In the new Intel Extreme Masters Rulebook, intentionally killing your character within CS:GO<\/a> is no longer allowed.<\/p>\n

The quote makes it clear that any method of ‘suicide’ is no longer allowed in IEM matches including commands or jumping off of the map on Vertigo, a map set in a high-rise building.<\/p>\n

Sometimes, a team deliberately dying or killing themselves has some advantages.<\/p>\n

Dying to a molotov provides less money to the enemy team than if you die to their SMGs in a round where they are seeking to farm money, as seen in 2017 when Na’Vi played Team Liquid<\/a>. They elected to die in flames rather than reward Liquid with extra money on top of a won round.<\/p>\n
