The off-laner of World Team Falcons, Ammar "ATF" Al-Assaf, spoke about the conflict with Akbar "SoNNeikO" Butaev from World AVULUS that occurred at PGL Wallachia Season 2.
"To clarify what happened today: three months ago, during a ranked match against SoNNeikO, I called him an idiot. After the match, he sent me a threatening message on X, which I took as a joke. Today, he approached me in the hotel lobby, put his hand on my shoulder, and began to threaten me, saying he would hit me and put me on the ground (xd?). I replied, ‘Go on, hit me.’ He just stood there, continuing to threaten me, despite the attempts of the AVULUS manager, coach, and players to intervene. In any case, I believe he acted this way because he cannot beat me in the game."
Previously, the esports organisation Team Falcons issued an official statement urging the organisers of PGL Wallachia Season 2 to disqualify the captain of AVULUS from the tournament.
