  1. BeYN’s Allegations and Timeline of Events
    BeYN released a detailed statement venting his frustration regarding Flashback’s tenure and actions over the 2024–2026 seasons. The core grievances include:
    Repeated Roster Disruption (2024–2025): According to BeYN, Flashback made a total of three requests to step down or be sent to the academy/second team.
    Playing Through Medical Emergency: During Stage 1 of 2025, Flashback abruptly requested a demotion right in the middle of practice, leaving the main roster with no reserve players. As a result, BeYN had to fill in as an emergency substitute and play the Sentinel position, forcing him to postpone an appendectomy (appendicitis surgery) to keep the team afloat.
    Broken Promises: When Flashback returned for Stage 2 in 2025, he reportedly apologized to his teammates, acknowledging they didn't fully trust him, and promised it wouldn't happen again, vowing to "win Champions."
    The Sudden 2026 Retirement: Despite those promises, Flashback abruptly announced his retirement just two weeks before the 2026 VCT Kickoff roster lock deadline. This left KRX with only 10 days to scramble for a replacement after most other teams had already finished rebuilding, causing the roster to collapse.
  2. What pushed BeYN to go public was Flashback's behavior post-retirement, which BeYN described as nonchalant and deeply insensitive to the remaining players who are still dealing with the fallout.
    Streaming Activities: Flashback has been streaming regularly on SOOP, participating in casual content (including cross-dressing content and community events), and allegedly behaving as if nothing happened.
    Rumored Return: Rumors surfaced that Flashback is already testing the waters for a competitive return to the Tier 2 scene and looking into streamer contracts, less than five months after his "retirement."
    Mental Toll: BeYN expressed that the situation has left him feeling disillusioned with his career, severely hurting his ability to focus on the game and causing daily pain. He ended his message pleading with Flashback to stop his streaming activities out of respect.

  3. Flashback’s Response
    Following BeYN's post, Flashback issued a public apology via Twitter, taking accountability for his actions while explaining the mental burden he faced:
    Mental Weakness: Flashback admitted he had a "pathetic mentality" and was too weak to handle the high-pressure environment of a top-tier team, stating that the team was "too great" for someone like him.
    Self-Centered Decisions: He addressed the three roster dropouts, explaining that at the time, he genuinely believed someone else would fit the team better. However, he admitted he now realizes those actions were entirely self-centered.
    Apology to Team and Fans: He formally apologized to his former teammates for the emotional rifts and disruptions he caused, and apologized to the fans for failing to improve and ending his professional career on such an unworthy note.
