The mildly offensive actions of a pro Overwatch player has raised questions about player conduct in Blizzard’s new Overwatch League.

Joon-yeong “Profit” Park, a player on London Spitfire, started his appearance in Overwatch League yesterday by giving the middle finger to the camera in front of him. The moment can be seen in the Twitch clip below. It appears that Profit didn’t mean to throw up the finger maliciously. Stylosa, a YouTuber who serves as the team’s “British consultant,” tweeted that Profit was responding to the audio team in the dugout area and forgot the camera feed was live.
