its because they dont want to represent themselves as russian due to the conflict, its just personal preference, they are russian regardless of non-representing or not
also yeah, the guy above said navi, its a Ukrainian org so maybe they were forced to due to backlash from Ukrainian fanbase
thats basically what i said, navi forcing them to not represent themselves as russians due to the org being Ukrainian and the fanbase as well. I assume if they continued using russian flag, the org would be criticized
If you are in navi, you are pretty much obligated to give up on ru flag, although it is case for some non-ua EU orgs (alliance, gg in apex, for example)
the navi as an org-angle could be one but strange that electronic and perfecto still had russia flags up to when they left the team, which was a couple months ago
