== Controversy ==
=== Thumbnail Spoilers ===
ProsafiaGaming has received criticism for displaying major spoilers of a video game (especially a recently released video game) in the thumbnail of his videos, such as the final boss and/or ending. This has led to many people disliking his content, due to how blatantly he puts the spoilers of the video games he plays in the thumbnail of his videos, and ruining the surprise to those who haven't played said video game. He has also received criticism for having clickbait in several of his videos, such as with a video he did of Cuphead on Nintendo Switch, the thumbnail shows Cuphead and Mugman dressed up as Mario and Luigi, but there is no such costumes available for them to wear in-game.The video's thumbnail:
When Super Smash Bros. Ultimate was leaked, data-mined and pirated 2 weeks prior to the game's December 7, 2018 release, many people were worried that he would start to upload videos of the game before the game's release, and that he would spoil the game in the thumbnails as usual. The hysteria of the situation led to many people to actively petition to take down his channel,https://www.change.org/p/youtube-shut-down-prosafia-gaming but some people took it too far and began sending death threats towards him.
In response to the situation, ProsafiaGaming uploaded an apology letter on his Twitter, acknowledging the situation, and saying that if people want to avoid getting spoiled, they should either block his channel or use a video block extension on their internet browser.https://twitter.com/ProsafiaGaming/status/1066377715547348993
Prosafia had also received controversy from his reactions on Kazuya in Smash on Twitter. As a result, Prosafia had to write another apology letter.https://twitter.com/ProsafiaGaming/status/1408891704002945024?s=20
=== Attempted shooting ===
On March 27, 2020, ProsafiaGaming posted on his Twitter that somebody had shot a bullet through his window at his home, which narrowly missed his head. It is possible it might be related to the death threats, as he deduced.https://twitter.com/ProsafiaGaming/status/1243698143755210755
