That's pretty unfortunate. I hope his family members and close-related friends and such are dealing well with his passing.
Rest in peace

This is crazy how life can hit friends and family member's so hard in a matter of seconds. Rumors were going to around saying he was drink driving, and the police report said he wasn't. Hate rumors just mucks up the whole story line in a way. Also "the passenger" was his best friend so he died as well. BUT odd thing here the GF survived wtf. One lucky thing to survive a car accident. Seen the GF video on Twitter very saddening. Who ever is in-charge of that fundraiser they changed the price to $15k to $20k now. I don't watch his video's or him play NEVER. Never heard of him before so it's sad to loose a H2K member like that in a heart beat.

This is so crazy. I didn't really watch him a whole lot but I tuned in for a few of his streams when he was doing competitive matches, rip.
