Dota 2 pro PPD calls out \u201ctoxic\u201d player after his old team is eliminated from TI9 ESL\/Valve\/EPICENTERAfter a former Virtus.pro player took to Twitter to rub salt in the wounds of his former team, Ninjas in Pyjamas captain Peter \u2018ppd\u2019 Dager took it upon himself to call out the player on his \u201cpredictable toxicity.\u201d Most of us are past the point where we\u2019re wishing ill will upon our exes. Unfortunately, no one told that to Ilya \u2018Lil\u2019 Ilyuk, a Dota 2 player who currently plays for Winstrike Team, and used to play for Virtus.Pro. Lil played for VP for a number of years across three different stints, and together they won a lot of tournaments and a lot of money. But Lil was kicked for the last time in February 2018, and it seems he\u2019s still upset about it, and thoroughly enjoyed watching his old team exit from The International 2019 early. The full post does not translate very well from Russian to English, but here are some key quotes: \u201cAs you know, Virtus.pro took off from [International] today, taking 9-12th place. I am glad. And I\u2019m glad not that someone won, but someone lost. And the fact that it all finally ended.\u201d \u201cThe day when they kicked me was one of the worst in my life, today is one of the best.\u201d \u201cA year and a half ago, when I heard the news about my breakup with the team while sitting on the bootcamp, the last thing I heard was \u2018We won\u2019t win the Int with you.\u2019 Well, without me you won\u2019t win it either :)\u201d Read more: How to watch The International 2019 – Clearly Lil does not handle his breakups well, which likely explains why \u201cex-VP\/NaVi\u201d is in his Twitter bio. From the rest of the post, it seems like he\u2019s blaming VP for issues with other teams and for his perceived notion of being toxic. But have no fear, NiP captain and former International winner ppd jumped in to administer some extra tough love. Get over it and move on. You posting every time vp struggles is pathetic and predictable. It’s incredibly toxic and it’s no surprise that no one wants to play with you. \u2014 Peter Dager (@Peterpandam) August 21, 2019 Well, I guess that clears that up. Based on some of the reactions seen on Twitter and reddit, this isn\u2019t the first time that Lil has placed the blame on a former team rather than take on the responsibility himself. There\u2019s some consensus that how Virtus.Pro handled things wasn\u2019t great, but Lil hasn\u2019t done himself any favors since that happened. Unfortunately for him, this won\u2019t help his image either, and apart from their woes at The International, Virtus.Pro have been doing more than just fine since kicking him, winning several premier events including two majors. What makes this extra confusing is that he apologized to some of his former teammates earlier this year: . @9pashka @Noone_dota @ramzesdoto @dotaSolo @dvoryrom @LeBronDoTa \u0421\u043e\u0440\u0438, \u043f\u0430\u0440\u043d\u0438, \u0431\u044b\u043b \u043d\u0435 \u043f\u0440\u0430\u0432. \u042f \u0432\u0435\u043b \u0441\u0435\u0431\u044f \u043a\u0430\u043a \u0440\u0435\u0431\u0435\u043d\u043e\u043a, \u0432\u043f\u0440\u0435\u0434\u044c \u0431\u0443\u0434\u0443 \u043c\u0443\u0434\u0440\u0435\u0435. \u2014 Ilya Ilyuk (@LilJke) November 26, 2018 \u201cSorry guys, I was wrong. I acted like a child, I\u2019ll try to be wiser in the future. I\u2019d also like to apologize to everyone I hurt with my words. I wish you all the best.\u201d Why go through all the effort of repairing a bridge just to burn it down again?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
