Hiko called the whole situation unfair and stated that the admins had some personal grudges against because of the incident against Immortals. He offered his reaction to the competitive ruling, which has caused them to shell out $ 5k as a fine.

I just thought it was funny that mob mentality that is Twitter, where everyone was against us and coach, and then all of a sudden everyone is for us and our coach. Twitter and the internet, it’s just I don’t know, I am not a big fan, not a big fan.”
