Maybe it’s even worth adding a little racism towards some countries - SumaiL on the development of e-sports

Kerry Nigma Galaxy Said 'SumaiL' Samail Hassan, as part of the All Chat podcast, shared a story about a conflict in public with a former professional player YYF, after which Chinese fans wrote him angry messages, and also reflected on the development of e-sports.

Said 'SumaiL' Samail Hassan

This guy... well, it was, I think, The Shanghai Major 2016. I played public with YYF, and at that time there were no special tags for pro players, so it was not very clear who was who. And he played just awful. Honestly, he was *** [damn] bad. He was feeding and I just said, “Pink, you're so terrible. You suck [very much].” However, it turned out that he streamed it to 40 thousand people in China. And they got mad at me. They thought I was disrespecting their legend, even though I had no idea who it was. I mean, if I knew, then of course I wouldn’t say that. But yes, he played really poorly.

In short, we lose this major, I'm flying home. Twitter didn't work in China back then due to VPN problems, and I didn't even open it. I arrive, and on the plane I feel very bad. I go out and write: “*** [Fuck] China.” I don’t know why, I was about 17, I was just *** [on edge]. Why did I even tweet this? It’s not that I hated China, but that’s how it turned out.

Earlier, Nigma Galaxy carry Said 'SumaiL' Samail Hassan told why he now plays in the first position and talked about what it’s like to experience the moment of takeoff in his career.
