WePlay Esports clarified the situation of the incident with ceh9

WePlay Esports clarified the situation of the ceh9 incident. General producer of the tournament organizer Maxim Belonogov commented on the situation with the cancellation of the caster's accreditation for PGL Major Stockholm 2021. He stated that the studio had an agreement with the commentator that during the work at the championship ceh9 should not create content for competitors.

There is a transparent accreditation system for sports or esports events. And PGL Major Stockholm 2021 is no exception. Any representative of a studio, print publication, content-maker can organize his trip to the event, obtain accreditation, and plan content creation. And the situation with Arseny is no exception.

At the request of Parimatch, WePlay Esports provided Arseny with comfortable working conditions at the venue. This is players' hotel accommodation and press accreditation as a member of the WePlay Esports film crew.

On our part, there was an agreement with Arseniy: during work, to completely refrain from any work for competitors and third parties. Arseny could shoot content either for personal channels or for a partner's company. This has not been done.

As part of this tournament, we do not have any working relationship with Arseniy Trinozhenko, so we cannot "break the contract" or "ban him at the event".

We consider it the right decision not to associate Arseniy with the WePlay Esports film crew, and accordingly asked to return the WePlay accredited badge to the organizers

Recall that a former professional CS: GO player who is now engaged in streaming activities and is a commentator for the Maincast studio, Arseniy "ceh9" Trinozhenko lost his accreditation for PGL Major Stockholm 2021. The network suggested that this is due to the recording of several Instagram stories from the site the championship for the Maincast channel.
