A few Dota players don't represent the war crimes their president made. However, I want to believe Russians didn't participate because of the war, and how even being a part of Russia makes them look bad right now.

Imagine if your leader started a war and all you wanted to do was play video games and live in peace. Individuals don't represent their country's views, but a group of people from the same country may.

Those players should join another team if at all possible.
