Hala Ares disqualified from Minor qual.

Russian team Hala Ares have been disqualified from the CIS Minor closed qualifier as one of their players, Bogdan "naumoff" Naumov, has a VAC ban to his name.

The Russian player is banned from all Valve tournaments for life, something that the tournament organisers only realised after Tuesday's surprising victory over K29 in the first round of the qualifier.

As a result of the disqualification, the victory has been overturned, with K29 due to meet Spirit in the winners' match, while teamasd will wait for the losing side in the decider match.

CyberFocus' K29 have been granted the victory

Fifteen teams remain in contention in the CIS Minor closed qualifier. The top two teams from each of the four groups will secure spots in the $50,000 competition, which will take place from June 8-11 in Moscow.

i think it's pretty known information that if you have vac ban you can't compete in valve sponsored events. do you think valve should change this rule to allow all vac banned players to join their sponsored competitions?

All you're saying is 'oh yeah everybody knows if you have a vac you're not allowed to play!" But why? There's literally no evidence of the guy cheating - he bottomfragged for two maps, and did alright on the last one. That's not screaming CHEATER to me.
2017-05-17 14:44

yes, but no one has said he cheated because that is irrelevant. the rules speaks about vac bans and he has a vac ban. it is irrelevant if he cheated in the match or not, because that is not the reason why he is not allowed to play. i think you should leave this speculation and let naumoff and valve work it out between thems as they are the only people/entities that could possibly know the truth.

Ok, next question. Why are VACced people not allowed to play? If they obviously aren't cheating, what is the problem? Is it just because Valve doesn't want bad rep or whag

if it really interests you, you should ask valve this question. not some random dude on forum filled with trolls. my guess would be that they consider vac banned people to be cheaters. i think that valve does not want cheaters to participate in competitions they sponsor. also i think they want there to be a negative incentive not to cheat if you are an aspiring pro player. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_Anti-Cheat#F.. in this wikipedia article there are 3 recorded instances of false positivities connected to CSGO. they all have happened after 2014 which is after naumoff got his ban if a fellow user in this thread is to be trusted. also, a vac ban is almost 100% positive detection of a cheat. it is very unlikely that naumoff's vac ban is any different. if it is, he should contact valve personally and try to resolve this issue.

Not really, I legitimately think there's no reason for his team to be disqualified just because he has a vac. He played poorly overall, meaning he likely wasn't cheating when he played the match. What's the problem?

So just because he has a vac hes automatically expected to always be cheating? That really makes no sense. I could have a report put out for me being a sexual predator and I dont need to molest a kid. And no, I'm not baiting. I truly do believe it's ridiculous he can't play because he has a vac, even though he clearly wasn't cheating

Although it's nice to see cheaters get punished, I don't get why Volvo just throws out a ban once in a while instead of setting a pure statement. Players like konfig or Heroic Niko both have smurfs/former account with VAC bans yet they are untouched. Is it because they are pro's and Volvo want to keep the imagery of a "clean" pro scene.

that is stupid to ban people for getting a vac 5+ years ago cheats are not something you are doing your whole life and can't stop. People can even stop using heroin...and valve thinks people cant stop cheating in a computer game after 5 years. Times are changing, people growing up and getting smarter. A lot of today's pros cheated when they were kids, just for fun, but still they did it. So what is the logic...I dont understand that

I'm 28 actually. No it's not. We talking about life here which by average is 70 years, and pro career which would last no more than 15 in best case. Currently all the cheaters know that VAC is a fucking joke. Hence why they are so keen on cheating cuz they know they can get away with it.

exactly...then they dont have to say they caught him cheating...because that would acknowledge that CHEATING ACTUALLY HAPPENS IN ONLINE VALVE QUALIFIERS This way they can just play csgo police and say "hey look we caught a guy with a VAC from 2015/16 (whichever year) on an alternate account so we have to disqualify them! His 23-12 must have been cause he got good now, but in the past he was a cheater so we are disqualifying him for that past VAC we found on an alt account...no cheating ever happened in one of our events, cheating isn't an issue at all in pro csgo!!! -signed Valve"
