So we understand when someone cheats in an online game. You want to do better but you lack the skills or something like that. But, who in their right mind would go and cheat in a CS: GO LAN tournament? What kind of thought process do you need to have to think that you could get away with something like that? Anyhow, he was caught redhanded, and besides embarrassing his entire team and organization, he got severely punished as we found out thanks to Eurogamer.

Participating in an esports tournament in which you play a shooter means that you’re good at shooting things. By things we mean other players that you are competing against. Instead of using cheats, why wouldn’t you just train more until your skills improved? It doesn’t make any sense to us. Some may say that we’re being too judgemental, but it isn’t just your reputation on the line. He disgraced his entire CS: GO team (Optic India) with this act of foolery.

After the evidence against Nikhil “Forsaken” Kumawat was confirmed to be true, the player received a lengthy ban given to him by ESIC, which is short for Esports Integrity Coalition. It will last for five years, and it means that he can no longer participate in any kind of esports event until the ban expires.
