The opening days of CWL Finals has been a wild one, with tournament favorites such as OpTic Gaming and 100 Thieves eliminated on day two. However, some fans of the remaining teams in the tournament seemed to get a bit too excited seeing the likes of OpTic and 100 Thieves struggle, prompting Clayster to post about the \u201ctoxic fans\u201d at the event, and online. After becoming aware of some eU fans being toxic towards other teams, Clayster quickly responded expressing to his fans to show a little more class towards some of the players who provide entertainment for the fans. The Call of Duty veteran stated that he didn\u2019t want any viewers who were toxic to other teams as eUnited fans and called for fans to have more respect, \u201cWin and lose with class y\u2019all, no need to kick others while they\u2019re down.\u201d Much easier for me to say but any eU fans being toxic to other teams, we don\u2019t want you as fans. Win and lose with class y\u2019all, no need to kick others while they\u2019re down. \u2014 eU Clayster (@Clayster) July 20, 2019 The 2015 World Championship MVP followed up by explaining how much professional CoD players invest into competing for fans at the CWL events, \u201cY\u2019all really don\u2019t understand how much passion and energy all of us pros put into this. It\u2019s our life, our validation and our success. He also called for competitive Call of Duty fans not to generalize or blame other fans, claiming that there will always be a minority of \u201ctoxic assholes\u201d who follow the esport. \u201cThere\u2019s always going to be toxic assholes, even if they\u2019re in the minority\u201d Clayster explained, adding, \u201cwe\u2019re not some faceless professional athletes, we personally handle our social media.\u201d And really, don\u2019t try and generalize or \u201cwhatabout\u201d other fans. There\u2019s always going to be toxic assholes, even if they\u2019re in the minority. We\u2019re not some faceless professional athletes, we personally handle our social media, we usually read most everything. Don\u2019t push us away :\/ \u2014 eU Clayster (@Clayster) July 21, 2019 Clayster finished by admitting some of his own mistakes such as getting caught up in the hype and being toxic himself in the past, expressing, \u201cI\u2019ve been toxic, i\u2019m sure there will be toxic moments in the future. All you can do is acknowledge mistakes and try to build and grow from them.\u201d Not saying anyone is perfect too. I\u2019ve been toxic, I\u2019m sure there will be toxic moments in the future. All you can do is acknowledge mistakes and try to build and grow from them. It\u2019s all about -right now-, don\u2019t let past behavior dictate your life. \u2014 eU Clayster (@Clayster) July 21, 2019 Although Clayster has had his share of controversial moments in the past many fans resonated with the words of the veteran ahead of the final day of the CWL Finals. He and eUnited are set to compete in the winner\u2019s bracket finals against FaZe Clan which already guarantees them a Top 3 finish at the CWL Finals regardless of the result. As of July 21, it has been over 1400 days since Clayster last found himself raising a major event trophy at Advanced Warfare Season 3 Playoffs. Although the eUnited star now finds himself with a perfect opportunity to break that streak as he takes on his former organization FaZe Clan in the Winner\u2019s Finals later on July 21.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>eUnited\u2019s Clayster hits out at \u2018toxic\u2019 fans at CWL Finals after OpTic and 100T exit Professional Call of Duty player James \u2018Clayster\u2019 Eubanks has hit out at fans, even of his own team, who were apparently being toxic at the CWL Finals in Miami.
