LOUD Saadhak laughed off Riot Game’s warning after receiving some stern words for shooting an opponent’s corpse in aVCT Americasmatch against Leviatán.
When it comes to player conduct in the server, Riot is a strict tournament organizer. Players have previously been slapped with fines for “air-sucking d***” inZellsis’ case, or warnings for tea bagging and corpse shooting inPaper Rex’s case.
According toRiot’s Esports Global Code of Conduct, pro players aren’t allowed to use gestures to “transmit messages that are obscene, vulgar, provocative”, which is why those previous instances came to light.
And it seems Riot hasn’t taken too kindly to LOUD’s most recent incident of corpse shooting during their VCT Americas match against Leviatán in the group stage. LOUD’s IGL Saadhak revealed he received a warning from Riot for it.
🚨 AGORA: Durante a live que está sendo feita agora, Saadhak fala para o chat que chegou a tomar um aviso por ter cavado o corpo do Kingg na última partida, e aí, vocês acham que a medida foi justa ou é algo de jogo?pic.twitter.com/6isbXMD5cF
“What I can say is that I got a from Riot,” Saadhak revealed on his stream. “Because we were shooting the corpse of kiNgg,” Saadhak said as he laughed through it all.
According to Saadhak, the body shooting was in light retaliation of Leviatán’s Mazino shooting one of their corpses during their first map of Bind. Although, the only player who didn’t have their corpses shot was Aspas.
It’s unknown if Leviatán also got a warning from Riot for shooting bodies, as Riot doesn’t disclose player warnings and fines they give out. So we will need to wait for a Leviatán player to reveal it.
