Team Spirit faced an unexpected setback as Myroslav "Mira" Kolpakov received a Steam account ban just before the MOUZ match. Forced to improvise, Mira played using their manager Dmitry "Korb3n" Belov's account, attributing the defeat against MOUZ to communication issues rather than the account problem.
Despite the setback, Team Spirit managed to compete in their opening match. Korb3n later clarified in a Twitch livestream that Mira's ban was a community ban, not a VAC ban, and was part of a larger wave of similar bans affecting multiple users that day.
He stated “We contacted people close to Valve, explained the situation that Mira couldn't play from his smurf. Because smurfs are prohibited. As a result, we agreed that he would play this game from my account, so I provided them with my Steam ID. It was official. So, an official match from someone else's account.”
