Following an incident between SoNNeikO and ATF, PGL imposed a Penalty Level 3 on AVULUS during their series against the Falcons.

The Falcons continue to be the center of attention at PGL Wallachia Season 2 – but not because of their performance and play.

The event started on Friday with a bit of drama, after Nigma Galaxy were forced to forfeit their series with the Falcons, handing the Falcons a free win.

Now, they will get an advantage when it comes to champion selection in the upcoming series against AVULUS.


Although details of the incident have not been revealed, it appears that the incident took place directly in the hotel lobby.



According to rumors and sources, the brawl was the result of Ammar "ATF" Al-Assaf flame Akbar "SoNNeikO" Butaev during pub matches a few months ago. SoNNeikO then reacted that he would punch ATF if he met at LAN. Apparently they met and had some kind of conflict.


Penalty level 3 will deduct 110 seconds of AVULUS bonus time during champion select, and will be applied throughout the entire series.


Currently, AVULUS is dominating and both teams are at the top of the table with a record of 2:0. AVULUS is an interesting mix of new and veteran players from both Eastern and Western Europe – most notably SoNNeikO. This random squad won the championship at CCT Series 2 under the name Team Tea, and have come far since then.


There are three more series of matches to take place today.


• Team Waska vs Infinity Live 

• Heroic vs Tundra Esports 18:00 CEST

• beastcoast vs Apex Genesis 18:00 CEST
