Despite all the support they’ve received after winning the $1 million CS:GO tournament IEM Katowice on Sunday, Feb. 12, and becoming the best team in the world, members of G2’s CS:GO team have been facing backlash this week after it came to light that they refused to take a photo next to a Ukrainian flag brought by CS:GO and VALORANT caster Denys “d3str0” Zabarnyi.
Some radical fans were quick to deem G2 as pro-Russia in the context of the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine, especially because the team took a photo with a fan holding up a Russian flag during their stay in Abu Dhabi for the BLAST Premier World Final in December, which drew criticism from Ukrainian superstar s1mple at the time.
