Once the gig was up, Cyraxx set his sights on William Gloryhole, N-Word Boi and MusicBizMarty, despite the latter's death over a month prior. In a [[Rage|rage-filled]] call with someone posing as Marty, Cyraxx loudly threatens him into paying for the broken console, while [[Sally]] begs for him to keep it down<ref>https://rumble.com/v6q5fhg-what-a-shame-that-chance-lost-yet-another-xbox.-342025..html?start=161</ref>. The next day, Cyraxx makes a video where he attempts to play off the destruction of his precious toy as trivial, smugly claiming that it did not matter to him since he wanted to focus onto PC gaming. Sadly for him however, his PC would suffer the same fate less than two weeks later. Of note in this video, Cyraxx sounds meeker and his voice has a noticeable hoarseness into it, suggesting at a prolonged, intense rage fit over the last night.<ref>https://rumble.com/v6q6ofy-cyraxx-live-on-youtube.-yall-aint-stoppin-shit-.-352025.-lol-sure-pdfile-su.html?e9s=src_v1_ucp</ref> | Once the gig was up, Cyraxx set his sights on William Gloryhole, N-Word Boi and MusicBizMarty, despite the latter's death over a month prior.

=== PC bricking === | |||
Sometimes in early 2025, Cyraxx was tricked by trolls to install a backdoor and malware onto his gaming PC, allowing them to coordinate DDoS attacks and dig up previously unknown information about him. | |||
On March 21st, a buddy-troll approached Cyraxx proposing to help him getting rid of the malware<ref>https://rumble.com/v6r0tio-cyraxx-nukes-his-own-pc.-3212025..html?e9s=src_v1_ucp_v</ref>. The buddy-troll then instructs Cyraxx to repeatedly flash his BiOS to "cleanse" it. Flashing is a firmware update procedure which is usually done to fix bugs, but is otherwise not recommended as it can permanently damage the motherboard if done incorrectly. Just as planned, Cyraxx ends up bricking the motherboard of his PC, preventing it from booting up. While this can be fixed, it is extremely unlikely that Cyraxx has the technical know-how to restore his PC, let alone the financial means to buy new parts or a new system. | |||
=== Xbox 360/Wii bricking === | |||
On June 23rd 2025, Cyraxx bricked not one but two consoles, that being his Wii and an old Xbox 360 sent by a buddy-troll<ref>https://rumble.com/v6v87bp-the-3-amigos-have-done-it-again-one-more-xbox-brick-and-a-bonus-wii-brick-l.html?e9s=src_v1_ucp_v</ref>. Subtility be damned, the trolls this time simply sent Cyraxx a USB drive claiming it contained mods and files for his consoles. Cyraxx produced a video where after presumably bricking his Wii, he plugs the killstick device into his Xbox 360 as if to show that it was indeed a killstick device. Why did he destroy another console despite knowing the device to be malicious is something which will forever remain a mystery<ref>https://rumble.com/v6v87bp-the-3-amigos-have-done-it-again-one-more-xbox-brick-and-a-bonus-wii-brick-l.html?e9s=src_v1_ucp_v</ref>, but it was likely done to "prove" that trolls are "destroying his property" and that he was not peculiarly attached to the 20-year old console. | |||
