The player was found guilty of trying to bypass the ESL Wire system during the latest qualifiers for the Global Challenge New York. The discovery was a result of new detection methods that were added to software recently. In addition he also used a fake profile on the ESL page.

Rumours had started in the community after HRG received public attention due to their win against Polish top team Frag eXecutors in the first European pre-qualifier for the Global Challenge New York. The team would go on until round 4 where it lost against Moscow Five, who went on to qualify for the final qualifier next Saturday.

Meanwhile the games SK Gaming vs. Electronic Sahara and WinFakt vs. Alternate ATTAX have not yet been rescheduled. They were ruled to be replayed by the ESL admins after Electronic Sahara and Alternate complained about a rule violation regarding the Linesman plug-in for ESL Wire.
