Professional players, their managers, and teams’ organization staff, should under no circumstances gamble on CS:GO matches, associate with high volume CS:GO gamblers, or deliver information to others that might influence their CS:GO bets. Therefore we will be directing our CS:GO event partners to not allow any of the following individuals’ participation in any capacity in Valve-sponsored events: We can confirm, by investigating the historical activity of relevant accounts, that a substantial number of high valued items won from that match by Duc “cud” Pham were transferred ( via Derek “dboorn” Boorn ) to iBUYPOWER players and NetCodeGuides founder, Casey Foster.Īll together, the information we have collected and received makes us uncomfortable continuing any involvement with these individuals. The details are in this DailyDot article: Recently, allegations of match fixing in the Cevo Season 5 match between iBUYPOWER and came to our attention. We sincerely hope that we won’t have to issue more in the future. While bans can be disruptive and painful to some members of the community, they are sometimes necessary. We will continue to take whatever action we think is necessary to protect the entertainment value created by professional Counter-Strike, including, on occasion, terminating our relationship with individuals who have demonstrated a willingness to exploit their fans’ faith in the integrity of the sport. To clarify, the bans for these players are permanent, and players proven to have taken part in match-fixing will be permanently banned.Īs the scene grows, it’s an unfortunate reality that some individuals will seek opportunities to take advantage of their fans. Our decision was to ban these players indefinitely from involvement in Valve-sponsored events. To ensure that the highest level of competition continues to entertain, that integrity can never be called into question.īack in January and early February 2015 we took action after we discovered that a small number of professional CS:GO players were engaged in match-fixing.
The audience’s trust in the integrity of the sport has allowed it to grow to the point where it entertains millions of fans. Professional Counter-Strike is very important to us and to our community.
