I tried very hard to work with that guy. I knew it was going to be tough when he would hold the party up while he investigated a pendulum trap to try and disarm it when all it needed was a pretty easy dex check to bypass it. He ended up getting killed by it and the party just left him there. Then they were in a town bringing the party cleric to the temple for a greater restoration due to some stat drain. I had the priests collect the cleric and take them to the uppermost floor. That guy followed them up despite the priests telling the party to go find something to do while they fixed the cleric. The priests told him all the way up to not anger the gods and to wait with the party. The priests at the top said turn back now or the temple itself will act. That guy walks past the priests on the stair case, i have the steps dissappear and he falls 80ft, takes max damage and dies, then complains that i gave him no warning and no chance to survive because he was out of ki. The party has my back on this. They were yelling at him the whole time to just it go. I set up a fun session where the parry is being hunted for sport. I let half the party play the hunters as well as thier own characters. They got very into it including the paladin fireballing his own character. That guy complains when his character took damage during the chase amd said he felt he was being targetted.
The last straw was getting him to DM Icewind Dale for us. He was trying to emulate my style of dming where the fights are far and few between but are incredibly dangerous. The difference is that i shower the party with magic items and give them some cannon fodder/flavourful and helpful npcs they can control to help them out. He just hits the level 1 party with a cr 4 monster that kills half the party in one hit and only went down due to two lucky crits. Then he has every single npc act like a complete dick for no reason even though we just saves the town from an incredibly dangerous creature. His last day with us he made fun of one of the other players for his dead wife.
I was tired of this guy long before everyone else was. Ive actually got one more story where he betrayed the lich they were doing some work for and expected to still be alive after the rest of party ratted him out.

Apparently his behaviour gets a pass at the local game shop cause i see him playing there regularly but the rest of my party were newbies
Holy shit, ain’t nobody got time for that. That last bit is insane. Who does that? Surprised he lasted as long with you guys as he did…
