CS2 Player Nocries Faces Cheat Check at Faceit HQ NYC

CS2 player Nocries has found himself at the center of the esports community’s attention after suspicions of unfair play on the Faceit platform. He became the top-ranked player in North American FACEIT with a rating of over 4300 ELO, demonstrating an impressive level of play that quickly sparked suspicions of third-party software use. To dispel the doubts, he received an invitation to personally visit the company’s New York office and undergo a cheat check.

The initiative came from both the player and Faceit: after accusations from part of the community, Nocries suggested coming to prove his fair play, and the platform supported the idea and organized the verification.

On September 24, Nocries played five matches on Faceit under the supervision of the anti-cheat team. By the end of the session, he lost only one match, with a total K/D of an impressive 108-64. In each game, Nocries was the best player on his team in terms of kill-to-death ratio, which only increased interest in the verification process.

“The first day at our New York headquarters, where Nocries is playing, is over. Nocries is playing under supervision on equipment set up by our anti-cheat team, allowing him to demonstrate his game in a fully controlled environment,” said Faceit representatives.

Similar situations have occurred in esports before. In 2017, Robin “Ropz” Kool faced the same accusations but successfully proved his skill, which later made him one of the most famous CS:GO players.
