Mang0 gets banned on Twitch days after drunkenly harassing female streamers live at Beerio Kart 2025

Smash Bros legend Mang0 faces severe consequences after a drunken incident at Ludwig's Beerio Kart event, where he harassed female streamers. This led to a Twitch ban, Cloud9 dropping him, and exclusion from Super Nova. Mang0 has acknowledged his behavior, attributing it to alcohol, and committed to rehabilitation, signaling a turning point for the Melee community's tolerance.

Smash Bros legend Joseph "Mang0" Marquez is facing the fallout after a wild night at Ludwig’s Beerio Kart event. Known for his iconic Melee gameplay and chaotic charm, Mang0’s recent behavior, drunkenly harassing streamers at the event, has landed him in serious hot water. Days later, he’s been banned from Twitch, dropped by C9, and blocked from major tournaments. The community's response? A mix of disappointment, concern, and tough love.

What Actually Happened?

On June 21, Mang0 showed up to Ludwig’s Beerio Kart World Cup, a drinking game twist on Mario Kart, where players had to finish their drinks during the race. What was supposed to be lighthearted chaos quickly turned sour. Mang0, heavily intoxicated, reportedly harassed several female streamers, most notably ExtraEmily, during the livestreamed event. The fallout? Swift. And brutal.

Banned from Twitch… Again

On June 25, Mang0’s Twitch channel was officially suspended. Anyone visiting his page now sees the usual:
  • “This channel is temporarily unavailable due to a violation of Twitch’s Community Guidelines.”
It’s unclear how long the ban will last, but given Twitch’s strict policies on harassment and self-destructive behavior, even if done “for entertainment”, this one might not be short.Notably, this isn’t Mang0’s first Twitch ban. Back in 2021, he was briefly suspended for passing out drunk live on stream.
The red flags have been waving for a while.

Dropped by Cloud9 and Barred from Super Nova

Before the Twitch ban even landed, Cloud9—the esports org Mang0’s been with for years—cut ties with him. Then came the bombshell from Super Nova (previously Super Smash Con): Mang0’s out. He won’t be defending his championship titles in singles or doubles this year.In a statement, the tournament organizers said:
  • “The safety and respect of our attendees is of utmost importance to us.”
Safe to say: the Melee scene is drawing a hard line.

Mang0’s Response: Rehab and Accountability

Facing massive backlash, Mang0 took to X (formerly Twitter) to own up. Here’s what he said:
  • “After reflecting on the worst moments of my life, I see a pattern: alcohol has always been involved,” he wrote. “I promise I’m gonna beat this and show you that I can be a greater man without the influence of alcohol.”
He also said he fully supports any future bans or consequences, adding that he's always wanted what's best for the Melee community.

What’s Next for Mang0?

No word yet on how long Mang0’s Twitch ban will last—or if it’ll become permanent. But one thing’s clear: the community is done turning a blind eye. The Smash community might be known for its memes and chaos, but it’s also growing up. And it’s holding its legends accountable.
