Your naughty child is misbehaving again

The manager of the Eastern European team BetBoom Team, Luka "Lukawa" Nasuashvili, publicly addressed World Team Falcons' coach, Kurtis "Aui_2000" Ling, demanding action be taken regarding the behaviour of Ammar "ATF" Al-Assaf. Nasuashvili posted a screenshot showing the Jordanian player making physical threats towards Gleb "kiyotaka" Zyryanov during a matchmaking game in Dota 2.

Lukawa stated, "Hi, Aui_2000! I don’t have Twitter, but I’m sure this message will reach you! After the recent events in Bucharest [the conflict between ATF and SoNNeikO], which taught everyone a big lesson, your unruly player is misbehaving again. I expect a public apology from you to my player, along with some actions. Teach Ammar some manners if no one has done so yet. I also ask all tournament organisers to take note of this. The trend of public threats is crossing all boundaries."

Aui_2000 responded by acknowledging the situation: "I talked with Lukawa and fully agree that such language has no place on the professional scene. Apologies for this situation; it is unacceptable."

Lukawa later updated on his Telegram channel, mentioning that the issue had been resolved with Aui_2000: "UPD. Ammar apologised to Gleb privately, but that doesn’t change the gravity of the situation. UPD2. We talked with Aui, and he agreed with everything; the matter is settled between us. If he wishes to write something publicly, it’s up to him; I’m not insisting."

ATF called one of his opponents a "bot" during a match against Xtreme Gaming from China in the second group stage of DreamLeague Season 24.
