Both Ukrainians perform on the professional stage in the same team with the Russians, so they are forbidden to compete in Ukrainian tournaments under the auspices of the organization and represent the country at international competitions, according to the CQ portal.

Similar measures were taken against Counter-Strike: Global Offensive esports players Miroslav zont1x Plahoti and Igor w0nderful Zhdanov, who also play in a team with Russian players.

It is noted that UESF has no influence on the organizers of major Dota 2 and CS:GO tournaments, and esports players will be able to continue to perform at top events without restrictions. If one of the players wants to return to Ukraine, they will not be able to get entry to international competitions.

Earlier, the Russian Dota 2 team Team Spirit became the winner of the international Riyadh Masters tournament in Riyadh.
