Unique vs Cat345; Ruling Update
After discussing the current presented evidence and the submission of new evidence that has been presented to our admin team, we are updating our decision to give a warning to Team Unique.
The evidence has allowed us verify the allegations made against Team Unique during the first map of their quarter final game vs Cat345.
We are increasing the punishment of Team Unique from a warning to a default loss of the affected map.
From the original video presented it was unclear if the video was made during a live map, and our team was unable to verify when the incident had occurred. It would have been unfair to Team Unique for us to act without sufficient evidence.
During the second map, multiple members of our team were present at both Team Unique and Cat345’s desks in order to verify integrity of the second maps result.
This results in the map score being 1-1, and the final map will take place at 21:00 BST, to decide which team will proceed to the semi-finals of the UK Masters CSGO open.
