VALORANT pro, Gage 'Infinite' Green is rumoured to be potentially dropped from NRG. 

The former-CSGO professional is facing the potential loss of his place on the team, with rumours circulating that it is due to a screenshot from a Twitch chat. However, on his own Twitter he has claimed that he is due for some surgery, which could explain any potential replacements on the team. On February 17, he wrote: "Most likely not going to be playing in the next VCT with the team cause I have to get surgery on my arm and back 2 days before the qualifer. It's nothing too serious just having some Lipomas removed and ill be good to go."

However, the screenshot of the said chat is being shared on social media.

As you can see from the above image, the 22-year-old reportedly lashed out at an Escape from Tarkov streamer named OskeeGee, reports Dexerto. 

OskeeGee took to Twitter to share the messages, captioning the image: "@JakeSucky @NRGgg so I killed this guy on @bstategames EFT and comes into my chat and immediately starts being disrespectful. Coming at me trying to flaunt how he is a pro player and how he gets paid, and how ill never get paid for playing any game. Someone, please speak to him!"

He later added: "its so simple if you get killed by a streamer on EFT big or small don't go into their chat and be toxic, either go in to say GG or don't join at all."

Arran "Halo" Spake, an OWL, VALORANT, and R6 Siege reporter, took to Twitter to share that sources have informed him that the changes are being considered by the team, however no reasons were given as to the reason why.
