Koma' stated that he plans to return to the Dota 2 pro scene despite a lifetime ban

Kamil "Koma`" Biktimirov, a Team Spirit streamer, may appear in ESL tournament qualifiers by the end of the year, despite a lifetime ban from Valve.

He mentioned this during a Twitch stream.

"Until December, there's still a year. Right now, I just enjoy streaming, but I'm not against playing in qualifiers, feeling the team spirit, and having fun"

He did not specify which team he would play for, but it seems that he genuinely plans to return to the professional scene in December 2024, as his two-year ban from ESL expires then. However, Valve has not lifted the permanent ban on the player, so he can only participate in ESL tournaments.

Recently, new details emerged about the scandal involving Koma, who received a significant sum of money from Bauyrzhan "lilskrip" Bisembayev without providing an explanation for it.
