Counter-Strike gambling site CSGOEmpire has issued an apology after an incident where fans rushed the stage during Counter-Strike 2’s first Major in Copenhagen last fortnight in protest against rival site CSGORoll.
In an April 6 statement from the gambling platform on X (formerly Twitter), CSGOEmpire apologized for its involvement in a stage rush incident during the G2 vs. MOUZ quarterfinal at the CS2 PGL Copenhagen Major. “We intended to send a message, but it was a mistake on our part to punish the wrong people, and things blew out of proportion,” CSGOEmpire said in the post. “We will also soon move our gambling customers over to Duel.com, which will be unrelated to Valve or Counter-Strike.”
