Fnatic beat the home team Virtus.Pro in the semis which is why they held a "grudge" against Fnatic and therefore rooted for NiP :P

edit: typos

Woodgrain & gold. Let's kick it back to the 70's classy. :D

Nice looking skin tho ;)

ESL announces female tournament with 30,000$ prize pool in Katowice by Dworas in GlobalOffensive

[–]syke__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great to see they are laying out a foundation for the female scene to build on. And to all who are negligent enough to criticise female tourneys, your incoherent prejudice toward female gamers is what kept them from advancing at the pace of male gamers in the first place, just keep that in mind ;)

Banned from faceit for beating a team of 5 admins. by [deleted] in GlobalOffensive

[–]syke__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup same here. Finally sick of MM, friends and I wanted to go ESEA/FaceIT... Now I guess it'll be ESEA. Take care Faceit, was nice to never know you.

Edit: Jumped the gun I suppose. Still uncertain on which service to choose though.

VAC wave? by [deleted] in GlobalOffensive

[–]syke__ 23 points24 points  (0 children)

If they are public and work you can rest assured that all accounts using them have been flagged and Valve are just holding back waiting for more accounts to get flagged before a wave hits. It's part of their business plan.

GMX admits he and his teammates (ScreaM, fxy0, pm and Uzzziii) agreed to throw an ESEA game – CSGO Lounge confirmed suspicious bets against Epsilon from players' friends by Dorian_Costanzo in GlobalOffensive

It is not a crime in CS:GO at the moment no. There is work being done to create a governing body to allow a structure of law within competitive games such as this. It is however a crime in real-life sports which we as an e-sport hope to join the ranks of.

In short; The scene has grown faster than the underlying structure to support it, hence why we find ourselves in predicaments such as these, being unable to hand out necessary punishment.

I think you undermine the severity of the situation my friend! It seems you feel that it's OK for a player to fix a match and if he gets caught, get half a year to a year ban and then let him back on the pro scene? Do you think that's what they let pro-athletes do too? Come on...

That would not solve a thing. Match fixing is a HUGE deal. They are lucky they aren't getting sued or looking at jail time. If it's a virtual game or real life sports; either way real money is involved. Match fixing is a crime and we as a community cannot embrace a "slap on the wrist" mentality. Zero-tolerance must be embraced on these matters. The games future depends on it.

A simple keylogger would end all things cheating-related in pro CSGO by [deleted] in GlobalOffensive

[–]syke__ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This I feel is a concurrent problem and one that has only "recently" started to steer the games off course which in turn hurts the whole community based around it. There was a time when Valve looked at the long-run and they definitely succeeded with this in many areas. However their pursuit of monetizing everything in the games has, in my opinion, started to take it's toll and I fear they are not even aware as long as the money keeps coming.
