For those of you that don't know that NA Team IBuyPower were banned permanently by Valve from all Valve Sponsored events for match-fixing (losing a professional match on purpose for money/csgo skins). Many people including other Professional CS GO Players thought the ban was too rough and that they should have gotten a second chance, but Valve ignored all requests and left them banned. Recently ESL (an organization that organizes Major competitions in which major teams play in) has unbanned IBuyPower. Many people love this idea since Earlier this year ESL has unbanned Cheating Professionals (Professionals that have used hacks, or have been vac banned), but ESL still doesn't like that idea of match-fixing which is why if any player and/or team is caught match-fixing they will be banned from ESL events for 5 years. What are your thoughts on this? do you believe that they should have been unbanned or not?

They're still banned from all valve sponsored events and no serious org will pick them up since they can't go to majors. |

FaceIT and Dreamhack could follow suit with ESL. Dreamhack is owned by the same company that ESL is owned by (This doesn't mean they will unban them) and there has been hints to FaceIT unbanning them. What Caboose said is very true. Big orgs with a chances to make it to a major will not pick them up. DaZeD, Swag, and AZK will probably will play together: https://clips.twitch.tv/GloriousSnappyH ... shCopyThis DaZeD also said this on his last night stream: https://clips.twitch.tv/FrigidCleanGnatNinjaGrumpy Today DaZeD said on stream that a 5 orgs have messaged him: https://clips.twitch.tv/WealthyRefinedHerbsCopyThis ALSO this unban also includes the Epsilon players that were banned. |
