Former teammates from FlipSid3 Tactics, Denis "electroNic" Sharipov and Georgiy "WorldEdit" Yaskin, have responded to online reports suggesting a conflict between them that allegedly escalated into a fight. Sharipov and Yaskin recorded a video message stating that there are no disagreements between them.
WorldEdit said: "Hello everyone, dear friends and Counter-Strike fans. We're sitting here with electroNic, having a rest and enjoying some tea. We have no disagreements or grievances with each other; everything is fine. Don't make a mountain out of a molehill."
ElectroNic added: "Yeah, guys, there's a lot of rumours going around. We have no grievances, no conflict at all. We've known each other for a long time, and I hope we continue to communicate just as much."
WorldEdit continued: "Yes, electroNic has always helped me with anything I've asked for. He’s never turned me down. It’s just making a mountain out of a molehill. Take care, everyone. Everything is good."
The first mention of the supposed fight between electroNic and WorldEdit came from insider Alexey "OverDrive" Biryukov. According to him, this incident contributed to the exclusion of Andrey "Xoma" Mironenko from the Virtus.pro Counter-Strike 2 roster, where electroNic currently plays.
