Kurt lashes out at \u201cincompetent\u201d EA Sports after permanent FIFA ban EA SportsKurt \u2018Kurt0411\u2019 Fenech didn\u2019t hold back in his latest assault against EA Sports, suggesting the FIFA franchise publishers were \u201cincompetent\u201d after the new revelation he had been slapped with a permanent ban from all EA titles. After a series of battles between the fallen FIFA star, and franchise publishers EA Sports, the gaming giant has made a final decision to ban Kurt from accessing his EA account, as well as any titles associated with the company. EA stated in a statement released on Twitter on February 24 that the company would \u201cnot tolerate threatening behavior\u201d from Kurt, and suggested the 25-year-old pro had \u201ccrossed a line of decency into very personal attacks.\u201d \u201cToday Kurt0411\u2019s EA account will be banned from playing our games, and accessing our services, due to these serious and repeated violations,\u201d the company\u2019s official statement read. \u201cWe build games and communities for players to have fun [and] creating a safe experience for everyone without fear of harassment or abuse is a vital part of that\u2026when feedback crosses the line to threatening, personal attacks, we will take action to move it out of our communities.\u201d An Important message regarding FIFA player Kurt0411. pic.twitter.com\/RcHu1hMCup \u2014 Electronic Arts (@EA) February 24, 2020 Soon after the release was posted on EA\u2019s Twitter account, Kurt replied asking the company to \u201cgive [him] examples\u201d of when the alleged violations had occurred, and what evidence they had of him \u201cthreatening [EA\u2019s] incompetent employees.\u201d The FIFA personality then took to his own account, sharing images of his disabled account, and the email from EA\u2019s customer support alerting him of the permanent ban. Needless to say, he wasn\u2019t too kind to the gaming giant either. \u201cIncredible stuff honestly\u2026 banning me from their esports events wasn\u2019t enough, trying to get my Twitch and YouTube channels banned wasn\u2019t enough. Now they shut down my 10-year plus FUT Founder account. No words,\u201d he said.

He also added he believed he had \u201cnever said anything [he] shouldn\u2019t have,\u201d despite the FIFA publishers making claims to the contrary. \u201cThis is just deeper than anyone thinks. They didn\u2019t want me competing at events \u2018cause they were scared I\u2019d win them, now I\u2019m the second-biggest streamer of their game and they\u2019re scared I\u2019ll overtake their golden boy,\u201d he said, likely referring to fellow FIFA star Edwin \u2018Castro1021\u2019 Castro. https:\/\/twitter.com\/Kurt0411Fifa\/status\/1232055380064243712?s=20 It looks like Kurt\u2019s high-profile story, and his war against EA, is far from over too. Hours after EA\u2019s official statement, Daniel \u2018KEEMSTAR\u2018 Keem teased an upcoming documentary series telling the story of the fallen FIFA star. \u201cJust got off the phone with Kurt, \u2018the man EA Sports wants to disappear\u2019,\u201d the Drama Alert host revealed on Twitter. \u201cDocumentary deal done,\u201d he added, confirming some kind of video story will soon be on the way. While Kurt may be waging the most high-profile personal battle with EA, he\u2019s not the only star to have put the publishers in his sights this week either\u2014after reaching the Champions Cup finals in Paris, Fnatic\u2019s Tekkz slammed this year\u2019s FIFA release. The top-level pro, who eventually finished runner-up in the Xbox bracket to Msdossary after a 5\u20134 epic, suggested \u201cno one likes playing\u201d the series this year, and dubbed the 2020 release the \u201cmost unrewarding\u201d FIFA title yet. While EA brought the full force of the ban hammer down on Kurt, it looks like Tekkz got away scot-free. Considering the publisher\u2019s permanent actions against Kurt and his views, however, who knows when the next pro may speak up again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
