9Class and Fishman on Their Ongoing Conflict

The conflict between Tundra Esports' support player Edgar "9Class" Naltakyan and Entity Gaming's Dmitry "Fishman" Polishchuk has garnered significant attention in the Dota 2 community. Both players have provided their perspectives on how their feud began and the possibility of reconciliation.

9Class's Account

9Class shared his side of the story, detailing how the conflict with Fishman escalated during one of his streams. He explained that initially, he had a positive view of Fishman, especially since Fishman had once invited him to join his team.

"Alright, since Fishman decided to bring this up, I'll say what happened during a stream with 1k viewers. I used to have a normal attitude towards him since he once invited me to join his team, but he went crazy.

He spams GG WP every game like Ammar [ATF]. I chat and troll with him the same way. After that, he immediately calls me an idiot. Okay, I ignored it and kept playing, but then he came to my stream and continued the negativity. I tell him, 'Get the heck off my stream.' I didn't even insult him after his first message. But he keeps going.

I start explaining that he trolls opponents like Falcons to win, and I do the same but in all-chat. There's nothing special about it. Occasionally, this happens with Ammar, and he doesn't mind, he treats me normally. After my explanations, Fishman says he'll break my face and 'We'll see how you say that to me at LAN.' What do you want me to say? I don't understand.

Also, guys, I wanted to ask you. How do you know who spams GG WP without negativity, and who does it with negativity? Who tips without negativity, and who does it with negativity? I'm totally confused. Illidan believes that if you tip."

Fishman's Perspective

Fishman responded to 9Class's account, providing his version of events and expressing his frustration with the situation. He admitted that 9Class was the first to initiate provocative behavior during their interactions in games.

"Yes, I spam GG WP, especially when I lose. I haven't had an argument with anyone in pubs for almost four years. It's just fun for me to play this way, there is absolutely no negativity. Yes, I invited 9Class to the team. I knew Edgar was talented when he was ranked 300. I even wrote to him about it on VKontakte. Yes, during reshuffles, I asked about the team, but Kataomi decided not to leave.

9Class has serious beef with ATF, and that's the first reason he started all-chatting me in all the pubs we were in and typing during scrims. A week ago, I got tired of it and told him he was rude. After the game, I went to his stream, and he said, 'This guy says I'm a bad person, get out of here, damn 30-year-old low-skill.' In Bobruisk, he wouldn't have gotten away with that.

I'm giving them another chance for a normal relationship in the future if he stops slandering me."

As the community watches this conflict unfold, it remains to be seen whether 9Class and Fishman can resolve their differences and maintain professional decorum in future encounters.
