Vasilii's livestream on October 26 captured him assaulting his then-girlfriend. After the incident, Vasilii was fired from his professional team, Newbee, and subject to an investigation launched by Riot.

The conclusion of that investigation was announced yesterday. Riot say that Vasilii's behaviour was "beyond the worst kinds of extreme misconduct that we originally had in mind when we devised the Global Penalty Index," the company's official punishment system.
