“I think that they’re doing the right thing in that line of thought and I accept the six-month ban. I agree with them, I had the chance to disconnect and I didn’t, as I had done in some cases.”

MiBR let go of its most experienced players

The scandal proved to be grave for the organization that was already struggling with poor results. MiBR failed to meet expected standards and have struggled for over a year and a half. As a result, the management decided to let go of  Fernando “⁠fer⁠” Alvarenga, Epitacio “⁠TACO⁠” de Melo, and  Gabriel “⁠FalleN⁠” Toledo.

MiBR has also been stripped of its regional Major Ranking (RMR) points following their involvement in the coach bug scandal.

ESIC announced a couple of days back that it will report its first substantial findings on September 28. Michal Slowinski started the initial investigation and reported that the bug had been exploited on a number of instances in the past. It is because of the same reason that the ESIC is going through over twenty-five thousand demos, dating as far back as 2016.

Difficult times lie ahead for the Brazilian organization that is struggling to find its true form. But, as with most CS:GO teams, MiBR is looking at possible replacements to add strength to its roster. We will definitely hear more from them in the following weeks. Stay tuned for more updates!
