Team Tea's support player Akbar "SoNNeikO" Butaev commented on Bauyrzhan "lilskrip" Bisembaev's match-fixing accusations. According to Butaev, the notorious Dota player sought attention.
"I was accused again of being a match-fixer and a bad person. All I can say is that throughout my career, these so-called match-fixers never provided solid proof that I was involved. The boy got upset over the situation with the organization and decided to cry. If the person blocked on my Telegram had identified himself as lilskrip from the first message, this lineup wouldn't have existed. Show me a single case of match-fixing involving me, please!" SoNNeikO asserted.
"I understand match-fixers only survive by accusing others of hype. But please, don't involve me and then cry about it. I won't continue this topic or participate in it. I aspire to achieve great things and am proud to have never been involved in match-fixing," he added.
Earlier, SoNNeikO, Ekki, Smiling Knight, Xibbe, and Mikey left HardBass Team. Lilskrip claimed the players suspected him of leaking information to opponents as their manager, leading to an ultimatum for his departure.
In response, lilskrip accused SoNNeikO of match-fixing, stating, "He doesn't understand that I know his past. Akbar is also connected to match-fixing."
