Banned esports player Bauyrzhan "lilskrip" Bisembaev revealed who initiated the match-fixing in Dota 2. According to him, Kamil "Koma`" Biktimirov was the first to suggest engaging in this practice.
"Koma` wrote to his friends to defend him. Yatoro and Yuragi started saying Kamil wasn't guilty. That's how the hashtag #FreeKoma came about. Everyone laughed at this. Then he released a video saying he regretted everything and was no longer associated with us. He tried to get away with it. And in the end, that's what happened. He joined Team Spirit, and we are the bad guys. Koma` says we almost forced him to throw matches. If you look behind the scenes, Koma` was the initiator of everything. He said, 'Why are we sitting idle, let's make some money.' Koma` was the first to suggest this. 'You guys have done this before, I haven't. But I want to. Let's do it.' Since Koma` wanted it, we discussed it and decided to do the dirty work. And now, according to rumors, he's badmouthing us," said Bauyrzhan "lilskrip" Bisembaev.
Bisembaev admitted that he managed to earn around one million rubles in six months.
"I can't name the exact clean amount. One game was 30-40 thousand rubles at a tier-4 tournament. Then the amounts doubled. Before the ban, I earned around a million in six months," added Bauyrzhan "lilskrip" Bisembaev.
At the end of 2022, PGL and Valve permanently banned lilskrip, Koma`, and eight other players for account sharing during events. They will be allowed to participate in ESL tournaments starting December 2024.
