Team Liquid was fined at BetBoom Dacha Dubai 2024, - NS

Team Liquid allegedly received a penalty for violating tournament regulations, and they might lose around 30 seconds of draft time at BetBoom Dacha Dubai 2024.

This information was shared by Yaroslav "NS" Kuznetsov during a Twitch broadcast.

"We received news that Team Liquid got a level one penalty in the draft for some violation of tournament regulations. This is supposed to be 30 seconds. Maybe the team was late for the match. You're supposed to be ready for everything in 30 minutes. If you didn't come... Maybe for that. Maybe for something else. No details"

According to NS, this will lead to a small penalty on the first or second map, but the exact details are currently unknown. Nevertheless, NS believes that it will have little impact on the actual game.

"But on the first map or some other, Liquid will have a small penalty in the draft. However, it usually doesn't affect the game much"

The tournament organizers or representatives from Team Liquid have not commented on the situation yet. It's worth noting that a similar situation occurred at The International 2023 when 9 Pandas were penalized for being late.

Recall that Team Liquid previously surprised everyone with the unexpected change in the team's captain.
