TitaN Suspended from paiN Gaming after several Sexual Harassment Allegations

The Brazilian League of Legends scene just exploded. Alexandre "TitaN" Lima, player for paiN Gaming, has been indefinitely suspended from the organization after five women, including his ex-girlfriend, streamer Gabzuski, confirmed they're taking legal action against the player.

The allegations are serious. According to reports, the accusations involve alleged illegal sharing of intimate content and sexual harassment. The incidents reportedly occurred during different periods of relationships with the player.

How It All Came Out

It all started when Gabriela Zambrozuski, known as Gabzuski, exposed an alleged cheating incident involving TitaN on social media. What seemed like just another messy breakup quickly spiraled into something much bigger.

The streamer revealed that after sharing her own story, she started receiving messages from other women reporting even more serious situations involving the player. "After I exposed my situation... other girls sent me really heartbreaking reports involving this person. Since I understand that more serious things should be handled seriously, we'll be taking everything to court," Gabzuski wrote on her X profile.

An anonymous X account even shared screenshots that allegedly showed incriminating messages. Gabzuski confirmed the material was real: "I saw it and it's real."

PaiN Gaming's Response

The organization didn't waste any time taking a stance. Initially, paiN Gaming issued a more cautious statement, saying the matter was receiving "priority attention" and that they were evaluating the available information before taking action.

But the situation was too serious for half-measures. The organization announced TitaN's indefinite suspension, basing the decision on "its principles and the institutional responsibility it carries."

The replacement is already set. Vinicius "Marvin" de Souza, from paiN's Academy roster, is taking over the ADC position for the 2026 CBLOL Cup. Sources close to Mais Esports confirmed that Marvin had already been practicing with the main team since last Friday (January 9), even before the case went public.

"paiN Gaming guides its decisions by its principles and the institutional responsibility it carries. Given the context involving player Alexandre "TitaN" Lima, the organization has decided on his indefinite suspension from competitive activities.
The case continues to be monitored responsibly, and any new decisions will be made as the situation develops. During this period, the player will be replaced by Vinicius "Marvin" de Souza, a League of Legends Academy player with paiN Gaming since 2023, with a solid track record in the organization, champion of the 2024 CBLOL Academy 1st Split and the 2024 Americas Challengers."

The Timing Couldn't Be Worse

This crisis hits at a crucial moment for paiN Gaming. The organization had just assembled a heavyweight lineup for 2026, bringing back legendary names like Robo and tinowns, the championship duo that made history with the team. Alongside CarioK, TitaN, and Kuri, expectations were high for a strong year in the CBLOL.

TitaN, who turned 25 in July 2025, had been with paiN since 2021 and was considered a key piece of the roster. The player actively participated in the organization's recent victories and was among the names set to represent Brazil in international competitions.

paiN Gaming's debut in the 2026 CBLOL will now happen with Marvin in TitaN's place. The young player, who was champion of the 2024 CBLOL Academy 1st Split and the 2024 Americas Challengers, now has the responsibility of taking over the position amid all this turmoil.

Now It's in the Courts' Hands

The five women are expected to file the lawsuit in the coming days, according to information gathered by specialized media. As of this publication, TitaN hasn't publicly addressed the allegations.

The case is still developing, and the player's status within paiN Gaming remains undefined. The organization made it clear they're taking the matter with the seriousness it demands, but didn't specify whether there's a possibility of the player's return or if more drastic measures might be taken.

For Gabzuski and the other women involved, the next step is letting the courts evaluate the evidence and determine what happens next. The streamer made it clear she's willing to support other possible victims who want to come forward.
