ATF asks Valve to lift his punishment after winning The International 2025

Ammar “ATF” Al-Assaf, Team Falcons offlaner, asks Valve to make an exception for him and lift his integrity penalty after winning The International 2025.

This request was posted on his X (Twitter) page.

“Hey, Valve. I know I'm a piece of ****, but as the winner of The International 2025, can I get my Dota integrity back to normal?”

The Dota 2 world champion also posted a screenshot of his Commmunication Score, which has dropped to a critical 4938. Because of this, he literally cannot communicate during matches: voice chat is unavailable, and he cannot write messages.

Because of such a harsh punishment, ATF turned to Valve, but it is unlikely that the developers will make an exception for him.

The fact is that even the status of a Dota 2 legend did not help Said “SumaiL” Samail Hassan convince Valve to lift his lifetime ban for cheating.
