==Controversies==
===God Eater montage videos===
Around April to May 2017, [[knobbelboy]] had released his second preview of God Eater (now known as Astral Divinity). It quickly attracted 200,000 views but also prompted large footage-stealing controversy, causing tensions between [[Sea]] and Nexus.
===Antarctic Lights showcase===
After verifying [[Antarctic Lights]], Axinity posted his completion video on 16 July 2026,<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uue4ZRhVf-I</ref> and wrote 'Showcasers, you suck.' in the description, with no explanation whatsoever. Not long after, Nexus asked his community in a poll whether he should showcase Antarctic Lights (after seeing what Axinity wrote), and over 90% of voters chose 'Sure'.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/post/UgkxyoWJXn-2ZOLHGP-v19DMseKvDpplFD4d</ref> Nexus would then proceed to upload a showcase titled 'ANTARCTIC LIGHTS VERIFIED | TOP 10'. A few minutes later, Axinity posted on Twitter, and it went viral right away, in which he criticized Nexus for showcasing the level, claiming that 'both me [Axinity] and Declan said no :D'.<ref>https://x.com/Axinity_/status/2080757933294387650</ref> However, there was no proof of that happening.
After the tweet, the community divided into two main camps: those who supported Nexus and those who supported Axinity. People argued that, out of basic human respect, Nexus should have honoured the creators' wishes, and they felt he bypassed their boundaries purely to capitalize on the hype and ad revenue of a major new level release. In defence of Nexus, people claimed that Nexus had the right to showcase the level because it was uploaded to a public, open-access server owned by [[Robert Topala|RobTop]]. Because the level ID is public, anyone has the legal and technical right to play, record, or showcase it. They viewed the creators' request as an unreasonable gatekeeping of public content. They also questioned why Axinity approves of his friend declan showcasing Antarctic Lights, since he hates showcasers. Additionally, Nexus waited for eight days before even making his own showcase.
After the drama, Nexus made a YouTube community post saying he removed his Antarctic Lights showcase video because he was truly unaware that both Axinity and declan did not want him to do so.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/post/Ugkxxz1dxm5X4ZJUYPHZv8Fqdoz3U7KZRaa3</ref> Nexus's poll on whether he should showcase the level happened because of the 'Showcasers, you suck.' message in the description, as he was not aware of what that meant and wanted his viewers to decide.
After all that, Nexus made another community post. He said that he never wanted to take credit for anyone's verification, and putting, e.g. 'FLAMEWALL VERIFIED' in the title was just celebratory. However, he said that he will make his showcase titles clearer from now on.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/post/UgkxzD4E6B666ACTqFqb5DJZxlJEKCjoQrxX</ref>
On 5 August 2026, amid the recent drama, zeenoh made a video about the problem with showcasers in the Geometry Dash community, explaining how showcasing has deteriorated over the years.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vBKA8qO8GZo</ref> zeenoh brought up the example of Nexus, who used to be a showcase channel for levels he beat himself, but after seeing the success of showcasers like Just a GD player, who started showcasing newly verified Top 1 levels, he decided to do the same. However, he would make his video titles misleading, as if he had verified these levels himself, to gain views, like the earlier-mentioned 'FLAMEWALL VERIFIED'. Also, zeenoh called present-day showcasing one of the laziest things ever, and not only does it take away views from the verifier, but it also gives huge amounts of revenue to showcasers who took 10 minutes, max 1 hour, to bot a level. At the same time, a top player can spend months on one single level. Zoink reacted to the video, agreeing with everything said, and condemning Nexus for his actions.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwLUDuuWb80</ref>
