Car Accident Kills Phillip “PhiZZURP” Klemenov

Passengers included his best friend, another gamer who also lost his life, and his girlfriend Adriana who survived the accident. No formal word on what caused the accident as of yet, but rumor has it he was driving while intoxicated. If this is the case, he was responsible for the death of his friend, making the unfortunate event that much more devastating.

It was girlfriend Adrina Lemus’ tragically tearful video that broke the news to many of his fans:

The popular player had played professional Call of Duty for a number of years and was recently in the H2k Gaming squad who took part in the CoD World League in North America.

H2K posted the following tribute to the gamer on Facebook:

His biography on H2K reads as follows:
Phizzurp is the most tenured player in our CoD squad. Phil is hailed as one of the most versatile players around and in addition to his success on the competitive field, he has attracted a loyal fan base through his YouTube channel. Having been a part of Quantic, FeaR and Strictly Business, Phizzurp is now sporting the H2K colours in search for more silverware and podium finishes.

Outpourings of support from around the Call of Duty and gaming community are pouring in through twitter, facebook and other social media.

A GoFundme page has been created to pay for his funeral expenses.
