Perkz Deletes X Account After Being Removed From G2

Former League of Legends player Luka “Perkz” Perković was removed from G2 Esports on November 5, while he was serving as the organization's head coach. The decision came after a controversial post Perkz published on social media on November 4. Perkz has now completely deleted his X account, but his Instagram, Twitch, and YouTube accounts remain active.

On November 4, Perkz published a long statement on X, totaling 2,676 words. In it, he described it as “the first and last honest post I've made in ten years.” The text covered his religious beliefs, his political views, abortion, and his relationship with former G2 CEO Carlos “ocelote” Rodríguez. The part that drew the most backlash was his comparison of abortion to murder. Arguing that life begins at fertilization, Perkz said, “I will never give up this view.”

Perkz denied claims that he supported Andrew and Tristan Tate. He also defended his loyalty to Rodríguez and said he did not support Russian President Vladimir Putin. Even so, the post triggered harsh criticism on social media. G2 CEO Alban Dechelotte said the statements did not align with the organization's stance and values. Dechelotte acknowledged that the post had upset many fans and apologized for it.
