100 Thieves CEO NadeShot has received a massive shadow ban in Call Of Duty Warzone 2.0 and the reason behind it is unbelievable. 

Call Of Duty Warzone is one of the top-grossing games of all time. It caters to millions of fans, allowing them to show their run-and-gun skills in this fictional world. Activision introduced this series during the pandemic, giving fans something to take their minds off.

It was the franchise’s first attempt to release a free-to-play title, as all their previous ones charged enough. And it was just a month before their project skyrocketed as it became of the most loved games of all time. So, after two years of thought and ideas, the developers decided to add another title, Warzone 2.0.

This title was much better than the previous one, having an enhanced version of the Ricochet. For those uninitiated, Ricochet was the anti-cheat system that helped hackers have an own taste of their medicine for cheating in the game.

And while fans were happy about it, one of the users was fairly disappointed. Apparently, it was the 100 Thieves CEO Nadeshot as he received an unnecessary shadow ban. The content creator was very invested in one of the games when his account featured the ban message, leaving him in an awkward spot.

The message popped up during a game when Nadeshot was highly invested in it. He was streaming with Josiah, trying to acquire one of the in-game nukes. But his excitement wiped off minutes after the game put a halt over him.

It was clear that Nadeshot was in no mood for jokes as he quickly spared some statements over it. Here’s what he said, “What am I possibly getting shadowbanned for? From getting knocked and dying eight times in a game, and getting $32,000 spent to revive me? How in the world can it be possible for me, a 30-year-old man who can’t even shoot straight anymore, to get shadow banned?”
