Overview
- The punch was captured on the CAGGTUS Leipzig livestream during the awards as MAUschine struck Fabian "Spidergum" Salomon in the face.
- DACH CS Masters banned him for at least 10 years and reported the case to the Esports Integrity Commission, which can impose cross-event bans.
- The blow knocked Salomon’s glasses off on stage, and clips of the incident spread widely on social media.
- Spidergum later downplayed the assault in a post on X but indicated he may file a report.
- Clips shared on social media point to in-game taunts such as "papi chulo" as possible context, though no motive has been confirmed.
