No publicly available evidence contains ProNeo's proof of intent.
So-called "queue sniping" isn't prohibited by the current ruleset (it's also a default "feature" for players who have each other in friends lists). Since there is some controversy around this topic in general, we will think of the ways to mitigate it with the future rules updates.
So, rule 14.3b: "‘ghosting’ (i.e. watching or monitoring an opponent’s live-stream in order to unfairly gain any sort of competitive advantage);" is not working here?
Okey then. How can you confirm the "draw bug" abuse when proneo has average draw percentage in pro ladder?Determining a person's "intent" is not really possible. That's why it's not really a consideration. Nor is it necessary in a case such as this. Decisions like these are based upon whatever factual evidence can be provided. It's a simple "yes" or "no" concerning each item. If the evidence is there, it's a yes. If not, it's a no. The judgement is made based on that, not trying to prove what's going on in someone else's mind.
Shame CDpr for unsubstantiated witch huntDuring this investigation, we have found solid proof of proNEO3001 violating paragraphs 14.3(a) and 14.3(c) of GWENT Masters ruleset. We have established thatroNEO3001 was exploiting the known game bug to receive favorable results in the otherwise lost matches several times during the season. -proNEO3001 was receiving unwarranted victories from the players forfeiting to him with a purpose to improve his position on the ladder.
Will you maybe give us some evidences then? Because we'd also like to be sure that this ban is deserved and now it doesn't seem like this with those "evidences" we've seen so far.At the end of my text I know very well PRONEO wintraded or bug abused and now he is banned as it should be.
Cool story, Pavel.Like Vlad mentioned, we've thoroughly investigated this case before reaching any type of verdict. Unfortunately, the evidence was damning - please bear in mind that the main violation here is bug abuse to gain a unfair advantage. Any player, who abuses any type of bug and/or exploit will receive bans and pro players are no exception.
We've also checked GameKings account and didn't find any evidence of bug abuse and/or win trading. As for name-calling we had a warring issued to Freddy some time ago - this type of behavior is unacceptable in the GWENT community.

This rule explicitly saying "live-stream" (but ofc can also be applied in case if a player trying to peek into opponent's screen during LAN tournament), so it doesn't have anything to do with so-called "queue sniping", where no gameplay is being observed by other party in order to get unfair advantage.So, rule 14.3b: "‘ghosting’ (i.e. watching or monitoring an opponent’s live-stream in order to unfairly gain any sort of competitive advantage);" is not working here?
It will be reset.Why does NEO still have more Crown Points than GameKingAT and why is he still ranked #1 for season 12? I thought that should have been a reset?

I don't understand your comment. You're implying that there is abnormal percentage of draws for some of these players? Re: the bug - it was fixed in it's due time. If you didn't know about it/didn't use it - good for you. ProNEO3001 clearly knew about its existence and clearly was abusing it in his matches. I'm not sure there is anything to debate here really.Cool story, Pavel.

1 place draw - 3.6%
2. 3.4%
3. 3.4%
4. 4.1%
So who cheating? And where can we read about all knowing game bug? And why it was not fixed for several months?
Sure, they don't need to. But since there're a lot of curious people, they can do it. It's not a big deal. We're all gamers, no matter where we live and what language we speak. We're all against cheating and unfair players. We just didn't see proneo cheating, he posted a lot of materials proofing he's clear. So we'd like to see evidences of opposite to be sure he's a cheater and that's all.As I said before CDPR doesn't need to give any "evidences".
They have all details and they are looking into it before taking any decision.
I wintraded and got my punishment.CDPR caught me as in this case they caught PRONEO.
So you can stop to defend wintraders and look your way.
This is turning into "They are punishing Russia players etc." by such people who is defending him.
Proneo isnt that skilled player.I know him since closedbeta.He everytime enters a tournament while playing online and fail in it when it comes to play LAN game.
It is debatable cause of statistics of pro ladder. He has average draw rate, even lower than other players. If he were abusing the bug, his draw rate should've been higher. So there could be two explanation:ProNEO3001 clearly knew about its existence and clearly was abusing it in his matches. I'm not sure there is anything to debate here really.
As I said before CDPR doesn't need to give any "evidences".
