One of the participants of WESG 2019 reported that the team has not yet received a prize
Ihor MatusDeanocide came to the reddit forum and shared with the public the information that his Alpha Wolfs team, who played at WESG 2019 and finished 4th in the Canadian qualifier, has not yet received their prize money, which should be $ 1,500.
According to him, the victims were not only Alpha Wolfs, but also all other participants in WESG 2019. He also said that he hopes to speed up the process of paying out funds after the publication of the post on reddit.
The Canadian closed qualifying round for WESG 2019 was held from November 2 to 3 last year. The winner was Jackie 'EternaLEnVy' Mao with his teammates from Fighting PandaS.
This is not the first time Alibaba Sports has been caught in non-payment of funds. Earlier, Windigo Gaming, who won at WESG 2018, did not receive their $ 500,000 winnings. Tied into debt obligations, they were forced to close the esports organization.
