Walco: "The team would've 100% survived and thrived had FaNg not had an enormous ego"
The drama has continued to consume Party Astronauts as Colby "Walco" Walsh has released a public statement bashing former teammate Justin "FaNg" Coakley for the demise of Party Astronauts. The statement from Walco is the fourth comment from the former Party Astronauts on the team's breakup following previous barbs by Walco and Tommy "Axed" Ryan and an incendiary post by FaNg directed at Axed.
Walco started his post by stating that he does not normally involve himself in team drama, but that circumstances demanded he wade into the quagmire. In the post he is quite magnanimous towards Ben "ben1337" Smith despite being cut by PA's IGL, centering his criticism for the team's failure squarely on FaNg.
Walco claims that the team failed due to FaNg's "enormous ego" and ben1337's inability to control his long-team teammate, saying that he and Axed are not to blame for the team's problems. He alleges that FaNg was unwilling to accept criticism on the team "and when faced with critique or bad stats he will rage and lash out at people" including his teammates.
The statement by the Canadian closes with Walco stating that he regrets what happened to the team and that he hopes his and Axed's records stand up to the scrutiny leveled towards them in the wake of their departures from Party Astronauts.
