As a seasoned Call of Duty gamer with a lifetime of virtual battles under my belt, I must say this real-life showdown between JimmyBLLT and Xavier Niel was truly unprecedented. The audacity of challenging an internet billionaire to a duel in broad daylight outside a Lidl supermarket is something only someone like me, who’s lost countless games due to lag, could fathom.
In a heated moment, a Call of Duty player angry about their internet service threatened to have a one-on-one showdown with the internet provider’s owner. Incredulously, the billionaire behind the company not only agreed to the gamer’s challenge, but actually showed up for the confrontation outside a Lidl supermarket. It seems that real-life battles are as intense as those in Warzone!
Internet Billionaire vs Call of Duty player
JimmyBLLT, an enthusiast of Call of Duty, publicly challenged Xavier Niel, the influential French billionaire and proprietor of telecom giant Iliad, on Twitter. In his post, he issued a challenge to “face off” (1v1) with Mr. Niel outside a Lidl store in Paris.
The Call of Duty player expressed their frustration towards Xavier Niel on Twitter, suggesting a one-on-one match in public at the Lidl store located on rue Sainte in Marseille.
Later on, the player admitted that he confronted the online influencer since he was experiencing delays (lagging) in Call of Duty, which caused him to become frustrated. Surprisingly, Neil – a person who seemingly had more important matters to attend to – accepted the challenge instead.
After several months, the wealthy individual appeared outside the supermarket, anticipating the arrival of the gamer. On Twitter, he merely stated, “I’m here,” accompanied by a blurry self-portrait taken outside the Lidl Sainte Bienvenue store.
Following a prompt apology from the gamer, Neil uploaded a video of himself standing near a supermarket, asking: “Why aren’t you here? Let’s hook up at the parking lot if that’s okay with you?

Regrettably, the anticipated showdown between the Call of Duty player and the billionaire didn’t take place as planned, with the gamer opting out due to feeling unwell, citing a high temperature, stomach discomfort, and a headache as his reasons for absence.
Through Dextero, even the Lidl supermarket joined the fray, posting on Twitter: “Kindly come and retrieve the individual who has been tweeting since early morning outside our store on Rue Sainte in Marseille.
