CEO of GAM Sparks Controversy Within VCS Community
Recently, GAM Esports achieved a remarkable victory against TALON, securing their position as the second seed from the APAC region for MSI 2025. This win was unexpected, as prior to the match, few believed that GAM could triumph. Although TALON initially pressured GAM, pushing them into a tight spot, the members of GAM managed to capture stunning moments during the match. The GAM CEO also made a bold statement shortly after, leading to intense discussions within the community.

According to reports, the bold statement made by CEO TK Nguyen did not include the contributions of Duong Gia Aress, leaving many surprised. Despite his underwhelming performance, Aress is still considered a key player for the team and has played a significant role in GAM’s journey through the Mid-Season 2025 stage. However, all other members of GAM demonstrated impressive teamwork.

On various platforms, numerous fans have voiced their concerns regarding VCS’s performance when Aress is not in play. Moreover, there are growing suspicions that after MSI 2025, GAM’s support line might undergo significant changes. In the recent match against TALON, Aress was absent at crucial moments. Before that, when Aress was deployed with Azir (Game 3), GAM faced a tough defeat against TSW, losing crucial points.

Future of GAM’s Star Players Looks Uncertain
It can be said that since joining GAM, Aress has yet to fully meet expectations. However, the pressure is mounting, and with each game, the stakes are becoming higher for this team. There is a growing sentiment among fans that Aress may not be fully compatible with GAM in the long run, especially given the increasing pressure and scrutiny he faces.
No one is quite sure about the underlying reasons for the controversy surrounding the GAM CEO’s statements, but the future seems to hold a mix of uncertainty and potential changes for Aress and the team as they navigate forward.
