myRevenge have confirmed reports saying that their former Counter-Strike: Global Offensive team had parted ways from the organization due to a match fixing scandal on CSGOLounge.
Just yesterday we reported that myRevenge had removed their CS:GO team from their ESL page, without any official explaination. Now, the international eSports organization has posted an official statement on their Facebook page regarding the situation:
We were eager to find out what exactly happened Tuesday night during the showmatch between myRevenge and Volgare.
After what happened we sat down with the team captain and let him explain his side of the story.
He told us, that they didn't put any effort in that match and never intent to, which is really unsportsmanlike.
But he also promised us that neither him, nor the team knew about the bets against myRevenge.
The only way he could explain those bets was, that the players who performed with them on sunday, witch didn't take part in it on tuesday, knew about their attitude about showmatches and guessed right that myrevenge would loose anyways.
But yesterday night the management received some screenshots, which clearly proof that players who performed against Volgare told their friends on facebook and steam that they are going to throw the game and suggested them to bet against the own Team.
That's why we got seperated from the team this morning.
However we don't know yet how a futher cooperation with csgolounge will look like. We are already trying to reach them, to explain our side of the story.
If we will ever take part with another team again is not sure at this moment.
We are very sorry and shoked about what happended and we intend to take leagal steps against the team in next few days.”
