Panto Complained About Insults from NS

Nikita “Panto” Balaganin believes he receives too much unfair hate from media figures, such as the well-known streamer Yaroslav “NS” Kuznetsov.

The player made this statement in an interview with Cybersport.

“I’ve faced a lot of hate throughout my career as an esports player, especially from media personalities. When I was just starting out, people were constantly sending me clips of others trying to take a dig at me or insult me. For example, there’s NS, who seems to have been insulting me my entire career.

But I’m moving forward. Every year, I’m competing more often in major tournaments, and my results are improving. I’m developing not only as a player but also as a drafter and captain—and I’m enjoying every bit of it. Let them sit at home, call me names, and watch me play.”

Acording to Nikita “Panto” Balaganin, hate has folowed the esports player for most of his career, and some media personalities, such as Yaroslav “NS” Kuznetsov, have gone so far as to insult him. Nevertheles, Panto noted that he tries to improve as a player, drafter, and captain, ignoring the criticism.

As a reminder, Nikita “Panto” Balaganin previously spoke out after a match against his former teamates from Team Spirit.
