Steven "Sasquatch" Csikos makes claim of an alleged attempt at match fixing by Complexity's Matt "Warden" Dickens.

USA - A large controversy is brewing in the CEVO Professional CS:Source Season 5 playoff picture. Wednesday night, Complexity and Devastation were scheduled to play for Week 7, the last match of the regular season and a match which would decide the playoff fate of both teams. The match was paused, not finished, and now it appears as though Devastation will forfeit due to lack of demos. However, the real controversy is coming in the form of accusations by Steven “sasquatch” Csikos that Complexity member Matt “Warden” Dickens attempted to make a deal in which Devastation would forfeit the match and split prize money between both teams.

The match begun and was played through the first half and five rounds into the second when the match was paused due to internet connection problems for Complexity. Devastation was leading the match 8-6. Complexity claimed to being packeted and a ruling was made to continue the match Thursday night. CEVO admins reconvened Thursday evening to make a ruling on starting money for the match and get the match played out. During the investigation of start money, it was revealed that Csikos could not produce a demo from the cut-short second half of the match. Csikos has been given the official 24 hours to produce the demo before an official announcement is made by CEVO. However, the case appears to be open and shut. Rule is: No demo, you forfeit.

Before this realization was made however, Csikos claims that Dickens offered him a deal to let Complexity pass through to playoffs by way of Devastation forfeiting and Complexity would split championship earnings with Devastation. Csikos has given a statement to GotFrag about the incident and has provided a screenshot of the IRC conversation discussing the alleged deal.

No comment from Warden.

GotFrag contacted Matt “Warden” Dickens for a comment but he was not willing to go on record about the incident. GotFrag was unable to contact Complexity General Manager Jason Lake or an official from the CGS for comment on the developing story at the time of this writing. CEVO should have an official statement Friday concerning the match and playoff teams. Stay tuned to GotFrag for further developments in this developing controversy and an official ruling from CEVO on the match as playoffs are scheduled to begin Saturday for CEVO Pro CS:S Season 5.
