Pretty sad seeing how happy that kid is and knowing he was senselessly murdered right after that camera cut away.

Just seems like such a nice kid. They say he was very humble, and would congratulate those who beat him. He was very good at Madden.
Here is a quote from him.
A tribute to him LINK
Here is a quote from him.

People [at school] I’ve never met will ask me to play a game. I’ve been getting recognized more often this year. It’s pretty cool, I guess… I’m really easy to get along with, I’m not a trouble maker. I’m always laughing and joking around. I’m just me, a cool dude. There’s really nowhere to go but up, honestly.

Not that it compares to the human tragedy but this incident will obviously not be good for esports or gamers in general.
I'm sure going forward all major esports events are going to have much tighter security.

Amazing that one screwed up person can do so much harm so quickly.
It really seems there are many people out there that can't handle any type of setbacks in life and it makes them kill innocent people.
dying at a video game tourney. Senseless.

I mean, any major gathering of people should have tight security.

Devastated. No Words. Surgery In The Morning. Thanks To All Who Reached Out.
His feed is super positive, with one tweet worrying if he will be able to play again (I don't know what the surgery is that might determine if he is able to play video games again or not).

I really don't understand why this wasn't standard procedure anyway.

Didn't he lose his thumb? Looks like it's a hand injury, at the least.
