The Epic League is facing repercussions for not using delay during the GOTV stream of CIS RMR events.

On top of that, there was no anti-cheat, no TeamSpeak records, and no replay option for teams. Worst of all, teams that placed 5th to 6th had no clear information about future matches. Following the no-delay stream of GOTV, some pro players voiced their concern about the competitive integrity of these matches.
The lack of delay paired with the no anti-cheat put question marks surrounding the whole tournament. The pro-CSGO community has been voicing their frustrations on social media platforms regarding these recent CIS RMR events.
Among them, “s1mple” was very vocal about the mismanagement of these very important matches.
Some analysts are even calling for a rematch of the whole RMR events in the CIS region for the sake of the competitive integrity of the game, but that may not come to fruition any time soon.
