Cheating Confirmed in CCT Season 3 Europe Series 10

The Champion of Champions Tour (CCT) has dropped the hammer on Team Dziuseppe following confirmed hardware cheat detections during their CCT Season 3 Europe Series 10 match against ALLINNERS. The investigation, led by Akros Anti-Cheat, verified that two players from the Polish lineup were using illicit hardware modifications, prompting immediate disciplinary action.

The match in question took place on 22 October 2025 and ended in a 2–0 defeat for Dziuseppe, with ALLINNERS claiming the win. What appeared to be an ordinary qualifier result quickly spiralled into a major integrity scandal within the CS2 scene.

Two-Year Bans for Fugor and Masi

CCT’s official ruling named Gabriel “Fugor” Fuc and Bartłomiej “Masi” Łacheta as the two players caught by Akros Anti-Cheat for hardware-based cheating. Both have received two-year bans from all CCT events, effective immediately.

The tour also confirmed that these suspensions could be extended if the Akros Anti-Cheat system maintains its ban beyond the initial two-year period. Masi, notably, had been the top-fragger for Dziuseppe during the match that sealed their fate.

Team-Wide Sanctions and Forfeitures

While Fugor and Masi faced the harshest penalties, the remaining three team members—Paweł “keis” Kosobudzki, Jan “Xydoo” Gajewski, and Karol “virtuoso” Wrześniewski—were also punished with six-month bans from all CCT events.

The suspensions took effect immediately on 22 October 2025. As a result, all of Dziuseppe’s scheduled or ongoing matches have been forfeited, with their participation in CCT Season 3 Europe Series 10 officially nullified.

Community Reacts: “Imagine Cheating and Still Losing 2–0”

The news sparked a flood of reactions across the CS2 community, particularly on HLTV forums. Many fans expressed disbelief and ridicule at the situation. One commenter summed up the mood, writing, “Imagine cheating and still lost 2-0.”

Others debated whether the Akros Anti-Cheat system is truly the gold standard for competitive detection. Some praised it as “better than FACEIT AC,” while others remained sceptical, joking about how “no one even knows these nobodies.”

Among Polish fans, the sentiment was mixed. While a few saw this as another blow to the country’s Counter-Strike reputation, calling it “the last nail in the coffin for Polish CS”, others dismissed it as an insignificant scandal involving an unrecognised stack.

What’s Next for CCT and Anti-Cheat Enforcement

This case marks one of the most decisive anti-cheating rulings in CCT’s recent history, reinforcing the league’s zero-tolerance policy on competitive integrity violations.

Akros Anti-Cheat, which continues to expand its use across third-party CS2 events, has been earning a reputation for detecting more sophisticated forms of hardware-assisted cheating that traditional software-based systems might miss.

CCT’s swift action has sent a clear message to teams and players alike: no matter how small the event or team, cheating will be met with severe consequences.

Final Thoughts

The Dziuseppe bans may not involve a top-tier roster, but they serve as an important reminder of how crucial anti-cheat enforcement has become in maintaining CS2’s competitive credibility. For CCT and Akros Anti-Cheat, this is both a statement of intent and a warning, cheating has no place in the modern Counter-Strike ecosystem.
