Match fixing aftermath: Former Empire player speaks out about recent Dota 2 confessions

The competitive Dota 2 landscape was shaken to its core once again with recent match-fixing confessions of Arslan “Xannii” Shadzhanov. Following the former prodigy’s statements, a former teammate of Xannii, Jamshid “jAM3S” Abdurashitov, also came forward to reflect upon the ripple effects of Xannii’s statements.

In an interview with Escorenews on Aug. 25, Xannii talked about how he gave into the temptations of match-fixing due to struggling with money throughout his professional career. The part that came as a surprise was the fact that Xannii gave up on himself right after signing with a reputable organization, Team Empire, which may have lost the credibility its name holds, according to jAM3S.
