On June 23, 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> Subtlety 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 kill stick device into his Xbox 360 while loudly exclaiming his suspicions that it was a kill stick to show that it was indeed a kill stick device. Why he destroyed 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. | On June 23, 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> Subtlety be damned, the trolls this time simply sent Cyraxx a USB drive claiming it contained mods and files for his consoles.

=== Third time's the charm === | |||
In December 2025, Cyraxx recieved a $700 donation from a buddy-troll, which he promptly used to purchase himself a brand new Xbox Series S. However, this console only lasted a week before it too fell prey to Cyraxx's stupidity and greed when he foolishly plugged in a steering wheel controller rigged with a killstick device, sent to him by a buddy-troll. | |||

Sometime in early 2025, Cyraxx was tricked by trolls to install a backdoor and the infamous MEMZ Trojan 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 | 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 flash the BiOS whilst simultaneously rebooting his PC. Flashing is a firmware update procedure 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. | ||
