Kassad criticized Valve for its decision to leave BCGame in the Asian region

CS2 analyst Alexander kassad Trifunovic criticized Valve's decision not to exclude BCGame from the Asian region in the qualifying cycle for PGL Major Singapore 2026, despite the team's inconsistency with the conditions. Trifunovic shared his thoughts in X.

Valve just said: Hey Asia, go to hell, we don't care about you. Just bring us more views. And another big hello to Sashi - just to make everything beautiful. Clowning around, no wonder CS is dying. Ten days passed between BCGame and Sashi's moves to Asia. And the rules are different for them. No explanation, nothing. Yes, great... Let's see how long asap lasts after the major.

In September, BCGame signed a third player from the Asian region so as not to compete for an invite to PGL Major Singapore 2026 in Europe. Later, WW Team and Sashi Esport used a similar strategy. However, on October 6, Valve updated the rules for assigning teams to a region - now to transfer you need to play in it for at least three months. The mentioned teams had been playing in Europe up to this point, but on October 8 it became known that BCGame had made an exception and assigned the roster to Asia.
