Crazy that emoting, an in-game feature, is illegal, while players like APA are openly flaming their opponents using all chat and having their messages be promoted on official broadcast.

[cursedshadow]

Imagine being the team who accepts a free win over this. Now theyre just known as a joke.

[ItsYoBoiDuck]

imagine so bad at game that your so offend of getting emote ACCIDENTALY💀💀💀💀💀

[iseeyounoobs]

Rules like " no emoting in game" should be enforced before the game begins, not after. They literally play on custom clients for tournaments, just disable it via the client. This should never be something that is used to punish players, the tournament organizers have the ability to remove the problem before a game even begins.

[Tonirel]

Emotes are part of the game, just saying... Getting disqualified for playing the game is not okay

PHILIPPINES MENTIONED 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭

Filipino LoL player here. That was all true. The saddest thing about it is that the organizers insisted that they communicated the "no emote" rules to the team captains, but then apparently forgot to tell their own marshals (tournament officials) to check if the auto-emotes were disabled.

Caedrel comment on this says a lot: "The most disgusting, embarrasing, trashy ass f*cking dog sh*t tournament organizer I've ever heard of in my life".

It's unfortunate that the Match 33 incident is the biggest thing to come out from the Filipino LoL esports scene (so far), we've been trying to rebuild the scene for years but this was a major setback. Shame on the organizers for this, and to the players who were being sticklers about the unfair rules.

Additional Info for the Disqualified team


The marshals/officials were friends of the organizer and had no clue how League of legends works and the rules were made by the husband and when people complained the husband responded as if he owns the tournaments

[inferno]

That ksante player should be banned from all tournaments. Leave your ego at the door

[raphaelantoine]

Every time we justify people being offended for small actions, we lower the threshold for people complaining and being triggered. This cannot end well 😭

[WhoseWho]

Ironic that the rules mention not using emotes while its okay to have an ign "Jackol" which means j3rking off HAHAHA

[khadajhin]

Another goofy thing in this whole fiasco is that while they implemented that "no emote" rule, other teams has also been caught using emotes but they did not suffer the same consequence as the West Point Esports did (the team that got DQ'd). In addition to that, one of the players of the team that took advantage of the disqualification of the other team have a inappropriate IGN that surprisingly caused no issues nor warnings, both of the IGN is Defile (the guy that died on the first blood and cried to the game marshals) and Jackol which means Masturbate in tagalog.

Showmaker bm'ing g2 using ig 2018 and fpx 2019 emotes 👍
Some guy having his emote show automatically after first blod 😡

[shadowb]

dude if i accepted a free win in a pro tournament because enemy emoted on me accidentally, i would never dare to show my face ever again

[asainman]

Eyy is me, it was really wild to see that disqualification live, and the fact that these were Ivy league players De la salle to booth (literally the filipino version of Harvard) is just crazy.

[xMorphasis]

The whole team leaving immediately after the pause is crazy

[JJBeauregard]

Imagine if Veigar was viable in competitive play, the champion automatically laughs when he gets a kill. Would that result in disqualification as well?

[flyingdutchman]

EVERYONE do NOT forget, 12.06, perma Ahri

[YukkiRuiii]

As a student of said university i would like to apologize for our player's inability to have a spine as well as being a player with no sportsmanship but the saying of spoiled brats in the school are undoubtedly true

[MrSolomonGaming]

"Transcendent tier"
It has a kill count feature that multiple skins have already.
It has less voice lines than a number of Legendary skins.
It has a unique takedown animation... that's a feature you get for just switching your Player Icon when you play URF on any champion.
It evolves as you level... which some skins already do and Kayle does by default.
It has a unique CTRL+5 emote... that other skins use already.

It's only "Transcendent" in it's price tag. If Riot wanted to make the skin it's own tier. It'd require a level of development and effort comparable to Elementalist Lux, an Ultimate Skin which pretty much set Riot at an unmatched standard for their Ultimate Skins (Which is why Gun Goddess MF, KDA Seraphine and Soul Fighter Samira were blasted so much for being considered the same tier and why Spirit Guard Udyr and Pulsefire Ezreal had to be visually reworked).

[christofferovergaard]

the DQ story that team might have won a game, but i sincerely hope they that blight remains on their carriers for years to come
