  • Today we'll talk about AKUMA, a ukranian team that was supposedly cheating during ESIC CIS Spring League in 2021. We'll look into akuma vs navi and akuma vs gambit matches, and discuss their potential cheating situation. The team wasn't proven guilty, but the infamous reputation sticked to them. They still suffer from such cheater image - today I'll tell you what happened in 2021 and how the players are doing in 2022

    It’s very weird whenever you quit something when you are accused of cheating, specially in a game where it makes you wanna get better and better. Since it just seems like you cheated and just didn’t want to anymore because of outside factors like guilt, I would’ve stood my ground if I were legit and kept playing the same to prove that I’m just good

    Yeah the eye movement seems too big for just glancing at the minimap. Minimap isn't actually that far from the crosshairs, and there's no reason to keep checking like that. You're usually checking to see where your teammates are, or looking reactively if you notice an enemy red dot pop up on it

    l like stories about pro gamers in competitive games behind the scenes,their exercise process,their spirit mental.although l only play sc2 as a causal player,l still like to hear other pro in other term games.

    This was very interesting, thanks for reporting about it. I do like how the one guy who was the loudmouth about navi not preparing well ended up looking the worst of them all lol. He probably knew he would never be in that position ever again so wanted to make the best of it.
    Not to be any sort of -ist about it, but eastern European teams do seem to have a more liberal feeling towards considering cheating. Its probably related to the culture of bribery, organized crime and law blending together, lower living standard and job opportunities, (which could all be shortened to "being a post communist state") if they can supplement their money with some fixed betting, that's future financial security. If you might lose your career tomorrow because you dont play well enough, then you better score big today before you have to go back to making 2% of what you are right now and kicking yourself.
    I know that's cynical and I don't want to be biased against people from that region, they have many very good players that want to be involved in honest competition and prove they're the best because they have the skills and dedication to do it.

    Is their coach the same coach that was managing Rocket this RMR? Like Emiya was banned for cheating in Faceit and he did even igl which was also forbidden lmao

    Accusations? Bro stop defending cheaters. Every decent players csgo players knows what they did during crucial rounds, random pushes was not normal and fluke happens once not across 5 maps

      What are you talking about though? He didnt defend them at all. He reported responsibly because there was no conviction or hard evidence, but repeatedly said that the community, casters and professionals all were sure they were cheating and why.
      His channel is designed to report on things factually, and he did. They were never formally convicted but in the court of public opinion they are tarnished, and he made that very clear. The events were recounted as even handedly as possible along with a continual status of what the professional and social implications and viewpoints were. He cant just make things up because of your feelings. Well, be could, but it would make him bad at this so i'm very glad he doesnt.
      When people are aggressively self assured and stupid.... what a combination.

      @@booradley6832 go into the scene and you will know whats what. As an example if a trader in a market does not provides good services and is dodgy at times people simply avoid him, there is a need of investigation but it takes time/maybe you dont get hard evidence/maybe even no investigation, sadly people who were cheated know it and avoid that trader. Its the same as when the coaching bug hit the scene or when pro team refuse to scrim akuma cuz they were stupid and were recording the games for some reason, a lot of things go on behind the scene, you cant police everything. :)
