"Get ready to learn Valorant buddy" — Fans react as OhnePixel gets blocked by Counter Strike's official X account

Counter-Strike 2 content creator Mark "OhnePixel" has been blocked by the game's official X account, which he found out about during a stream on August 1, 2024. The streamer was left astonished when he tried to open the @CounterStrike account and was met with a message stating that the account was now inaccessible to him.

Soon after, OhnePixel put up a post on X showcasing the same message. Many users on the platform have since speculated about the reason that got him blocked. Some believe the content creator's recent interest in other games like Valorant and League of Legends could have played a role.

X user @OsamaGraphics advised OhnePixel to prepare himself for playing Valorant after being blocked by @CounterStrike:

"Get ready to learn Valorant buddy."

@sn1kx00 commented that OhnePixel's ban could have been due to him ignoring Counter Strike and covering other games in his livestreams:

"All you played for the past few days was league,elden ring and valo. What were you expecting? And now you get happy for riot buddy and buy skins. It was down time for cs and you too left her and shifted to valo. You help her in bad times she shows you good times @ohnePixel."

@banana_superho believes that OhnePixel's criticisms against Valve and favorable comments directed at Riot Games may have invited the move from Counter Strike's official handle:

"Well you did publicly said that riot is way friendly than valve in the way they connect with streamers."

@Ayaan362 advised OhnePixel to invest his time in building a Twitch DJ Career now that he's been blocked by the page:

"Time to start that twitch DJ career buddy."

@SnkyGames stated that the streamer could not be unfaithful to Counter Strike with other competitive shooter titles:

"No one cheats on counter-strike with other competitive games."

@mKaCS_ believes the content creator's recent comments critiquing Counter-Strike pro Justin "jks" might have been what got him blocked:

"That’s what you get for hating on jks!!"

OhnePixel can often be seen making critical comments regarding Justin "jks." A recent instance involved him stating that he was "a little bit happy" after finding out that G2 Esports had parted ways with the player.

In a later stream, he also could be seen expressing his dissatisfaction during a livestream upon learning that jks had become a part of Team Liquid, another CS professional team.
