TheOhioBrothers Accused of Piloting in NABA Invitational Match Against BTK
“However, as the game started, it became evident, if we used common sense, that the way Khufra was playing didn’t match Rose’s style. Later, it was discovered that Zia was the gold player, not Cloud. BTK has been playing against these people for years, and they know how each player performs compared to another. They also informed me that something was not right after Game 1 concluded,” he explained.
Faithful expressed disappointment over TOB’s dishonesty, highlighting that transparency could have easily resolved the situation.
“I was disappointed that TOB lied to me when they could have simply been honest, and I would have gladly updated the roster as long as the new players hadn’t played on another team in the tournament, which neither Shark nor Zia had.”, he said.
He emphasized that the investigation into the roster issue would have taken place irrespective of the match outcome, addressing claims made by certain fans that the investigation was biased due to BTK’s loss.
“Regarding the claim that nobody would have looked into it if BTK had won the game, that is a complete lie. Regardless of the outcome, I would have asked TOB to tell me who the new players were after Game 1, based on the gameplay,” the organizer explained.
Faithful clarified that his decision to request a remake of Game 1 was driven by TOB’s misleading communication rather than the inclusion of new players.
“I didn’t request a remake of Game 1 because they added new players, but because they lied to me and the other team about who they had added. All the team captains already know that I adjust my schedule a lot for teams and do everything I can to ensure they can play because I understand that my tournament is small,” he said.
Faithful made another update regarding the investigation, revealing that TOB admitted to the undisclosed roster changes and issued a sincere apology, promising to take necessary steps to ensure this incident doesn’t happen again.
“We would like to inform everyone that TheOhioBrothers (TOB) have come forward and sincerely apologized regarding the roster changes that were done in Game 1 against BloodThirstyKings (BTK). They acknowledge their fault in not providing accurate information about the new players added to their team,” the organizer explained.
