Team Spirit denied Nix's statement about payments within the team

Ilya "Illidan" Pivtsaev, a Team Spirit streamer, denied Alexander "Nix" Levin's words about an allegedly large salary increase for leadership in the Dota 2 ladder, explaining that it was a one-time payment.

He reported this on his Telegram channel:

"Not exactly, they gave money one time for top 1. There was no salary increase"

This is how he commented on Nix's statement that Team Spirit allegedly doubled salaries for achieving first place in the MMR rating. Illidan clarified that there was indeed a cash bonus, but the club did not pay double the salary - it was a one-time incentive.

At the same time, Illidan did not disclose the exact size of the bonus or his salary at the club.

Recall that Nix previously spoke about a huge cash bonus at Team Spirit for fulfilling just one condition.
