The Esports Integrity Commission (ESIC) has issued a two-year ban to Danish CS:GO coach Nicolai ‘HUNDEN’ Petersen.
The ban was a result of allegations made when he was at his former team, HEROIC. The allegations state that Petersen shared information about the team’s strategy with opponents via Google Drive just before the start of IEM Cologne 2021.
Petersen’s ban started on August 25th, 2021 and will end on August 24th, 2023.
Ian Smith, Commissioner at ESIC, commented: “The sort of conduct punished here has to be unacceptable and would not be tolerated in traditional sport under any circumstances.
