ESL has officially removed the Canadian CSGO commentator Matthew “Sadokist” Trivett from the IEM Rio Major talent lineup. He will no longer be able to take part in the Brazil Major.

According to sources, ESL took this decision after Sadokist went into an altercation in the hotel while being under influence which called for the emergency service.

We can confirm that an incident took place last night involving Sadokist. As a result of this, Anders has stepped in to commentate for the remainder of the tournament. We have no further comments and would like the focus to remain on the competition.

However, Sadokist didn’t comment anything regarding this incident.

Surprisingly, Sadokist was missing from the first day of IEM Rio Major while the popular CSGO caster Anders Blume took over his duty and started casting with Jason “moses” O’Toole. Previously, Anders was working as a Skybox telestrator.

This is not the first time for Sadokist. He was involved in another incident a few years ago. In 2018, Sadokist got banned by Twitch due to inappropriate behavior and the use of racial slurs.
