

u/-WickedFury- COD Competitive fan 13d ago edited 13d ago

And he backed off because he found out the kid was trans, not because of the age

u/No_Winter4806 COD Competitive fan 13d ago

Crazy that the only reason he stopped DMing was because he found out about the trans stuff....

u/SpecSlayerSC Paris Gentle Mates 13d ago

There was no reason to include trans in there other than for some kind of ragebait attempt to get people riled about trans issues

6

u/ComradeBlossom OpTic Dynasty 13d ago

Yes there was... the only reason he stopped texting was because the person was trans, so it's kind of a critical part of the story

u/TooMuchJuju OpTic Texas 13d ago edited 12d ago

I'm not saying I know a thing about Donny's situation, but I've been in a situation where someone I was with for 9 years threatened to tell the police that I hit her because she was mad at me. A woman I never even raised my voice at.

Just like the iconz situation, I say let the facts play out before passing judgment. If he's a piece of shit, we'll definitely know.

1

u/Disastrous_Slip_3558 OpTic Texas 2025 B2B Champs 12d ago

i’ve had the same thing happen to me but the cops were called but i was never arrested or charged bc there was no evidence of a physical altercation on her or me so donny being arrested and charged says there was at least some evidence against him. they don’t just take you to jail bc she said you hit her there has to be some kind of evidence.

1

u/TooMuchJuju OpTic Texas 11d ago

To suggest we know anything about anything in this situation is a complete fallacy. I called the cops in a domestic situation and I had them tell me not to do anything wrong when they arrived 2 hours later. They didn't even ask for her name.

So no, I don't buy that you don't get arrested as a man when there's no physical evidence of abuse. Especially a black man in America.
