No Arm Whatley shared on his Twitter account how he fell from the third floor of his building while trying to close a broken window, resulting in multiple severe injuries. After recovering, this member of the League of Legends streaming community decided to make a Tier List video to rank his injuries. In the video, Whatley describes the intense details of his injury and recovery. He endured an acute subdural hematoma, two brain bleeds, two brain contusions, and several other traumatic injuries.

League of Legends Streamer Injury Tier List

S-Tier

  • Acute Subdural Hemotoma
  • 2 bleeds on brain
  • 2 contusions (bruises) on brain
  • I’m bald now

  • Viscous Hemorrhaging in right eye
  • Submacular Hemorrhaging in left eye

The most challenging part of his recovery included a craniotomy, a procedure where doctors opened his skull to relieve pressure. Despite the tough experience, Whatley kept it lighthearted by giving his baldness an “S-Tier” rank along with his brain injuries, saying the hair loss felt just as impactful as the life-threatening injuries. Among Whatley’s other injuries were serious hemorrhages in both eyes and fractures in his pelvis, spine, and foot. Yet, his humor stayed strong, as he joked in his video, “These injuries might be worse medically, but this baldness hurts more socially.”

Whatley even described his injuries as having a “stupidly high death rate,” but said he found comfort in his ability to laugh about it, hoping his story might inspire his fans to find humor in life’s toughest setbacks. Alongside his lighthearted injury ranking, Whatley also talked about the League of Legends World Championship, which started in early October and is traveling through Europe, with the final scheduled for November 2 in Paris. Despite his doctors advising against it, Whatley insisted he wouldn’t miss the event.

As League of Legends teams compete for the championship title in Berlin, London, and Paris, Whatley is on his recovery journey. For now, the streamer has returned to streaming and has even managed to reach Silver rank in League of Legends.
