Definitely not.

This isn't surprising to anyone who's closely been following league of legends for a long time(and been paying attention to their interaction with individuals and journalists). Riot have a history of doing draconian shit and basically trying to ruin those that get in their way or are highly critical of them. They're way more tempered with how they go about it nowadays but they still do it. It's just the culture of that company.

With that said, riot also really know how to make and support games suited for e-sports. It's honestly one of their only redeeming qualities.

edit: typo

Does that matter? He played terribly today. So yes, he might be an upgrade. But he effectively wasn't for the purposes of the 2 series that were played today. V1 would have been better off with zellsis. Which obviously wasn't possible cause of the suspension so w/e

Just saw the comp Rise locked in for map 3. Basically a solo smoker astra on bind. Terrible idea. Pretty sure they just auto lose.

He'll be back

Not an upgrade when said "upgrade" plays like trash, which is what happened today unfortunately. All of V1 looked off today. Wouldn't be surprised if not having zellsis has something to do with it.

Bind?? Not banned by V1?? You're obviously from a different reality then

No estoy de acuerdo. Las consecuencias son importantes para disuadir a las personas de la explotación.

Man, such a terrible performance from branted on pheonix during map 1. Losing duels all day

Wtf? Using post-plant utility to deny a bomb defuse is not equivalent to exploiting, nor will it ever be considered such. Maybe the sova darts should be looked at if that's true. The rest of your post is nonsense.

Not saying that this match was match fixed but you should really do some research. People will and do match-fix literally anything and everything they can when it comes to sports, especially in some eastern countries. Was watching this podcast a couple months ago with Richard Lewis and Declan Hill, this well know academic/journalist that's worked cases and written books on the subject and is considered the world's foremost expert on match-fixing in sports. He mentioned he's seen match-fixers even fixing soccer matches between like random teams of 13/14 year old children and that as time passed we would inevitably see it more and more in esports. which we kind of already have. Been plenty of it in CSGO and not too long ago we saw china's LDL(secondary league of legends pro league) shutdown temporarily to investigate some match-fixing that had been taking place.

Once again, not saying that the immortal/EG match was an example of this(I highly doubt it was actually). But yea, it's definitely always a possibility. And more so with those competing at lower levels as they're the ones more in need and likely to be willing to fix for $$$.
