Sexual misconduct and blackmail controversy
MattyG has been subject of controversy when it has been revealed that he was in a relationship with a 16-year old CaptainZack in 2017, when MattyG himself was nearing 20 years of age. The relationship was allegedly abusive on both sides.[1]
It was revealed in Salem's Twitlonger that MattyG threatened to expose Salem for providing alcohol to the underaged CaptainZack if Salem mentioned MattyG in any way regarding the controversies.
The allegations surrounding MattyG have since then been solved privately. MattyG was indefinitely banned from all events and his name was privately added to the Global Ban List, while he has cited no interest to return to the competitive scene in the future.
