The CEO of Panda Global has been removed from his role following Smash Bros tournament allegations that have led to numerous members leaving the eSports organisation

by the organisers of Smash World Tour claimed: “We quickly found that many organisers were concerned about joining up in 2022. They told us that they had been told by Alan, the CEO and co-founder of Panda, that we were going to get shut down and were not coming back in 2022.”

According to the statement, Nintendo reassured Smash World Tour that Panda’s licence was not exclusive, and that it would speak to the Panda CEO about his alleged behaviour. Instead, however, Smash World Tour claims it was eventually told by Nintendo that it would not be given a license to host Smash Bros events in 2023, and had to cancel its annual championships, set to take place on December 9 to 11 with a prize pool of $250,000.saying that while it did “regret an interaction between Dr Alan and [epsorts channel] Beyond the Summit”, it was adamant that “any implication that the Panda Cup team had any influence on [the closure of Smash World Tour] is false”.
