Valve have disqualified another team from the StarLadder CIS Minor, as TEAMSWAGYOLO's David "Dave" Tereshin has received a ban from all Valve-affiliated events due to a Valve Anti-Cheat ban.

Earlier today Valve investigated eXplosive's Mikhail "⁠s3mig0d⁠" Lakhvich and found that he had a three-year old Valve Anti-Cheat (VAC) ban on one of his Steam accounts, and thus decided to disqualify his team from the CIS Minor.

In yet another case David "⁠Dave⁠" Tereshin, who was merely standing in for TEAMSWAGYOLO in the closed qualifier and helped them advance, was found ineligible to play in Valve-affiliated events for the same reason.
