BetBoom Dota 2 Team Penalized and Victory Overturned
A Dota 2 team, BetBoom, faced a setback at the Bali Major tournament when one of its players was caught watching a Twitch stream during a match. Initially, BetBoom emerged victorious against Tundra, but their win has been nullified and the team has been penalized due to a player streaming Dota 2 during the match.
The Bali Major has been surrounded by several controversies, including complaints from players regarding the quality of the tournament's PCs. However, the most significant incident so far has been the reversal of BetBoom's victory after one of their players, Pure, was found watching a Twitch stream during the match.
As per the tournament rules, players are prohibited from accessing external sources of information or engaging in any activity that could grant them an unfair advantage during the competition.
According to the Bali Major regulations, a player can be deemed in violation of this rule if they have access to any form of information from outside the game that provides them with a competitive edge over their opponent.
Following an investigation by officials, BetBoom has received a penalty, and the match outcome has been reversed in favor of Tundra.
This incident has already had a significant impact on BetBoom's performance and standings in the tournament. The repercussions for the team's future remain uncertain. However, the decision to overturn their victory serves as a warning to other teams and players to adhere to the rules and avoid any form of cheating or unfair practices.
