Subhash Bedia used the nickname Hitler while his team was called Aryan. He was banned from participating in the Esports World Cup. On July 17, the player apologized on Instagram (the service is owned by Meta, which is recognized as an extremist organization and banned in Russia):

"I sincerely apologize for my past esports ID, I apologize to anyone I may have hurt. The nickname was crude, harmful, used without proper understanding of the historical pain associated with the name. I did not intend to offend or glorify evil. I have changed my ID to Henry. Thank you to everyone who made me aware of the necessity of this. In the future, I will strive to be more mindful and respectful".

India Today Gaming reports that the nickname Hitler is used to refer to very strict people in India. In the country, there is a small taboo on using the name Hitler.

The name of the team that Subhash Bedia is part of has also changed — from Aryan to AxTMG (Team Modern Gaming).
