Matt Vaughn (born March 31, 1988), better known as Dellor is an American streamer and former professional gamer.

Esports and streaming career

edit

On September 6, 2016, Vaughn was announced as one of the first six Overwatch players to represent esports organization Toronto Esports.[2]

While playing and streaming Overwatch on April 22, 2017, Vaughn went on a racist rant, repeatedly using the word "nigger" for approximately 30 seconds, after being killed in-game and criticized by both teammates and opposition for his performance. Following the incident, Vaughn was released from Toronto Esports for breach of contract. Vaughn's Twitch account was also taken down as a result of the incident. In his apology, Vaughn quit esports, as well as vowing to go to a doctor to get help.[3][4][5]

After ending his esports career, Vaughn gained fame through compilations of his rage playing video games, notably Fortnite Battle Royale,[6] with such compilations gaining millions of views on YouTube.[7]

In April, 2019, Vaughn told his female teammate: "go fucking cook a fucking sandwich you fucking bitch", while arguing with her,[8] for which he was banned from Twitch for one month and then demonetized.[9] This, along with him breaking a keyboard over his head in October 2019, resulted in him getting permanently banned from Twitch. This ban, however, was widely criticized as another streamer, Alinity, had avoided punishment after flinging a cat and trying to feed it vodka.[10] After this, Vaughn continued to stream on YouTube Gaming,[11] although he was later unbanned from Twitch.[12]

Personal life

edit

According to his own Twitter page, Vaughn suffers from autism spectrum disorder, and was in debt and addicted to methamphetamine prior to 2018.[13] His mother raised him and his brother alone.[13]
