It's on their social media accounts.

maybe zjk fanboys hacked donic social media account

but seriously speaking, butterfly removed him when he had his scandals
so i won't be surprised he is pissed off.
Donic must have paid a lot of money to get him

 

[Kopp]

I'm not surprised if he changed his nationality.

I noticed the German Butterfly shop pulling his blade from sale after the most recent scandal, but they put it back and he kept wearing Butterfly apparel in all of his coaching streams. Maybe it wasn't that bad?

Bruh, how’s this gonna help donic increase sales?
They got a long time retired scandalous non-relevant ex pro who never used Donic in his life before. (And will not matter if he does now)

After Dima jumped ship to Butterfly, Donic has been needing another famous John to put a name back on their own Viscaria clone

Money is always the key.

Looks cool. What will be ZJK's official Donic setup? Bluegrip C2 on FH? Bluestorm on BH?

lol no and why would that matter? he doesn’t compete anywhere at all anymore

I'd reckon a ZJK Donic blade would be significantly more affordable than a Butterfly one. Good news for ZJK fans

If Donic were capable of producing blades of the same high quality as Butterfly, I wager they would price them higher.

The news (rumor at the time) has been discussed for a few days over at Tieba. It's said there are 4 players who have lifetime sponsorship with Butterfly - KLH (or RSM), Boll, ZJK and Mizutani. Not sure what will happen after this.

It's said his contract was renewed in 2021. The fact that he's not been charged could mean an out-of-court settlement, insufficient evidence or both.

Donic blades are made from different sources. One of them being soulspin. They are of no less quality than others. Nittaku is also using soulspin.

All the accusations about Zhang Jike are fake, as proven a while back not long ago. Donic would never sign him otherwise. He is still the most respected and popular player amongst fans.
