He is well-known for his regular appearances in the Top 10 North American ranked ladder as an off tank for Overwatch.

On Twitter, user KhaleesiBB claimed that the Overwatch pro Mouffin was drunk and become aggressive with her and some other women at TwitchCon in 2019 (this year's TwitchCon has been cancelled due to the coronavirus). It was their first meeting, and she claims that Mouffin became "aggressive with other girls at the AirBnB, being creepy, touching them and grabbing their wrists so hard he left bruises on them." He was also accused offering alcohol to underage minors and sending nudes of his own to some women as young as 15.

He had sent them videos and engaged with sexual behavior with them… Mouffin had a penchant for underage girls and overall extremely predatory behavior towards women.” Khaleesi continued in her Twitter message about Mouffin's alleged behavior. It's not good news for Mouffin, considering Overwatch's history of banning toxic players.

The world of competitive gaming is high-stakes and stressful, but there is no excuse if the rumors of this behavior are true. The pro has been benched from his seat in the Boston Uprising pending an investigation of the allegations. The team has this to say on Twitter:
