CS:GO pro under fire after using racial slurs towards fellow player FACEITRussian CS:GO professional Tatiana \u2018Sindi\u2019 Gracheva is under fire from the community after sending racist remarks towards another player during a CS:GO pick-up game. One of many female pro players, Sindi is now receiving backlash after she used a racial slur repeatedly in the game chat of a FACEIT match of CS:GO. Although she has been inactive for some time, Sindi has notably competed on the London Conspiracy team who place second at Copenhagen Games 2017 after losing to Team Secret in the finals. Sindi was playing a pick-up game on CS:GO with her boyfriend and a friend when they began arguing with members from the other team including professional player, Robiin. A player named \u2018Melonheadxp,\u2019 then brought Sindi into the argument after telling her boyfriend \u201cyour gf has sent nudes to the whole fucking cs community.\u201d Sindi then replied with abusive racial comments towards Melonhead numerous times, after he had threatened to share her alleged nude photos with members of his team. After the game melonheadxp posted some more photos of the chat log online. The full chat log from the FACEIT pick up game can be found here. No matter how upset or angry you get this is just crossing the line by far. I guess peoples show their real faces when they lose control\u2026 @FACEIT @sindicsgo pic.twitter.com\/1AcYetawob \u2014 Noel Raki (@melonheadxP) May 25, 2019 Sindi has since released a statement explaining that she made mistakes, apologizing for her behavior and explaining her side of the story, claiming that her, Robiin and Melonheadxp were \u201ctruly good friends\u201d prior to the argument. As of now, It appears that FACEIT has only issued Sindi a three day ban for using \u201cabusive language\u201d during the game but with recent backlash from the community.
