Popular gamer and Battlegrounds Mobile India pro player Tanmay 'Scout' Singh, recently, hosted a live stream on his LOCO account where he played BGMI's scrims with his squad. However, the 26-year-old gamer was shocked after knowing that the scrims were paid.
He got very furious after knowing about this and said that the players earn through their hard work in tournaments and by the brand deals but these scrims organisers scam them to play their paid matches. He also mentioned that these are college boys who are willing to make quick money.
"We work so hard to get money, but look at them. This is a scam. I believe these are the kids currently studying who have devised such a plan to earn money. They earn around a lakh rupees in just three days. Some people get a monthly salary of that amount. They just have to create rooms, I can even arrange for that."
I will inform other teams to stop playing as well: Scout
Scout also advised his teammate Sarang to stop playing these scrims and warned the room owners if they don't stop this, he will report it to Krafton during the live stream. He also mentioned that Tier-1 players will not be playing these scrims or tournaments as their salary is greater than the prize pool of these tournaments.
"Sarang, stop paying these people any money. They are making a business out of it. Instead of paying, they are charging us to play scrims which are not allowed by Krafton. I will inform other teams to stop playing as well. Room owners, stop doing this or I will make a complaint to Krafton."
Meanwhile, Sarang, recently, revealed that he will be joining Aditya and Scout to become a permanent member of Team Xpark. He also said that the fourth member will be Syed or Darklord.
"Myself, Aditya, and Scout are fixed. The fourth will be Syed or Darklord. We will be able to showcase good performances soon. The team is new and on top of that, the entire team is not even playing together. Aditya is sick. Once he starts playing regularly, you guys will get to see great outings from us. Moreover, it takes time to build synergy." according to GameXnews's YouTube Channel.
