match throwing in the Rainbow Six Pro League.<\/p>\n<p>This rather unusual situation occurred in October during a Rainbow Six match in Asia-Pacific League 2020 North Division.<\/p>\n<p>Japanese R6S team Cyclops Athlete Gaming were up against QConfirm, but instead of doing their best to win, they&#8217;ve decided to go with off-meta Operators and played visibly below their level.<\/p>\n<p>That was obvious even during the game, but if further proof was needed, their head coach Hibiki &#8220;XQQ&#8221; Motoyama admitted soon after via Twitter that the team had ended deliberately thrown the match.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Read more: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ginx.tv\/en\/rainbow-six-siege\/rainbow-six-siege-caster-geo-exposes-sexist-teammate-while-in-game\" target=\"_blank\"

specific team as their opponent.<\/p>\n<p>Due to a strange way the Pro League&#8217;s seeding system works, they actually ended up with a higher seeding position because they lost that match.<\/p>\n<p>If Cyclops Athlete Gaming lost against QCon&#64257;rm, due to the way the Swiss format system worked, Cloud9 would no longer be able to finish above them, securing seeding for Cyclops.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If CAG wins as well as C9 win = can&#8217;t secure the seed for Major,&#8221; explained XQQ in a now-deleted tweet. &#8220;Other cases leads to CAG getting the seed so CAG needs &#8220;lose&#8221; today.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\"

of this, Ubisoft states that they are already undergoing a revision of the Rainbow Six APAC League North Division system for Season 2021, in order to make sure that teams will not be put in a situation where a loss is actually beneficial to their chances.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Still, the team made a serious offence by acting in a non-competitive manner, and that goes against the League&#8217;s Global Rulebook.<\/p>\n<p>Because of that Ubisoft has decided that some measures need to be taken, or otherwise, the competitive integrity of the Pro League would be compromised<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Read more: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ginx.tv\/en\/rainbow-six-siege\/rainbow-six-siege-world-cup-announced-ubisoft\" target=\"_blank\"

handed a 6-month suspension.<\/p>\n<p>This decision takes effect immediately and lasts until 20th May of 2021.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, Cyclops Athlete Gaming as an organisation will be fined US&#36;5,000.<\/p>\n<p>XQQ has already left his position at Cyclops Athlete Gaming.<\/p>\n<p>The situation is unfortunate for everyone involved because it was in no way a clear case of cheating or gaining an advantage in an uncompetitive manner, and hopefully, the new system Ubisoft is currently working on will provide a better framework in order to avoid this in the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cyclops Athlete Gaming, one of the best Rainbow Six teams in Asia, avoided punishment after admitting to match throwing in the Rainbow Six
