Since the recent ban regarding TNC Predator and the Chongqing Major, it escalated a lot of drama in the e-sports scene. Due to the uproar, it made Kuku leave the e-sports scene temporarily to overlook the situation. The team faced their ups and downs due to a lot of changes such as when the team unsuccessfully qualify in the recent Dream League 2019 Major Sea Qualifier, their inconceivable loss to Team Admiral in the Starladder Imba TV Minor Open Qualifier, and their numerous opt- outs in some tournaments due to schedule conflicts. Also, the Professional gamer Michael “ninjaboogie” Ross’s leaving in the Filipino squad affected their roster greatly.
Following the publication of the WESG statement, they confirmed that Kuku can’t enter in Chongqing for the tournament. The Dota 2 community has been disappointed over Valve’s choice to lie. There are calls to action even going to the extent of moving TI9 out of Shanghai.

With all these scandals, it instilled a hatred between the Chinese community and other gamer in the dota 2 community. This ban only ignites an argument on both parties without considering how Valve receive their revenues through these people. Valve should step in and create an official statement for these dramas to end it once and for all.
