4csgoskins guide:UK CSGO scene rocked by cheating and drug use

　　　　The UK CSGO Market scene has been pretty crazy this past week, with one player being banned for cheating and another admitting to taking drugs at epic.LAN.
　　Vatic drops player over drug use
　　Firstly, UK player Charlie "K1NDEADLY" Weber (pictured right) has been released from Vatic's roster due to taking drugs at epic18 earlier this year.
　　According to Matt Litherland of Vatic, Charlie apparently was smoking marijuana, snorting cocaine and drinking at epic.LAN, and upset several people at the event.
　　While Charlie has since publicly admitted the drug use to the UK CSGO Scene Facebook group and in a tweet, he has refuted some of Matt's claims. It's worth pointing out there is no proof of Matt's claims that we're aware of.
　　He has admitted he had 'serious drug issues' but says he has taken some rehab-type sessions to sort himself out. While he said he was in full control while on drugs, he admitted it was wrong.
　　
Charlie told eSports News UK: "I was homeless during those years and as a result I turned to drugs. It isn't an excuse but it gives you an idea of where I was at during my addiction and how hard it is to break a three-year addiction.
　　"But yes, since epic.LAN, I have since taken my self to rehab and other drop in sessions to fully fix my issues and sort my life out... I would love to play in the scene still but I have had some interest from EU teams. It all depends if people still want me to play in the scene and if any teams would take the risk with me... we shall see."
　　Vatic said in a statement on their website: "We chose at the time not to publicly explain this decision but we shall shed light on the matter now.
　　"Charlie represented himself, Vatic and our partnerships during his time in the team, most importantly he is representing us in person and is an ambassador of our brand. Unfortunately despite the reasonable requests made by his team mates and Vatic at epic.LAN, Charlie was unable to conduct himself in a professional, adult manner. Subsequently the removal of this player was the only reasonable choice he left us with. We wish him the best of luck in the future."
　　Vatic have also dropped their CSGO roster entirely following 'several weeks of inactivity' - and are now on the lookout for a new line-up. "We will not be rushing this decision and will be waiting to see CS GO Skins how the forthcoming Multiplay event Insomnia58 plays out," Vatic added.
　　ESL hits cheater with two-year ban
　　The other shocking piece of UK CSGO news this week was that of UK player Joseph "Joee" Leigh (pictured left) being banned for cheating during an ESL UK qualifier match against Rize Gaming UK, as reported by UKCSGO.com. He's been hit with a two-year ESL-wide ban.
　　You can check out a video of the moment he gets banned below, along with a picture of his ESL page and a tweet confirming it.
