CCT issues bans to three teams for cheating

Two players from each of THE, KHAN and Y5's teams have been banned for cheating, and another for smurfing.

KHAN's dosikk was one of six players banned by Akros Anti-cheat

CCT has announced that it has issued bans to players of teams THE, KHAN and Y5 after the Akros Anti-cheat found evidence of cheating software on two players from each team.

According to the statement, KHAN's Dastan "⁠dosikk⁠" Mauessov and Daniil "⁠tEO⁠" Prok, THE's Mark "⁠d0RREN⁠" Karachevtsev and Idris "⁠1Drezz⁠" Beksultanov, and Y5's Nurmukhammed "⁠singulier⁠" Mugal and Zhanibek "⁠R3LiFwOw⁠" Kuatov were found to have cheated and received two-year bans from CCT for the offense.

Additionally, CCT issued a two-year ban to Raiymbek "⁠dune⁠" Dusenov after he was found to share the account of one of the players banned for cheating, 1Drezz.

A formal investigation also found that 1Drezz's integrity camera feed — a requirement CCT has set this year for their online matches — in a CCT Season 3 Europe Series 8 match between THE and 1win did not match the player. CCT told HLTV it cannot say for certain whether the real player on the camera feed was dune.

The rest of the teammates from the KHAN, THE and Y5 rosters have received six-month bans. CCT has not yet named these, but a representative has told HLTV that it will do so in a reply. They will be added to the list of players banned below once that happens:

Kazakhstan Dastan "⁠dosikk⁠" Mauessov (2 years)

dune allegedly played in place of 1drezz with 1drezz account Smurfing its not only considered to have a second account normally in a lower level, thats what i thought too at the beggining but it looks like its also impersonation or more than one account too, i suppose.

Smurfing is anything where you use account different than your main to participate in competition (whether its ranked game or tournament) that is below your skill level in general terms. I cannot say I agree with labeling this particular offense as 'smurfing' , its not like niko who takes my acc to play in some tier 99 tourney, but rather ' account sharing ' because is dune that much better than the competition in that cct tourney ?

Its just common knowledge. 90% of the cheaters you face in this game are from Russia 9% from other eastern regions We all are waiting for the day when we can get regionbased gaming, where you can block all eastern IP adresses. Just imagine how much better the experience would be for everyone!

even with permanent bans people will do this. think about how much money can be made from salary/match fixing. these kids can literally become millionaires. the only thing that will stop this is making it a criminal offense with a penalty that scares people away.. I think all countries should adopt 2 years in jail for cheating in online competitive video games and 10 years for cheating in a professional setting. this would do more to stop cheating than any anti-cheat ever would.

Even a couple of years in jail without parole is enough to prevent cheating lol. No need to overdo it with ten years.
2025-10-02 23:54

1 reply
the 10 years is for professional settings and it should be that severe because money is involved which most likely means other crimes are being committed at the same time. you're defrauding your employer, scamming tournament organizers, stealing other people's prize money, ruining other player's careers and chances, ruining bettor's slips, and probably match fixing / involved with shady organizations. I thought 10 years was light for this to be honest, I'd be happier with 15 and a lifetime ban from the internet once released. a 2 year ban from the game and no legal charges is insane for what is actually happening. I also forgot to mention, websites hosting cheats or payment processors should be held financially responsible, and cheat devs should get the most severe punishments, 25 years.
