Twitch streamer \u2018Adept\u2019 is the housemate of popular broadcaster and Overwatch pro Felix \u2018xQc\u2019 Lyengel, with her own audience of over 47,000 followers on Twitch. However, the streamer is now coming under fire, after nearly dropping a racial slur during a March 15 broadcast of battle royale title Apex Legends. \u201cRez me, you fuckin\u2019 *** \u2013 bitch,\u201d Adept began, quickly switching her choice of words after nearly saying what appeared to be a racial epithet. Furthermore, Adept\u2019s comments were directed toward a Bangalore player, one of two women of color in Apex\u2019s cast of characters. Adept has since deleted all VODs of the offending stream \u2013 although a mirror of the broadcast remains available online. The streamer has since garnered a slew of criticism, with some commenters comparing the incident to that of popular YouTuber Felix \u2018PewDiePie\u2019 Kjellberg\u2019s \u201cheated gamer moment\u201d from a 2017 broadcast.
