ESIC has seen an increase in the number of match-fixing matches

Contracted matches create problems for the development of many cyber sports disciplines, and Counter Strike: Global Offensive is no exception. Tournament organizers are working hard to identify and prevent such cases that damage the reputation of cybersports. This week, Australian player Joshua «JHD» Hugh-Devin made a statement that he was recently offered $2,000 for finishing a match with the desired result. Although he is not among the top cyber athletes, his performances at local level competitions attracted enough attention that he was asked to agree to a contract game. Joshua refused to go along with this out of principle. 

Recently, the ESIC (Commission on Fair Play in Cybersports) published a report according to which the number of such accusations arising from tournaments of various levels has increased significantly recently. Every day the organization receives more than a hundred appeals. Most of them turn out to be unfounded, but resources to investigate truly significant cases are also beginning to be scarce. An ESIC spokesperson notes that more than a dozen investigations into allegations of contract gaming have been launched in the last three months alone.
