Criticism

On his Fandom^[4] Wiki page speaks of him in negative terms, calling him "lazy" and a liar. It states:

Throughout his career as a Youtube content creator/Twitch livestreamer, Wings grew a reputation of being a lazy, lying, non-committal, no will-power-having bitch that would constantly whine and complain about everything. Without fail, Richard would complain about how hard his life is whilst concurrently actively refusing to change some of the most simple factors in his life that would make his situation better. Every week, without fail, Riq would complain about some silly bullshit that he could easily change, all while making thousands of dollars a week sitting in his abused chair playing video games for a couple hours a day. Riq always somehow managed to find his way into some sort of drama but, somehow nothing was ever his fault. People just pick on this poor soul for "no reason". The notoriety that Riquardo gained for being a scumbag piece of dogshit led to Youtube channels surfacing whose sole intention was to highlighting his fails, lies, stupidity and overall asshole-ish behavior.

On September 18th, 2019, YouTuber Fredrik Knudsen published a Down the Rabbit Hole video about WingsOfRedemption. The video tracks Jordan's career on Twitch, specifically how fans and friends treat him online. Within 24 hours, the video received more than 583,000 views and became #11 on trending for gaming.
