Team Paratroopers were a part of the invited teams in TEC Invitational Series wherein after a few matches people got to know that Abhay ‘Xhade’ Urkude was banned by Riot Games. People raised questions and doubts however, the organization requested some time for proper investigation.
Finally, in a recent stream by Mithul ‘Binks69’ Nayak’, Xhade finally came forth and confessed in front of the public and prominent professional players of the Indian Esports Scene. While people expected a genuine reason, tables were turned as he started claiming that he was frustrated because he was not able to reach radiant because of hackers (which still remains unverified).
