Kentucky Fried Chicken paved their way into the gaming world in August 2018 when they created their KFCGaming Twitter handle to serve a \u201cFinger Clickin\u2019 Good\u201d portion of memes. The unfortunate recipient of the clapback was Mark \u2018MarkyB\u2019 Bryceland, Head Coach of Splyce\u2019s Call of Duty squad, when he asked for a Christmas present from the worldwide distributor of chicken. Tender as the moment was, it\u2019s a great example of companies giving something back to the community that isn\u2019t cringe-inducing. Splyce competed in the CWL Las Vegas Open and had a good run until they met with OpTic Gaming in the Winners Final. Splyce took a 2-1 lead against the Greenwall and were up 247-205 on Hardpoint, just to give up the advantage, eventually losing the series 2-3 against OpTic. On his way back to Glasgow, MarkyB sent KFCGaming a simple request, to which the Twitter account seemingly obliged but threw in a side of sass to complete the order. \u201cWe\u2019ll get a chicken cheque right out to you,\u201d KFCGaming tweeted. \u201cMake sure you don\u2019t throw that away as well\u2026\u2026.\u201d We&#8217;ll get a chicken cheque right out to you!

The moment was a crisp reminder for esports figures and the overall gaming community that any interaction has potential for an 11 herbs and spices-covered lashing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>KFC Gaming hilariously roasts Splyce\u2019s coach for \u201cthrowing away\u201d huge lead to OpTic Gaming at CWL Vegas KFCGaming \/ via GfinityBrands trying to encroach into the gaming community typically have a hard time adjusting to the delicate candor between hostility and antics in the scene, but there are some moments when a company\u2019s joke clicks [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-28290","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28290","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=28290"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28290\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=28290"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=28290"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=28290"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
