In a significant blow to the CCT Europe Season 3, a series of player bans have been handed out following a cheating scandal involving several prominent players across multiple teams. The Champion of Champions Tour (CCT) issued the sanctions after an investigation revealed suspicious activities during a match between THE and 1Win on September 29, 2025.
The CCT conducted an in-depth probe after the Akros anti-cheat system flagged several irregularities during the online tournament. One of the primary findings stemmed from an issue with THE’s player, Idris ‘1Drezz’ Beksulanov, whose camera feed was shown to not match the individual competing in the server. This discrepancy violated the tournament’s integrity rules, which mandate that all players must provide live camera feeds during matches to ensure fair play.
As a result of the investigation, the CCT uncovered a more extensive case of account manipulation. It was found that Raiymbek ‘dune’ Dusenov from KHAN had been actively playing on 1Drezz’s account, an offense that led to the discovery of multiple players violating tournament regulations. The Akros anti-cheat system confirmed that cheating software was being used, further compounding the severity of the case.
Due to the findings, multiple players have been banned from participating in CCT events for two years. These players include the entire KHAN duo of Dastan ‘dosikk’ Mauessov and Daniil ‘tEO’ Pro, as well as Y5’s Nurmukhammed ‘singulier’ Mugal and Zhanibek ‘R3LiFwOW’ Kuatov. THE’s Idris ‘1Drezz’ Beksulanov and Mark ‘d0RREN’ Karachevtsev have also been handed two-year bans.
The full list of players who have been penalized includes:
Dastan ‘dosikk’ Mauessov – 2 years
Daniil ‘tEO‘ Pro – 2 years
Nurmukhammed ‘singulier’ Mugal – 2 years
Zhanibek ‘R3LiFwOW’ Kuatov – 2 years
Idris ‘1Drezz’ Beksulanov – 2 years
Mark ‘d0RREN’ Karachevtsev – 2 years
