Always be ready to back up your words, and never say something online that you wouldn’t say in person. A major scandal broke out at the PGL Wallachia Season 2 when SoNNeikO and ATF had a physical confrontation. Fortunately, the tournament organizers penalized AVULUS with bonus draft time, and there were no injuries or health damage.

The story goes that ATF is known for his aggressive behavior in online matchmaking. His reputation as a Jordanian player is widely recognized, and frankly, it’s surprising that this incident only escalated to an offline setting now.

The situation has sparked a lot of drama. Team Falcons issued a statement suggesting that AVULUS should have been fully disqualified, as the tournament environment was becoming unsafe. At the same time, there is an alternative opinion, stating that many players have forgotten how to take responsibility for their words and that verbal insults can also cause harm. 

Violence is unacceptable, whether it’s physical contact or verbal abuse. This incident simply highlights the issues that still exist within the current professional Dota 2 community.
