Moses: Why Valve is failing CSGO community with Jamppi\u2019s ban ELEAGUE \/ DreamHack Speaking exclusively to Dexerto, Counter-Strike caster, Jason \u2018Moses\u2019 O\u2019Toole, has weighed in on Elias \u2018Jamppi\u2019 Olkkonen\u2019s ban from Valve officiated events ahead of ENCE\u2019s Semifinal appearance in BLAST Premier. [jwplayer c30d8Kdj-scyvyYe0] After an account he previously owned received a Valve Anti-Cheat (VAC) ban, Jamppi filed a lawsuit against the Counter-Strike developers for damages that reportedly prevented the Finnish star from joining OG Esports due to being prohibited from competing at Major tournaments. As part of the lawsuit, Jamppi claimed for \u20ac266,092 in compensation and the removal of his permanent ban. Moses on Jamppi\u2019s impact for ENCE In light of Valve\u2019s response to Jamppi, Moses has given his two cents on the 18-year-old\u2019s ban, as the ENCE squad are reaching new heights in BLAST Premier with the youngster on their starting lineup. In terms of what Jamppi brings to Finnish roster, O\u2019Toole contested that it\u2019s his raw mechanical ability that is his most redeeming quality. \u201cJust in a most basic sense, what he brings to ENCE is an incredible amount of firepower \u2014 an incredible amount of talent and skill into this roster\u2026\u201d Moses then touched on exactly why Jamppi could bring more consistency to ENCE\u2019s lineup, comparing his raw ability to teammate, Jere \u201csergej\u201d Salo. \u201cIf you look at it a little bit deeper\u2026 It feels like he\u2019s the superstar in ENCE that sergej was supposed to be.\u201d Reflecting on sergej\u2019s relatively inconsistent performances, Moses added that Jamppi could be the player that \u201cprovides the star power on a consistent basis.\u201d Moses on Jamppi\u2019s VAC ban Touching on Jamppi\u2019s ongoing lawsuit against Valve, Moses explained why he believes Valve should consider lifting Jamppi\u2019s permanent ban from Valve\u2019s Major tournaments. \u201cI think this is maybe one of the final areas where Valve is really failing this community,\u201d the commentator argued. \u201cEven if the account is banned or it did actually happen, still like 14 at the time, this is a player who could bring so much to the Counter-Strike scene \u2014 this is a player who can contribute so much to the professional scene. Moses then looked forward to how Jamppi\u2019s permanent ban could impact the starting lineup as well as ENCE as an organization, delving into how the ban doesn\u2019t simply start and end at the player and that there is a much more global impact. \u201cI think we deserve to have a player of Jamppi\u2019s caliber, that we can see already, being able to make his mark on the history of Counter-Strike in the biggest events \u2014 in our world championships that Valve runs.\u201d After making his stance clear, Moses simply added that he hopes the issue gets resolved and that the hotshot is eventually allowed to compete at Majors, now that he is of age to do so.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
