The women's team "noot noot" was disqualified from the World Championship qualifiers due to allegations of cheating

Yesterday, during the group stage of the American qualifiers for the World Championship - VCT Game Changers Series 3, a match took place between "noot noot" and "Complexity GX3." After two maps with an overall score of 1:1, Riot Games announced that the "noot noot" team would receive an automatic loss and be disqualified from the event due to suspicion of unfair play, which came to light thanks to anti-cheat measures.

The team began their qualification journey with a victory over "Disguised GC" with a score of 2-1, but their next match against "Shopify Rebellion GC" ended in a 1-2 defeat, leading the team to the lower bracket. The match against "Complexity GX3" in the elimination round was fiercely contested, with both teams winning one map each, and the decisive map was Haven. Before the final map, Riot Games took over two hours to investigate the situation and ultimately decided to disqualify "noot noot" from the tournament, declaring "Complexity GX3" the automatic winner of the third map.

Representatives of the organization responded to Riot Games' statement, stating that they have no information about why this happened.

Unfortunately, our run at GC3 comes to an end as Riot has disqualified us. We have no further information on why this has occurred and are awaiting additional details. We apologize to all our fans.

Currently, it is unknown which of the female players is suspected of cheating, but Riot Games has shared a video that raises questions about "malibu." The esports athlete with only 1 HP made a fantastic ace against "Shopify Rebellion GC" which allowed the team to secure victory.
