The x190 KRTOG battles were a series of battles that mainly took place on c60a, a snip canvas. The conflict was fought over territory and both sides were backed by allies.

Background

KRTOG is a small faction led by fisk, who often builds a majority of the art themselves. They had joined the alliance Super Serious Pixel Group, and had participated in the Space Collab. They had been missing for a few weeks by the beginning of c60a, so ARdude and several other SSPG members recreated a "ginger kek" emote on canvas.

x190 is a faction mainly led by D_Leeo, and consists of many high count players. They had built a few small pieces to fit on the canvas. The faction was also helping ChE in the Crucible war.

The Conflict

The KRTOG kek and x190's art were right next to each other. Before real fighting broke out, AliceNobodi repeatedly reported blue outlines being made on the kek by an unknown user (due to the snip canvas.)

Fighting broke out when x190 began a full attack on the kek art. Due to the snip chat not seeing names negotiations were almost impossible, especially due to D_Leeo's refusal to share their identity for several hours. ARdude suggested that moving the art would be the best decision for the situation, and was agreed with to an extent. D_Leeo's suggestion of placing the new art in the center of the barely started MikuAM art (another member of SSPG) was denied, and construction began in a new spot near the center of the canvas.

Fisk's Return

Fisk returned midway through canvas. They decided to try and take back the art. A counterattack was planned, and a DM with many high ranking SSPG members and Liam (Leader of ChE, an ally of x190) was created to attempt to quell the conflict. Negotiations failed and the fighting resumed. SSPG began to gain ground, taking x190 by surprise.

Opting out of protecting their zone, x190 began to grief the new kek art, both sides were making significant ground on each others artwork. Several SSPG members dropped out of the offensive and began to retake the KRTOG kek. They made steady progress, but unknowingly set themselves up for failure. x190 had been a great help to ChE in the Crucible war, and D_Leeo confronted Liam saying that x190 would drop out of the conflict entirely if they did not get help on removing KRTOG from the canvas. Liam obliged, pinging the ChE discord server and wiping out the artwork.

Aftermath

After the loss, SSPG was incredibly demoralized. ARdude began a faction called Coalition for the Protection of Small Factions, a LOF-like faction aimed at protecting small art and factions. ARdude also had run-ins with Leeo and had disagreements over the use of the r-slur. The arguments reached a climax when ARdude attempted to rebuild a small art that had been overrun by x190's lattice. This conflict led to them being banned from Flandre, and eventually the end of CPSF.
