ESIC may have banned Woro2k - community discusses possible suspension of the Eternal Fire player

Ukrainian AWPer for Eternal Fire, Volodymyr “Woro2k” Velentyuk, has reportedly received a ban from ESIC in Counter-Strike 2. Information about this appeared in one of the Telegram channels, but at the time of publication neither the commission itself nor the Turkish organization had provided any official comments.

The reasons for the possible ban remain unknown. The source that spread the information did not disclose what exactly the player’s suspension might be related to. Against the background of these rumors, the community also began discussing possible changes to the Eternal Fire roster. According to unofficial reports, the club has already brought in Adelin “adeX” Nica for a trial period, which only intensified the conversation about potential sanctions against Woro2k.

Additional attention to the situation was drawn by the fact that Velentyuk himself deleted his Telegram channel. It is still unclear whether this is directly connected to the alleged ESIC ban or if it is simply a coincidence. Nevertheless, the lack of official information leaves many questions surrounding the story.

Despite his controversial reputation, Woro2k has long been considered one of the most notable and talented players of his generation. Back in 2021, Oleksandr “s1mple” Kostyliev highly praised the potential of the Ukrainian sniper:

“Right now he only plays FPL. Maybe he won’t succeed this year. But in a year, everything will work out for him. His skill level allows him to build his own game. Woro2k finds the right timings and comes up with interesting ideas.”

At the same time, Woro2k’s name has repeatedly been at the center of scandals. Since 2021, he has been accused of cheating on multiple occasions, while well-known members of the community such as Lobanjica, OverDrive, and other content creators have publicly criticized the player.

Velentyuk has been competing on the professional stage since 2020. Among his main achievements are winning ESL Challenger at DreamHack Winter 2023 and finishing in 5th-8th place at the BLAST.tv Paris Major as part of Monte. For now, the player’s future remains uncertain, and the community is waiting for official statements from ESIC and Eternal Fire.
