Last weekend, a curious scene occurred at an eSports CSGO online tournaments in Shanghai. Professional Nikhil “Forsaken” Kumawat was caught on camera by a referee trying to use a hack in the shooter. Especially funny, however, was Forsaken’s subsequent plan to erase the cheat before the eyes of the referee.

Of course this action had some consequences – not only for Forsaken himself, but also for his team from OpTic India. First the team was excluded from the current CS GO online tournament. A short time later, the OpTic India officials announced that Forsaken and the entire team had been dismissed. Now it is examined whether Nikhil Kumawat is allowed to participate in CS GO online tournaments in the future. Already in 2017 the professional was suspended for six months due to the use of cheats.
