Alleged Adderall usage
It has become a running joke to accuse Westballz of using Adderall as a performance enhancing drug (PED). This originates from a Twitter post made by Mango's girlfriend accusing him of it after Westballz beat Mango at Mayhem June 2015; Westballz responded by denying the claims as baseless. Some people have scrutinized his ability to multishine for extended periods of time as a result of PED usage. This phenomenon can be seen as part of a larger awareness of PED usage in the larger eSports scene, such as the Electronic Sports League's decision to start drug testing.
