JeffTheMVP Sexual Assault Allegations Lead to Mass Exodus from Org
JeffTheMVP, formerly of XTRA Gaming, has made sexual assault allegations, claiming he was assaulted by a pair of TikTok content creators. Sir Carter and ThatsSoRaffy allegedly lured him and a friend to a private party and assaulted him. To make matters worse, JeffTheMVP’s org ignored the sexual assault allegations, saying it would harm their brand. This has led to what can only be called a “mass exodus”, where most of the players have left the org entirely and brands parting ways as well. The allegations came out today, where Jeff revealed everything in a Twitlonger.
JeffTheMVP Enticed and Assaulted by TikTok Stars
It’s incredibly difficult to climb the ranks and become an esports superstar. JeffTheMVP, formerly of XTRA Gaming, and a friend were invited to a private party by Sir Carter and ThatsSoRaffy. The two TikTok content creators have significant connections and a massive following, so they wound up going despite being nervous. JeffTheMVP was nervous about coming forward about the event that led to his sexual assault allegations back in August. This is because he’s a straight male, and was worried nobody would believe him.

The idea is that they had sick gaming setups and the Fortnite player could come with his friend, hang out in the jacuzzi, and do some gaming. Sir Carter and ThatsSoRaffy allegedly tempted Jeff with endorsements, influencer friends, brand deals they have secured and more. That way, it sounds like that could be his as well. Another red flag is that Jeff says the two didn’t drink from the same bottle he did:
“Raffy and Carter kept passing me the bottle and urging me to get on their level. I wanted to fit in and make them happy so I obliged. They never drank from the bottle they made us drink from. They wanted us to chill with them until the big party they invited us to later on. We decided to seek it through because we wanted to network at the party.”
From here, Jeff felt hazy and wound up going to watch a movie with them, but felt awkward. In the Twitlonger he said he was too intoxicated to ask to leave. His friend was hiding in a bathroom, and Jeff texted him, saying he didn’t want to be left alone in there. The two woke up later, naked according to the statement – Jeff with Raffy and his friend with Carter. Understandably, Jeff didn’t want to tell his mother or sister but ultimately did go to his sister for advice.
She made him go to the police and the hospital, but he was admittedly hesitant. Again, as a man, he was worried nobody would take him seriously or the fact that he had been assaulted. The two were messaged again by the two that did the alleged deed, as well as a friend of theirs, Larray.
Exodus From XTRA Gaming
When JeffTheMVP went to XTRA Gaming about his sexual assault allegations, the response was a repulsive one:
“My e-sports team, Xtra Gaming even made me feel wrong for wanting to get what happened to me out to the public. They said that I would have to leave the team if I wanted to talk about this publicly. They said it would look bad on their brand. My friend and I both got scalded and made to feel like it was our fault by the owner of the team. It destroyed me to not have my team which is like family to me back me and be there for me. It was a bad feeling to be made to feel as if this was my fault. It wasn’t.”
The two have receipts of things said, a rape kit was done, and more. They have video evidence of Xtra Gaming members putting the blame on him, and victim-blaming is never okay. The two TikTok creators were also made aware that Jeff identifies as a straight male and has a girlfriend. He was not interested in any encounters with them.
Jeff is beyond hurt by having to deal with this, and his own org treating him like he was at fault. At least a dozen members of Xtra Gaming have left the org as of this writing. According to our own Jake Lucky, only a handful of XTRA members are still with the org, several dozen leaving after this came to light. Even partners like Razer revealed they are terminating their partnership with Xtra Gaming, effective immediately. They also said that affected players that need support are more than welcome to reach out to Razer directly.
The idea that a player would have to leave a team to talk about how they were assaulted is absolutely egregious. This is apparently not the first time something like this has happened in the org, either. ThatGeekAaron also made a claim that XTRA Gaming ignored him when he said he was being abused by his father. The strength required to come forward with sexual assault allegations is incredible, and we are proud Jeff came forward with his story. There is also an investigation underway, and we will keep you up to date as it develops.
