Somnus unexpectedly wished for his team's defeat at ESL One Kuala Lumpur 2023

Luo 'Somnus`M' Yao, formerly playing for Azure Ray, unexpectedly for everyone, began cheering for the opponents of his own team, BetBoom Team, at ESL One Kuala Lumpur 2023.

The controversial statement from the athlete was published on the CN Dota In A Nutshell Twitter page.

"I want to see what happens when lou and 天命 [Tianming] face BetBoom Team again. They will probably lose the game and once again receive a question mark in all chat. Honestly, it's too pleasant to even think about.

But the only reason I want this to happen is that I know lou and 天命 very well; they know how to create content. But I'll also be happy to see them beat BetBoom Team and send them a question mark in all chat at the end of the game"

However, Somnus`M emphasized that he would also be happy for BetBoom Team victory because, in that case, the audience would witness an epic scene after the match.

Recall that the conflict between Azure Ray and BetBoom Team flared up with new force during The International 2023. When the Chinese team won, they threw a question mark in all chat to humiliate their opponents. It is quite possible that the situation will repeat itself at this tournament.
