GMX announces retirement

11-1-2016 23:18

Former Epsilon and melty member Robin "GMX" Stahmer has announced via Twitter that has put down his mouse and keyboard with immediate effect.

The decision comes in the aftermath of Valve's announcement that the bans issued to players who took part in match-fixing - a group in which Robin "⁠GMX⁠" Stahmer is included - are permanent.

The 22-year-old had returned to action in September, almost eight months after revealing that he and three former Epsilon teammates of his had deliberately lost an ESEA Invite match against OverGaming to make a profit on CSGOLounge.

GMX will retire from gaming

The whistleblowing situation resulted in bans being issued to these four players, who believed that their cases would be reviewed by Valve in 2016.

I'm done with csgo,good luck to my ex team mates with their new adventures,was fun playing again tho:D! @meltyALEX @LambertCSGO @mistoucsgo
— GMX (@gmxcsgo) January 11, 2016

But with Valve announcing that match-fixing bans will never be lifted, GMX has now decided to quit gaming for good. Joey "⁠fxy0⁠" Schlosser, who currently plays for Millenium, has not yet stated whether he will remain active after this setback.

The former melty squad now have:

Lambert "⁠Lambert⁠" Prigent
Valentin "⁠mistou⁠" Balbastro
Alex "⁠ALEX⁠" McMeekin
Mathieu "⁠LaAw⁠" Plantin

Good

Lol what?

2016-01-12 01:41

Uzi ahhaahahaha, good joke, almost like spanish scene

2016-01-12 10:06

gotta agree, spanish scene is even worse than brazilian one

2016-01-12 20:39

hltv.org/news/14109-gmx-i-wont-wish-them.. - evidence, this statement is proven. "He has also claimed that he is finished with competitive, professional CS for good, although whether this statement is merely a product of the current volatile situation remains to be seen."

2016-01-12 03:06

2016-01-11 23:55

Matchfixing :)

finally

rip

FAK!

2016-01-11 23:19

:-X

expected tbh

I guarantee, if he gets unbanned, he will return to gaming :D

2016-01-11 23:20

hes ingame atm

2016-01-11 23:21

He should be nailed to the wall, fucking snitch.

Was he the one who reported his mates out of rage?

Yes, because they kicked him off the team.

2016-01-11 23:23

wow what a scumbag

2016-01-11 23:27

Now all of them has perma ban, rip life. I bet more pros have thrown games, now they know they would be found out one way or another and so start concentrating on their studies rather than their cs career. Rip CS

2016-01-12 00:01

Yeah also just persons Not the whole team. E.g if snax wants ez skin he does Not perform and ez katka

2016-01-12 04:13

gg bro

enjoy your perma ban you fucking snitch

noob

finally BOT GMX... good choice!

hahaha ended his own career

im shocked

lol his career ended like last year rolf nice try

thats what you get for matchfixing... idiot

shit player, noone cares

yea gj valve, some people are banned from ESL/ESEA/FaceIt for cheating but they can still participate in majors and properly play because they're not VAC banned. It shouldn't matter how you got banned, the fact you get banned for cheating should determine you get banned. e.g. s1mple, moe, .. same for older people with vac's on older cs's, cheat ban = cheat ban, shouldn't matter what cs or what platform.

i don't give a F#CK, ruined his friends's career because they kicked him CUZ HE SUCKS. GG RIP IN PEACE enjoy your new career as friend thrower.

u mad? cmon its not your choice, what he does

2016-01-11 23:26

It's not my choice but I can still judge it

2016-01-11 23:43

2016-01-12 09:31

no, but then he should stop crying like a bitch on twitter about valves decision to permanent bann them, cuz he is the one that put them in that situation

2016-01-12 00:12

So true.

They ruined their own careers by throwing, kek

2016-01-12 08:40

>permanently banned from valve sponsored events NAH GUYS I'M TOTALLY RETIRING what a fuckboy

The awkward moment when you end your own career #JustGMXthings

2016-01-11 23:24

kkkk

cya

gg wp

who cares, he teamed up with vac banned dude laaw, which is still cheating... they both suck anyway :)

hope the skins was worth it

snitch

who cares about this shit.

LOL

He f'ed him self and his teammates over by snitching, the ban is deserved in my book. Good riddance GMX, glad I won't be seeing you no more, little sad for fxy0 though, the guy was so good.

2016-01-11 23:28

only thing worse than a match fixer is a guy who snitches on his friends for match fixing when he was in on it too. fuck this guy and good riddance.

2016-01-11 23:29

I don't think they were friends. Him and fxyo hated each other

2016-01-12 12:51

He didn't say thanks to lAaw. kek

2016-01-11 23:31

again? aye lmao

i thought he already retire

Cya matchfiXeR no one cares u was trashhh

2016-01-11 23:32

2016-01-11 23:33

finally, this fucking kid just got 0 respect.

Why is this noname making HLTV news?

2016-01-11 23:34

Lol he made the right thing Richard lewis too Matchfixers have no place in this community

richard lewis ?

