TTGZOMBIFIEDMiss Don't know if anyone else noticed (highly doubt it since some don't actually read the article), but half the article is the same thing word for word. Just letting you know, whomever wrote the article.
Anyways, I doubt they did it. They're most likely trying to come off as tough.

Pretty sure the news posts are controlled by a bot.

These are the same guys who took down the league servers every night for about a month straight. Wouldn't doubt it if they moved onto consoles.
