Tectone Has Resigned from OTK

Key Takeaways

  • Tectone leaves OTK due to contract expiration, not due to recent abuse allegations.
  • Tectone chose not to renew his contract due to the pressure he felt over how his trolling and provocative behavior might negatively affect others within the group.
  • OTK faces controversies as streamers depart, face legal issues, and new faces join.

As a longtime fan of Tectone and his entertaining streams, I find myself intrigued by his recent decision to part ways with One True King (OTK). While the allegations against him were certainly shocking and raised eyebrows, it’s refreshing to know that they did not play a role in this departure. Instead, Tectone chose to prioritize his personal growth and eliminate what he perceived as a “weakness” – his trolling behavior that might have negatively impacted others within the group.

Twitch broadcaster Tectone has formally declared his departure from One True King (OTK), marking the end of his tenure with the well-known content production group. Boasting a fanbase of around 970,000 on Twitch, Tectone is highly esteemed for his streaming sessions that showcase games like Genshin Impact, Honkai: Star Rail, and Arknights, as well as his interactive Just Chatting segments.

On November 20th, Twitch streamer Tectone became embroiled in controversy when Pinkchyu, his former partner, posted a series of tweets implying abuse without directly naming him. This led to widespread speculation. In reaction, Tectone vehemently denied all the accusations, labeling them as entirely false and fabricated. He highlighted that he had saved evidence such as text messages and videos to prove his innocence and was ready to collaborate with any legal investigation. Furthermore, Tectone gave a two-week deadline for an apology and retraction, threatening legal action against both Pinkchyu and anyone disseminating what he termed “lies without regard for the truth.

In the midst of the ongoing dispute, Tectone’s profile was taken down from the OTK website, causing speculation that it was linked to the accusations. However, during a recent live broadcast, Tectone made it clear that his departure from Emiru’s co-owned OTK had nothing to do with the allegations. Instead, he revealed that his decision to part ways with the organization stemmed from the expiration of his contract on November 1, 2024, which signaled the end of a three-year stint. Tectone opted not to renew his contract because he felt overwhelmed by the pressure of his trolling and controversial actions potentially harming others within the group. He referred to this predicament as a “weakness” he wished to eliminate.

Another Popular Streamer Leaves OTK

Although departing, Twitch personality Tectone voiced his backing for OTK members, acknowledging their recent endeavors to improve their situation. Looking back at being a common target for jokes during his time there, he joked, “They’ll need to find a new target now. I wish them luck!” It’s noteworthy that last month, streamer Asmongold parted ways with OTK after receiving heavy criticism over his comments concerning the Palestine conflict.

As an avid follower, I can’t help but notice that One True King is no stranger to onboarding fresh talent or seeing streamers depart willingly. Yet, it seems the organization often finds itself entangled in disputes, with the previous year being exceptionally turbulent. Incidents such as BruceDropEmOff accusing the network of racial abuse after his departure, and Twitch streamer Adriana Lee filing a defamation lawsuit against OTK last year, underscore the hurdles the group has had to overcome in maintaining its public standing.
