paiN Gaming Suspends LoL Star TitaN Indefinitely Amid Sexual Harassment Allegations
Brazilian powerhouse paiN Gaming has indefinitely suspended League of Legends ADC Alexandre “TitaN” Lima from competitive play following serious allegations of sexual harassment and the non-consensual sharing of intimate images.
The accusations surfaced publicly on January 12 when streamer and influencer Gabriela “Gabzuski” Zambrozuski revealed that she and four other women plan to pursue legal action against TitaN.
According to reports from Brazilian outlet Mais Esports, the claims involve unlawful distribution of private content and sexual misconduct.
Accusers Come Forward
In a candid X post, Gabzuski detailed how her own experience prompted others to share similar “very sad stories” involving TitaN:
“After I shared my situation… other girls sent me very sad stories involving this person. Since I understand that more serious matters should be dealt with seriously, we will be taking everything to court.”
Mais Esports confirmed the group of five women is preparing a joint lawsuit, emphasizing the gravity of the reported behaviors. paiN was contacted for comment prior to publication but initially had not responded publicly.
paiN Acts Decisively
The organization issued two statements on X within hours. The first acknowledged the allegations. “We have become aware of the allegations involving athlete TitaN and the matter is receiving priority attention… treated with the utmost seriousness.”
Later that day, paiN announced the suspension: “We base our decisions on our principles and the institutional responsibility we carry. Given the context involving the athlete TitaN, we have decided to suspend him indefinitely from competitive activities.”
Vinicius “Marvin” Marvin, a paiN academy standout since 2023, steps in as replacement. Marvin claimed the CBLOL Academy First Split and Americas Challengers titles in 2024.
