Update January 18, 04:15 EST \/ 09:15 GMT BobbyPoff has formally apologized for his comments. In his January 17 livestream, the streamer said he \u201ctook it way too far\u201d and shouldn\u2019t have criticized the streamers in the way that he did. \u201cA lot of you guys know there\u2019s a clip going around online,\u201d he said, \u201cOf me talking down on smaller streamers\u2026 There\u2019s no excuse for my actions. I said some pretty f**ked up sh*t. I said some horrible sh*t, which was really unnecessary.\u201d He described it as \u201cnot a good look\u201d and concluded: \u201cI\u2019m really sorry for what I said.\u201d The original article is as follows. Chasing down nukes dominates the current Warzone 2 streaming landscape. Squads need to win five consecutive matches and then complete the Champions Quest to accomplish the elusive feat. Content creators have made it their mission to secure as many nukes as possible. Nadeshot dedicated nine hours on stream hunting one, and a game crash caused him to go on an epic rant. Activision indefinitely delayed the release of stat tracking in WZ2, so grinding for nukes filled a much-needed void. Streamers, such as BobbyPoff, who successfully detonated a nuke without firing any bullets, have taken on nuke-related challenges to spice up the trend. Bobby called out Stellar for killing him while completing a challenge, and the confrontation detonated a different type of bomb. OpTic BobbyPoff blasts Ethan Stellar on Warzone 2 BobbyPoff was on a winning streak, and his team ran into another streamer group chasing a nuke as well. Bobby was attempting a pistol-only nuke challenge, and his team snapped over getting killed by a team not going for a challenge. \u201cThey use RPKs and Fennecs, and that\u2019s all they can use. They have no skill, no talent, and no entertainment value. We are literally doing a challenge, that\u2019s why people are watching it. Those guys are probably going to be fu**ing irrelevant forever.\u201d Bobby continued his rant, stating, \u201cmy stream is probably going to get more views than he has ever had on his fu**ing channel.\u201d Stellar posted the clip and responded, \u201cno need to make it personal, we\u2019re all just grinding our own content.\u201d Poff issued an initial response and then commented again, \u201cI\u2019ll be the first to admit some of the stuff I said was over the line. Hour 13 of my stream going for a nuke using a pistol, so the passion was flowing. That\u2019s not an excuse for offending smaller streamers, but the way this whole thing is framed as a personal attack is weird to me.\u201d Warzone 2 community members offered words of encouragement to Stellar after the ordeal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OpTic BobbyPoff responds to backlash for mocking streamer killing him in Warzone 2 Twitter: BobbyPoffWarzone 2 streamer OpTic BobbyPoff has apologized after a clip of him mocking smaller streamers for ruining their nuke attempts received considerable backlash from the CoD community.
