If he gets hit with ESIC ban, would he go to valorant?
I assume that the logic behind cheating is the same as why most Olympians do doping : they are highly competitive, hard- working and talented people who are beginning to fall behind or might have hit a plateau, so they need an edge?
(Side note, most people at Olympics get away with doping because it is easy to fool the anti-doping tests)
frustration/desperation. they were good but all the ones i listed were semi-pro or well known puggers at best when they were banned, and i guess they wanted to take that next step in their careers but didnt really think about the consequences of their actions. kids are just stupid, texta was 13 when he was vac banned and then became probably the biggest upcoming talent in AU CS, presumably legitimately lol. cant really blame a 13 year old for making rash decisions
probably some cheat to be better but some probably made that decision before they were grown up enough and that comes back to bite in their ass.
in the jamppi story. dude had a vac banned account when he was 14. and it wasn't banned before he gave it to his friend but that ban resulted in his cs career getting cut short. he was doing good without hacks and valve banned him from pro play for something he did when he was 14 and allegedly he didn't even do it.
