Paparazi unexpectedly commented on the possibility of joining Azure Ray

Zhang "Paparazi" Chengjun, formerly of Xtreme Gaming, has no plans to play for Azure Ray and has completely ruled out any possibility of returning to the professional Dota 2 scene.

The statement from the esports player was posted on the Twitter page of CN Dota In A Nutshell.

"Who said I would return to the professional scene? I'm not even aware of this. Pyw told me that some foreign media wrote that I would resume my career and join Azure Ray, but I never said that. Who started this rumor? It's absolutely over. Are there options for me to return to the professional scene? I don't think so"

He emphasized that fans and the media likely misunderstood his statement about contract discussions. Most likely, he was referring to a streaming career, and Paparazi is not making a return to professional esports.

It's worth noting that Zhao "XinQ" Zixuan had previously warned that Paparazi has no intention of playing on the professional scene as he prefers pub games.
