Default Shady Breaker- Backyardbreaks

ALWAYS BE CAREFUL WHO YOU BREAK WITH!!!

Below is a screenshot of a fairly large break group called backyardbreaks. they break on whatnot, twitch, ig....

They offered a free box of absolute Hobby to a twitch follower and then took it back once they pulled a /10 tlaw gold kaboom.

They may be the most annoying breakers I've ever seen.

What a crew of clowns. Anyone else see them holding up an expired redemption from 6 years ago and purporting it to be a $5,000 card?

Interesting... Why even offer to give it away? At least they wore it on their sleeve, I guess....

Agreed. I don't watch much breakers. Only ones that get linked here and a few that came up under my YouTube recommendation. So small sample size, but gee whiz the screaming. I fear for our hobby if this is what the young un's are turning it into.

The stranger you are online, the more money you make. These guys wont lose any customers. This helps them gain more attention sadly.

Like attracts like. These guys are only in it for the money. So are their customers. They just took five figures out of a customers pocket becaus, “bro we can’t”. That will cost them customers who “just can’t” trust them with their money anymore.

It appears they have a terminal case of lie-a-beetus and hopefully they go away in short order.

The most astonishing aspect to watching that was how many of the people in the chat were applauding their actions. You'd like to think this would cost them their business but for some reason I think it will attract more people to them.

I would never break with them anyway. I certainly wouldn't after this.

But based on the comments in their IG story (where they clearly deleted negative responses) there are plenty of "bros" who will still break with them.

Think they said it was some guy that hasn’t bought anything? Is that correct? Think we saw that with another breaker that didn’t want to give it to a new follower.

10 seconds of that was 11 seconds too long. Somehow the crop top shirt wasn't the worst thing, which is rather impressive.
