[@Klepske]

Gla1ve, Xyp9x, Bubzkji, Lucky, K0nfig. Thinking they will lose Magisk and Dupreeh after the major when their contracts are up. On Heroic's stratbook, that's almost certainly Heroic intellectual property. It's common for any organisation that deals in IP rights in the form of written documents to *protect* these assets legally. Even if it's just there in the contract and hard to legally pursue in a court. If it's not in the contract, it's not in the contract (and the Hunden contract becomes utterly stupid and weak). To assume it isn't, is asinine. Those files were not *his* and for a heap of other reasons this is morally reprehensible

[@НадеждаУстинова-е1ы]

I can understand dupreeh can go to nip for example, or to col to play with es3, but why would magisk leave, he is probably second best player right now in astralis after dupreeh

Even though I really like how Astralis played in 18 and 19, I doubt they'll make it that far given the fact that they don't have a top-tier Awper on their rooster. The same goes for G2. My top 3 would be Navi, Vitality and Gambit. Because they all have a top-tier Awper and at least 1 superstar-like rifler to support them. Once top awpers catch on fire, they are really hard to stop, even by top riflers. The real dark horses for me would be VP and NIP.

As much as I want, how much I like cadian as a player or person, to affect my opinion on this situation, I can't deny that regardless of what proof is available, it's very obvious that these players knew what was happening. They deserve some kind of punishment, even if one isn't officially handed.

@@svirv Hunden released evidence showing cadian setting up the camera before a match and chat logs of niko basically saying everyone on the team knew

[@marhin7520]

@@DuckoftheDraw link?

[@svirv]

@@DuckoftheDraw by _setting up the camera_, you mean someone boosted HUNDEN in a position? [A] It was Teses. His explanation sounds completely plausible: that his focus was on warming up to the match about to start. He didn't question Hunden's request because his focus was away, and no thought of "your credible coach is about to cheat, and you should investigate or deny the boost" entered his mind when HUNDEN asked for a boost. [B] If no, you mean something else by Cadian, pls explain/link? About niko's quote, based on the context of the conversation and other evidence, it is very likely niko was manipulated into saying something untrue. Far, far more likely than this quote being truthful, and the context and other evidence being bullshit, and a big conspiracy behind. This is the conclusion of people who digged this case.

[@svirv]

@@DuckoftheDraw P.S. The only "ugly" in my opinion: Cadian and stavn were notified post-match that Hunden cheated in Heroic's loss to Astralis. The fact they didn't disclose it to anyone else and were complicit in their reaction (other than saying "strong words against cheating" between themselves), in my opinion, deserves a form of penalty. Because their inaction allowed this to potentially continue (and continue it did), and allowed Hunden to get away with first solved murder. Especially for Cadian who's a grown adult and is well versed in the industry (pretty sure 18-y.o. stavn was torn and just went along with Cadian's measures - lack of measures). To leave it completely behind closed doors and to continue like nothing happened? What kind of message this sends to the guilty coach?.. Shady. In my opinion, definitely deserves a penalty for Cadian and stavn, although not as severe as for cheating.

[@Josh_MartheLMP]

I'm a little surprised that Cadian came on to address the situation. I don't think he did himself or his team many favors by commenting on it. ESIC ruled in the teams favor and were super lenient towards them and he could just be giving them more evidence to make a new decision in light of what he said on here. Especially with the whole thing about the team knowing that Hunden cheated but not taking it anywhere. It's a weird angle to say to basically say "Valve won't respond, so why even bother?" You have to say something and show good faith in at least acknowledging what is going on and saying "This isn't right". Beyond that, the Niko situation is a huge mess. I get that he has some things in play that influence his ability to discern what's happening, but cheating is pretty clear. You knew your coach cheated and didn't do anything. There has to be some kind of a ban for that in light of how everything else was handled. ESIC's punishment system is super weird given how Ian responded to the question. How is there no problem for players knowing about cheating and not reporting it but Furia's coach Guerri had 1 round where the bug happened, he didn't even benefit from it and got slapped with a 3 month ban? This whole catastrophe gets more weird and messy with every bit of info that comes out.

[@zagonialpar9208]

Regarding the Hunden cheating situatian... There are some important comments here to mention. These players are really young, without the life experience and general mental toughness and well learned ability to judge different situations in life. This is a big general problem here. Internet hatred in this type of situation can be really really draining and though. It fucks up your self confidence. Especially when you do not yet have the life experience that helps you build a strong coping mechanism and good and healthy way of dealing with things and handleing adversity. They are genuinely affected. Apart from Cadian who is a more experienced individual (still put in a really though situation) the other guys are basically young kids who do not yet have built the experience and self confidence for themselves that you guys already have. And we are asking them to be professionals. On the other hand it is only fair to ask this as they are well paid professionals. This does not just mean to play well and grind and collect the paycheck and when shit happens you come out as the victim (which to be fair they actually are victims in a way). It also means that you have to stand up for the reputation, and competitive integrity that you have built trough the years from a really really young age. The players and the org tried to brush this under the rug at their respective time and did not stand up at the time for their own competitive integrity and they did not handle it professionally therefore even when they come out like this, it makes it hard for them to win back their credibility. Make no mistake, I am a fan, I support them, I think they are a good team and good guys, I want them to succeed. But they have to learn from this and understand what it means to really be a professional. You can't just try to not tell anyone. You have to speak up at that exact time and stand up and say that this has been used and that this should be punished accordingly. That is professional. Standing up in time for yourself before you are already presiurized by others. I support them, but they were fucked over and than they handled this really badly. To come back to my earlier point. There is a conflict in understanding what it means to be a professional, asking young kids to be professional before they have the capability to do so. But at the end of the day obviously it is only fair to ask that when they have a good contract with a good payday. WE ALL HAVE TO LEARN FROM THIS !!!

[@screechdrummer]

I'm glad someone has a nuanced opinion on this. I feel bad for them, it really sucks to be put into this situation without having the experience to deal with it. But at the same time, most people start their careers at the same age (20-25); if they don't act professionally, they bear the consequences. It sucks, but they have to suck it up. Just the way the world works unfortunately.

Why doesn’t CS do a regional league system And everyone plays each other 2/3 times in a “season” using the new short version of the game in a BO3. Then the top 5/10 players with the most points, from each region, at the end of the season, go through to the bigger tournament, just like they to in “conventional” sports. And the rest of the teams who didn’t get through, start their player brake early, then once all the tournaments are finished, then everyone has a break. If we have leagues, this gives traditional tier 2/3 teams the ability to play the top teams, in regions that are a little light in teams, so we could have an EMEA, APAC, LATAM and NA leagues. 100 points for a win 50 for a draw 25 for a loss And the bottom 3 teams get relegated and gives lower tier teams the ability to move up. All these leagues can be played online and then Lan for the major tournaments.