2016-01-12 00:00

ratting out your teammates is not the right thing by any means

2016-01-12 11:59

he participated and then got salty and snitched after he got kicked tho p shit person

2016-01-13 20:11

"im done " eksde

2016-01-11 23:36

2016-01-11 23:38

gmx sucks anyways

2016-01-11 23:39

2016-01-11 23:41

valve has no mercy

2016-01-11 23:42

t4 french shitter announces retirement - literally noone would care if he got never banned.

Lol, dat guy couldn't even make it out of DMG hell a year ago.

..and he will be DMG again, in that new rank system

2016-01-12 00:30

[*] very sad Recursive: Happy, Maniac,kennyS ,Uzzziii, GMX - in heart forever.

2016-01-11 23:44

Everyones like "who cares" yet when its NA scene everyone is crying xd HLTV Logic.

2016-01-11 23:47

That's the dumbest thing I've read all day

Who the fuck care about retirement of any ghost from NA?

2016-01-12 02:47

Seriously hltv, this is news worthy?

2016-01-11 23:53

who cares ? don't come back , fucking thrower

2016-01-11 23:54

You wouldn't be here if you don't care

2016-01-12 14:27

thank god

retard threw away his own career by ratting his teammates out lol, just sad that fxy0 can't play because of this shitter

fxy0 has his own fault too, don't try to blame one player only.

11 replies

ofc it's their fault, but still really funny how gmx only fucked himself over, lol.. no way they would get caught if not for him going full retard because he was salty at his teammates for getting cut or something

2016-01-11 23:57

10 replies

So they only got caught because of GMX? +respect for GMX then, due his stupidity we got rid of match-fixers.

hltv.org/news/14131-gmx-reveals-epsilon-..

2016-01-11 23:59

Didn't even remember that. Thanks GMX!

yeah, and now he is crying like a bitch on twitter because valve decided to permanent ban them

2016-01-12 00:13

snitchers ain't good ;) If volvo wants a clean scene, they should investigate their own. Not wait until someone snitches about it. I bet my life there in Brazil, you would get your ass raped in a jail for example just because of a snitch.

2016-01-12 01:18

If you're poor, yes, if you're rich, then no.

2016-01-12 01:35

That's not the point, dumbass. The point is, think twice before talking.

2016-01-12 01:36

If more proplayers decides to snitch, I will totally aprove and like it, that's my point. Dumbass.

2016-01-12 01:38

You still haven't got the point. Pointless to talk to you at this point. bb favela

2016-01-12 01:42

it doesn't matter, plenty of top players have thrown in the past, they just weren't retarded enough to get skins onto their main acc instead of getting cash from real money sites or something like that

Valve announces ex-Epsilon, ex-iBUYPOWER players retirement. That's how I read Valve's lifetime bans explanation last week.

snitches get stitches

WHO ?

In his time of pro player GMX achieved one thing. He got most of his teammates banned for live.

pretty much this. and always get carried xD

2016-01-12 00:45

ha ha ha so true

2016-01-12 00:47

Maybe he shouldn't have snitched, if he wanted to play in the future :>

2016-01-12 00:04

sad :/

2016-01-12 00:07

who cares this dumb, reported mates cuz got kicked hahahaha

go and wallow in a pit of your own piss GMX, you made this bed yourself when you decided to become a rat. I for one wont lose any sleep over this.

who ?

2016-01-12 00:14

well done

Like this is a T1 team who attends major LANs?

2016-01-12 00:15

Brought it all on yourself. You used to be a nice guy too, I respected you. But now, fuck you GMX.

he was shit anyway

2016-01-12 00:18

No one cared the last time No one cares now

2016-01-12 00:21

rip volvo's retarded logic apreciated from betting plebs

2016-01-12 00:27

So much hate on GMX... but he deserves it :D

bb snitch, never cumback.

Goodbye Snitch u will be remembered as a person who ruined dreams

2016-01-12 00:32

this is ridiculous. lifetime bans are unjustified and if valve really enforced these on everyone who threw, about 25% of the current pros would also be banned for life (my source is someone who claims to have bribed many pros).

2016-01-12 00:33

Fucking snitching rat hes not only bad at the game but also bad at live, cant take it that hes shit and had been kicked

2016-01-12 00:38

he's an hero rip

2016-01-12 00:41

good riddance

2016-01-12 00:42

hahahaha

2016-01-12 00:46

2016-01-12 01:15

good fucking snake

2016-01-12 01:21

You don't say nigga Of course anyone would retire from the scene if they got banned

2016-01-12 01:23

2016-01-12 14:07

All these hate comments, Jesus Christ, chill out. Anyway, sad to see GMX go, one of my favorite French players that got me playing in the first place.

2016-01-12 14:22

you should change "<3 snitch"

2016-01-13 00:25

2016-01-12 15:07

Deserved

2016-01-12 15:55

People hate him for no reaason. He is right. you throw one time and if u dont get caught. you will throw more, and his old teammates deserved a ban by that.

2016-01-12 17:18

No he is not right. He snitches because he got kicked out of the team cuz he IS shit at the game. His moral was like if you kick me i bring you all down with me. If he WOULD have come with all that information before he got kicked or anything then he would be right but hes a snitching rat. he looks like one also so its all good

2016-01-13 07:36

Its fair. they kick him, he gets him back 2a/2a both cancel out each other. funny they hate the rat instead of the douches who threw the game.and wonder how many more they did.

2016-01-13 18:18
