Aleksandar “kassad” Trifunovic has ignited debate across the Counter-Strike scene after posting a strongly worded message on X in which he claimed that corruption and incompetence in esports have reached unprecedented levels. However, the Serbian analyst’s vague statement quickly led to criticism and sarcastic reactions from players and community members, many of whom demanded more specifics.
kassad: “Corruption, nepotism and incompetence are at the highest level ever”
In a post published on June 18, kassad expressed frustration with the current state of esports and suggested that dishonest behavior has become normalized.
Level of corruption, nepotism and incompetence in esports have reached the highest level ever.
He continued by saying that honesty and transparency may bring respect from like-minded people, but ultimately offer little reward.
Cheat, steal, lie, be fake and you are good.
Although the message attracted attention, kassad did not mention any organizations, tournaments, or individuals, leaving fans to speculate about what exactly prompted his comments.
