StingeR refutes rumors of drinking at Lima Major: "I returned without consuming anything that could affect my performance or change my schedule"
2023-02-28 10:51:00Beastcoast captain Steven "StingeR" Mamani answered his critics after fans spotted him visiting a local bar before the deciding day of the Lima Major group stage. On social media, he claimed that he was sober and went to sleep relatively early.
According to StingeR, he went to the bar to visit someone who was celebrating a birthday. He said he wanted to support a person who had had a rough time lately. In the end, StingeR apologized for his actions, which caused harsh criticism towards him and the team.
I returned to the hotel without consuming anything that could affect my performance or change my schedule. I went to sleep around 2:00 AM. At 1:30, Tito asked me for melatonin to sleep and I went to his room to give him the gummies that I bought last year on his recommendation from my old manager.
Beastcoast had a poor performance on the last day of the group stage and advanced to the lower bracket of playoffs. They will play against Entity or Evil Geniuses. In the latter case of home derby, one of the local teams will leave the playoffs in the first round.
