Det var efter kvalmatchen mot ESG! som spekulationerna haglade in, fuskade dAT Team-spelaren Egor "flamie" Vasilyev under kvalmatchen? Det hela togs till en ny nivå när någon hittade ett VAC-bannat steamkonto med namnet flamief7. Nu har dock lagets kapten, Andrey "B1ad3" Gorodenskiy, berättat att Vasilyev kommer att delta på LAN-turneringen.
I en forumpost på HLTV.org berättar den omtalade ryska spelaren, flamie, följande:

— I used to play under my first steam account (0:1:61116, steamcommunity.com/id/flamief7/) for a long time. It had a page url of flamiew0w. I entered it as my steam profile link at ESEA," he wrote on HLTV.org.
"Then, at some point in time I decided to change my steam url. I didn’t change it on ESEA, because I obviously forgot about that. I don’t think there’s anything wrong about that in that. For example, Delpan’s profile @ SK-Gaming still says he plays in the same team as f0rest and GTR, even though it’s not exactly true anymore…
"At this point in time, some guy decides to take my old steam url, flamiew0w. That means that my ESEA profile now links to his page, even though he has nothing to do with me… That’s all there is to it. Anyone could take this steam url.
"Then at some point in time my steam account got a trade ban. I’ll admit it, I like skins, so I chose to simply migrate to a new one. As you can see, it was NOT vac-banned, it simply got a trade ban, which I tried to avoid.
"Now, to answer those people who say I changed my steamID the same day that guy’s account got VAC banned: this simply is not correct.
"You cannot change your ESL SteamID yourself, an admin has to do it for you, but first you have to open a ticket. Any ESL admin can confirm I applied for a steam ID change a week before his account got banned.
