May 6, 2022 ESIC has confirmed the identities of the three coaches that will be suspended for the CS:GO Major in Antwerp
The Esports Integrity Commission's lengthy investigation into coaches exploiting a spectator bug in CS:GO has uncovered two new "variants" of the bug, and the body will be issuing charges affecting dozens of coaches "imminently". In a statement providing context ahead of the release of the punishments, ESIC also says that provisional suspensions have been handed out to three coaches that were meant to be involved with the CS:GO Antwerp Major, which kicks off in a few days time.
ESIC's first wave of punishments happened in September 2020, where 37 CS:GO coaches were handed bans ranging from four months to three years. At the time, ESIC said that only 20% of the 15.2 terabytes of evidence it had collected had been examined. It now seems the investigation is about to finally conclude.
In its May 5 statement, ESIC says that it has identified a total of three different spectator bug variants - a "static" bug, a "third-person" view bug, and a "free roam" bug which allows full movement around the map when triggered. The latter is being deemed as the most serious, and due to its efficacy, ESIC deems this as a form of cheating and will punish guilty parties with tougher measures. It says that only three coaches have been found to have experienced and used this bug.

For Counter-Strike: Global Offensive fans, sticker day is just like Christmas.

From legendary players like Oleksandr 's1mple' Kostyliev to contenders like Pavel 's1ren' Ogloblin , there's a sticker for everyone. And by picking up a team logo or autograph capsule today through the store, you too can have a chance of owning one - after all, 50% goes to the players, teams, and organisations involved.
