46 players have been banned from Dota 2 (opens in new tab) Esports events, seemingly resulting from an investigation following allegations of cheating in January’s Chinese regional Winter Tour of the Dota Pro Circuit (DPC). The list includes the entirety of the team Knights, which was accused of using a vision hack to cheat their way to a third-place finish in the DPC matches.
That finish qualified Knights for $27,000 and a spot in the recent Lima Major (opens in new tab). Knights’ performance once there was notoriously poor, however, absolutely bombing with a 1-15 record in that tournament.
