Super Smash Bros. Star Mang0 Faces Backlash for Inappropriate Behavior at Beerio Kart Event
Super Smash Bros. legend Joseph “Mang0” Marquez is getting dragged across social media. But not for his gameplay. This time, it’s for what he did — live on stream — to several female creators during Ludwig’s Beerio Kart event.
A Wild Night That Crossed a Line
The Beerio Kart stream was supposed to be chaotic and silly. Drinking, gaming, and good vibes with top creators like Valkyrae, Will Neff, Maya Higa, ExtraEmily, and more.
But when Mang0 joined, the mood shifted.
He was clearly drunk. Shirtless. Loud. And at first, people laughed it off. But things got weird fast. And then they got uncomfortable.
The Moments That Went Too Far
Clips started surfacing after the event. Some Twitch VODs were removed, but the internet doesn’t forget. The footage made its way to Reddit’s r/LivestreamFail and other platforms.
Here’s what people saw:
- Mang0 walked up behind Maya Higa mid-stream. He put a leg on her chair and mimicked a humping motion over her head.
- Right after that, he started gyrating with a Toad plushie — directly beside her.
- Then came ExtraEmily. He hovered over her, touched her hair, and pressured her to stop her stream. At one point, he used a cardboard cutout of himself in a very uncomfortable way — groaning while doing it.
Each of these actions played out in real time, with thousands watching live.
Ludwig Tried to Step In
Ludwig, who hosted the event, tried more than once to pull Mang0 aside. But Mang0 kept coming back. It wasn’t just a drunk guy being rowdy. People watching could see that the women were visibly uncomfortable. And yet, it kept happening.
Fans Were Quick to Respond
Reddit, Twitch chats, and Twitter lit up right after the stream. Many fans were furious. Some longtime followers even said they were done supporting him.
A few tried to write it off as “just Mang0 being Mang0.” But the general vibe online was different. People called it what it was — inappropriate, invasive, and borderline harassment. And the fact that it was broadcast live made it worse.
One viewer said, “This crossed a line. He should’ve been removed as soon as it got weird.” Another asked, “Where were the boundaries? Why didn’t anyone shut it down?”
Even xQc Spoke Out
Big creators noticed too. xQc reacted to the clips and didn’t hold back. He was shocked and called out the behavior as unacceptable, regardless of how drunk Mang0 was.
It’s not the first time livestream culture has had to face hard questions. But this moment hit harder because of who was involved and how public it was.
A Bigger Conversation Starts
Mang0 has been in the game for years. He’s a legend in the Smash community. But that doesn’t excuse what happened.
This isn’t just about being too drunk. It’s about knowing when the joke isn’t funny anymore. And respecting people’s space, especially on a stream where every move is being watched.
People are now asking real questions about safety and boundaries at these creator events. The Beerio Kart stream was meant to entertain. Instead, it sparked a conversation that’s long overdue.
