ESL removed Sadokist from the Rio Major 2022 due to an incident
Sadokist did not appear for commentating on day one of Legends Stage and replaced with Anders "⁠Anders⁠" Blume for the rest of the tournament.

Matthew "Sadokist" Trivett was part of IEM Rio Major 2022's broadcast talent team. Surprisingly he was missing from the tournament on day one of the Legends Stage. According to the Dust2.us reports, the Canadian commentator has been removed from the talent lineup at IEM Rio Major due to an incident that occurred yesterday night. ESL (the gaming organization conducting the IEM Rio Major) replaced him with Anders "⁠Anders⁠" Blume.

On Saturday, Sadokist did not appear for commentating on day one of Legends Stage. He has been commentating from the beginning of the Brazilian Major. In Sadokist's absence, Anders was seen with his usual partner commentator Moses,

ESL stated to Dust.us: "We can confirm that an incident took place last night involving Sadokist. As a result of this, Anders has stepped in to commentate for the remainder of the tournament. We have no further comments and would like the focus to remain on the competition."
