How MrBeast used Ludwig to defeat Ninja?

During a recent stream, Ludwig told his fans that MrBeast called him to invite him to play in the Ultimate Crown. However, the YouTuber is not a good LoL player, as he’s only a Level 18 in-game, equivalent to a novice in it. Despite informing MrBeast about this, he still invited him to play.

Ludwig said, “I’m not a good gamer at all at League of Legends. So I tell this to MrBeast, and he goes, hey, you want to play my tournament, and I say, hey, MrBeast, I love doing things with you, but I cannot lie to you. Man to Man, I do not know how to play this game, and he goes that’s okay, you can still play. And I’m like, great, I’m looking forward to it, I like hanging out with you, and then he hung up.”

“I show up at the event, but I realize when I’m there that MrBeast didn’t put me on his own team. He called me and asked me to do this event. And when I saw him, I was like, yo, why am I not on your team. He said, oh, it’s because you said you were bad. So, I put you on other people’s teams. He only asked me to play so he could win.”
