Thus, after many days of waiting, the community of VCS finally has information about the decision of the VCS organizers regarding SBTC Esports. Accordingly, SE has officially “disappeared” from the Vietnamese League of Legends scene and the penalty will take effect after the VCS Hoàng Hôn 2023 concludes. At this time, all esports activities of the League of Legends team SE will also be suspended, while their owner has been permanently banned from all activities within tournaments organized by Riot.
Of course, if the parties involved actually engaged in negative behavior, this penalty is entirely justified. In fact, according to many viewers, the VCS organizers could have imposed a harsher penalty, including Global Bans, in order to foster a healthy competitive environment for the Vietnamese League of Legends scene. However, among various opinions, many SE fans have mentioned Teacher Ba – the famous streamer and co-founder of this team.
From the very beginning, SE was seen as a collective of familiar names to VCS fans and long-time close friends of Teacher Ba. At that time, people believed that with the dedication of the male streamer and the proven skills of stars like Zeros, Dia1…, SE would become a force in the VCS.
But then, the penalty for Zeros opened up dark days for SE. They continuously changed their roster each season and it wasn’t until the VCS Hừng Đông 2023 that SE achieved its first result as the runner-up in a VCS season. However, shortly after, SE got involved in troubles related to negative gameplay, leading to the VCS organizers’ penalty, marking the end for “Pink Chickens” in the Vietnamese League of Legends scene.
It is known that currently, Teacher Ba has little to no affiliation with SE aside from the title on his profile page Lol Fandom. However, many comments from the VCS community have mentioned the male streamer following the official announcement from the VCS organizers. The VCS audience is also waiting for statements from Teacher Ba after the recent penalty from VCS – a sentence considered the end for SE in the Vietnamese League of Legends community.
For his part, Teacher Ba has not yet made any statements following the announcement from the VCS organizers. Perhaps the male streamer understands that the current situation is no longer closely related to him. He also needs to share cautiously to avoid impacting himself and the SE brand that he has worked hard to build.
