CS:GO Scandal Continues! 37 Coaches Banned Due To Abusing Coach Bug

About a month ago, CS:GO scene was stunned by the bans of Nicolai “HUNDEN” Petersen, Ricardo “dead” Sinigaglia, and Aleksandr “MechanoGun” Bogatyrev, which were all accused due to using a bug, allows you to watch a random point in the map, to gain unfair advantages during the matches.

While the drama was continuing, some of the coaches like former Ninjas In Pyjamas coach Faruk “pita” Pita and Mousesports’ Allan “Rejin” Petersen confessed that they used this bug back in the days and apologized from the scene.

Today, Esports Integrity Commission has announced that they decided to ban 37 coaches for abusing this bug. ESIC stated that they only viewed %20 of the demos, and the investigations are still ongoing until October.

Here is the statement from ESIC:

“We understand that these revelations have been tough for many people within the CS:GO community, but we believe it is in the long term best interests of the game and all of esports for integrity breaches to be dealt with head on.

We know that most coaches, players, tournament organisers, publishers and developers, fans, sponsors and broadcasters want CS:GO and esports to be clean and a fair competition between players and teams doing their very best to win. We see our job as being to ensure that that happens and that corrupt and bad actors are rehabilitated or removed.”
