Travis Gafford: real as fuck since before he was supporting the esports scene with his literal couch.

Travis is a GigaChad for being willing to speak out on these types of topics despite the " uncomfortability" it might cause for his usual audience. It will be a god damn shame if esports winter gets so bad that we lose journalists with integrity like Travis because there isn't enough money to support him.

Principles are only important when they're challenged Travis. Well done sir, it's easy to just 'go along' with it, especially when it's your job. So many people will ignore this and pretend it's not a thing, just for the cash. It takes a ton of guts to do this man. Hella respect.

Travis this is one of the best videos youâve ever made, not from like a quality or content reason but just another example of why Iâve supported you for the last 10+ years. Youâre so genuine in everything you do and youâre bringing issues like this to light to the greater community. Thank you Travis.

Your âline in the sandâ talk was profound, Travis. Great video.

Please note anyone saying But the US government. But the US government doesn't own and operate the LCS

Hell yeah Travis. Thanks for having a backbone and being a man of your principles. So much respect.

Wasn't exactly a fan of you before but I respect you 1000% for this, you have more moral integrity that 99% of the people in the scene.

This is what journalism looks like. This video is excellent example of what genuine beliefs and morals look like. Expressing opinions while leaving room and opportunity for others to express theirs. Supporting their decision to not support you. You rock dude.
Hit me up and letâs play some magic.

Sportswashing sucks. Appreciate your lack of coverage, and I won't be watching the "Esports World Cup".

Massive respect for this Travis!

Big props to you for both outlining why youâre upset and making a stand and acknowledging the gray areas - one of the best explanations of a public moral stance Iâve heard to date.
7 |
Travis, thank you for speaking up and standing for what you believe is right. Your moral rectitude is admirable.

Didn't watch the Qatar world cup, won't watch the Saudi cup either. I'd love to see leaks of the internal discussions at Riot about this, because many Riotters would be arrested just by stepping foot in Saudi Arabia
74 |
Hell yeah. Conviction is rare in this sphere of the internet so respect
22 |
Riot deserves being reminded of the Bjergsen bullshit. No idea how easy it is to enforce Riot licences in Saudi Arabia.
14 |
always respected you but now i do even more than ever
very happy to see you not only openly discussing this but also deciding not to cover this event
23 |
Great work. Genuinely. There aren't many people who will say "no" if it means losing out some cash.
Appreciate you calling out Riot as well - not enough people are talking about that.

One of the things I should have mentioned in the video, as I assume I'll see people rush to the comments to type this, is "keep the politics out of this." It's a frequent refrain. I don't always agree with that sentiment, but if you feel that way, then you and I are IN AGREEMENT ON THIS ISSUE. If you want to "keep politics out of esports" then you probably shouldn't want tournaments being put on by political groups and governments.
