FACEIT & LDLC react to match issue

This evening's clash between Virtus.pro and LDLC ended up being plagued by DDoS issues for the French players, which eventually culminated in an incident that saw LDLC receive and use more money than they should have had. FACEIT and LDLC have released their statements on the matter, indicating the possibility of a rematch.

FACEIT Spring League 2014 match between Virtus.pro and LDLC was interrupted six times with DDoSing of several players from the French team.

After one of those incidents and restoring the match to the score 14-14, LDLC's Hovik "KQLY" Tovmassian who had just reconnected received more money than he should have, using it to buy weapons for his teammates. The teams continued playing the match with LDLC eventually winning 16-14.

KQLY & co.'s DDoS troubles led to more issues in the match against Virtus

Virtus.pro brought up the issue to the organizers afterwards, and now FACEIT came out with the following statement that explained that the money bug occured due to a mod on the server:

"Dear community,

The FACEIT admin team is aware of the issue where KQLY of Team-LDLC got disconnected from the match against Virtus Pro in the FACEIT CS:GO Spring League Day 4. He disconnected with around 3,500 money, and once he returned he had around 10,500. We are currently investigating the story from both sides, analyzing demos and gathering further information which could help us.

Team-LDLC is not directly responsible for the cause of the bug, as it was an error caused by the mod we use for our servers. This was caused due to all the pauses, disconnects, restarts and other server commands issued due to the DDOS attacks on several Team-LDLC players and disconnects by both teams. It was a harsh situation caused by outside sources, not by the teams.

I want to express that we are looking into this seriously, so we are taking our time to take an educated decision which is most fair for both teams.

Roald "roychez" van Buuren
Project Manager FACEIT Spring League"

LDLC's Dan "apEX" Madesclaire also offered his comment on the matter, stating that the team is ready to replay the match if needed:

"We are ok with any decision, whether to replay the match or to go back to X-X ! We want to play the match without any troubles. We will protect ourselves against the DDOS in the upcoming days. We are good friends with Virtus.pro and it's unfortunate to be in this kind of situation with them."

According to FACEIT the final decision on the matter will be announced tomorrow.
