[Rivitur]

Oh boy there is a major inventory moving going on in the pro scene... Check peoples inventories they are moving skins. (Tabsens says empty)

 

[KingKong]

if inventory says 0 items and is blank its just private btw

 

[Clydefrog]

If kennyS is affected - my heart will be broken forever. My favourite player :/ Apparently he emptied his inventory? >__>

Was about to post this. Lol he traded everything he could.

Damnit I should have gone with kioshima on my VACation bingo card (I went with JW, Scream, and bayali)

 

[phantomspiker]

Kioshima's twitter was hacked on now it's gone.

 

[soultron]

Holy shit. This is hilarious and sad at the same time. It might need a dedicated thread in Gaming soon, my friends.

Yeah, this is probably new thread worthy for sure. The major is just a week away.

 

[Rivitur]

Yup...
http://www.hltv.org/news/13642-titan-epsilon-disqualified-from-dhw

To replace the two French teams, a LAN qualifier will take place this weekend at Inferno Online Stockholm with four teams in attendance, all of them being flown by Valve itself

Shit just got real!

 

[Xizk]

Cmon 3DMAX. Suomi! Wonder who will take their place. Hoping for 3DMax + Mouz.

 

[Sajjaja]

But I like our little circle jerk going on here.

 

[MayMay]

Noooooo my favourite team (Titan) disqualified. Now I dont have a reason to watch DHW anymore :L

 

[KingKong]

Yup...
http://www.hltv.org/news/13642-titan-epsilon-disqualified-from-dhw

Shit just got real!

Hmm so Valve knows this is over? Otherwise why do this if like 3 other teams could get dqed

 

[Odah]

0 items ? doesnt mean that he emptied his inventory. only that his profile is on private. kennyS could still be legit

You're just trying to prove to everyone that Queen is your favourite team, but I see you for who you really are >

omg damn you lol

Cloud9 babyyy.

From shox's twitter:

Titan, Epsilon ... Please.... NOT LDLC .....

Unless 3 people in the remaining teams get vacced there is no reason for a DQ of the remaining teams...

It is odd that the two team who qualified with 3/5 of the original lineups are the first to get the vac.

 

[soultron]

Yup...

Wow, class move by Valve. These bans had the potential to really destroy this major, so it's great they're being patched over by having more qualifiers.

Is there a chance that, moving forward, fresh PCs with "tournament" Steam profiles might be used?

Any cfgs like keybindings, viewmodel settings, and so on would be sent to tournament organizers and loaded onto the LAN PCs?

I think that isolating the profiles from Steam cloud would help, if that's where the exploit and vulnerabilities lay?

BUT WHAT ABOUT THE SKINS? NO ONE WOULD BE ABLE TO TALK ABOUT KENNYS MAGIC STICK IF HE DOESNT HAVE IT.

 

[Omega]

lmao this shit is nuts

i don't even wanna go to sleep, i feel like im gonna miss some breaking news

 

[Haribi]

Scream said earlier in his stream today that Kioshima is someone he could imagine being a cheater, when one of his viewers asked him about that list.

The other guy of that list he thought might be cheating was Olofmeister.

And now that he has cleared his inventory it would make a lot of sense that he might be the next one going on a vacation.

 

[soultron]

Copies of their set inventory would be used for the tourney. Could even give them out to Twitch+GOTV viewers if a team gets knocked out in a match.

Yeah that's just too much work lol.

 

[lastflowers]

That story about digging up the hacks is crazy, if true. This whole situation is hilarious

 

[Xizk]

ESEA is helping Valve catch the cheaters. Head of ESEA said more bans coming.

[K.Sabot]

This is delicious.

 

[Xizk]

Yeah. Apparently Mouse wasn't invited to the qualifier? Seems like 3DMax was though. Strange.

Edit: Mouse player getting VAC next? Tinfoil hat on.

 

[haveheart]

wtf, was gone for 4 hours, missed one ban...

I really hope this stops.

I'm relieved the list is fake, who wrote this article on hltv???

On the other hand, it's good all of this comes out before DH.

 

[phantomspiker]

[cHinzo]

Dignitas to take Dreamhack Winter! \o/

Tempted to make a general thread, but it doesn't really promote discussion other than "lol esports" or "this is what we get when people play video games for a living"

Well one could argue that esports is on the same level as bicycle racing

Considering Gaf threads being picked up as news articles by gaming blogs/sites this might be a good idea.
Don't want to shed a bad light on the csgo community...

 

[Xizk]

Natu playing with Olofmeister http://www.twitch.tv/utanishu. Could be interesting hearing them discuss these events.

 

[Omega]

yeah don't make a thread in gaming side.

waifus are perfectly normal. being paid to entertain people? that's the most absurd shit in the world

I mean, I certainly'd hate to hide legit news, but I don't think the discussion after the fact will be worth anything.

Or at least it won't be any better than the discussion here.

 

[CountAntonius]

Holy shit. This is nuts.

can someone edit this gif too loop and say ban each time he strikes down with the mighty hammer?

 

[Deleted member 325805]

I haven't played CS in months but all this drama is all over Reddit, it's crazy how all these pros are being exposed.

 

[Rivitur]

Clementine is a lolli tho 0.o

 

[K.Sabot]

VAC just like

and pro scene just like

 

[ironmang]

Maybe this cheater scandal isn't the worst thing to happen to the game. Puts pressure on valve to be a little more hands-on than the highly ineffective overwatch system.
