It is no secret that twelve-member boy band EXO has some of the most passionate fans in K-Pop. Their popularity stretches across the globe and with that fame, many times, comes over-zealous fans who will stop at nothing to prove their devotion.

The latest news of EXO and their fans is in relation to a rather surprising context - the world of online gaming.

League of Legends is a popular online game where users battle it out in a multi-player arena in real time.

With the third season of the World Championships now underway, many EXO fans are incredibly angered by one participant's user name, 'Exo.'

As the world's top players duke it out for the $2 million grand prize, EXO fans are rallying to gain enough signatures to force a name change in the online game's portal.

Their petition reportedly needs a minimum of 100,000 supporters before 'Exo' will change his player ID.

However, with the League of Legends Championship already begun, it seems highly unlikely that the name change will happen this time around.

However, if they gain enough support, EXO fans will be delighted in their own victory of convincing user 'Exo' to change his handle for future battles.
