Scout Breaks Silence on Sudden BGMS Exit: “Didn’t Want Anyone Else to Suffer”
India’s esports scene was left stunned when Tanmay “Scout” Singh, one of the country’s biggest BGMI stars, suddenly exited the BGMS tournament midway. Fans feared the worst—rumors swirled about injuries, personal drama, even burnout. But now, Scout himself has finally set the record straight.
Scout confirmed he was battling a serious infection—and it wasn’t just about him. In a heartfelt statement, he revealed:
“I had a highly contagious infection. I didn’t want any player or their families to suffer because of me. I’ll recover soon and meet the team in Delhi. Please everyone, take care of your health—even mild fever should be checked by a doctor.”
The confession sent shockwaves across social media, with hashtags like #GetWellSoonScout and #ScoutOP flooding X (formerly Twitter). Fans praised him for putting the community first. One fan wrote, “Respect. He chose the team’s safety over his own clout.” Another said, “Scout is proof that true leaders think beyond the game.”
Scout’s sudden withdrawal highlights the growing physical toll on pro gamers, who often grind for hours under intense schedules. His advice to not ignore even mild symptoms struck a chord with fans, many admitting they too overlook small health issues during long gaming sessions.
For now, Scout is focused on recovery. But his assurance that he’ll reunite with his team in Delhi has already reignited hype among fans waiting for his return. Will this health scare slow him down—or come back as the comeback story esports needs?
