A very interesting clip emerged from the match between MIBR and OG yesterday at Flashpoint 2.
During a technical pause, it was clear, that the Brazilian team had the broadcast of the match shown on a monitor in the room allowing the players during the pause to watch and/or hear the broadcast.
In the future, this will be considered as cheating, the Esport Integrity Commission announced this morning.
