  • 3. Voice communications of all teams will be recorded for every game;
  • 4. Webcams of the players will capture what is happening on the player’s screen; this video feed will also be recorded for every game;
  • 5. All matches of StarLadder CIS RMR will be played on FACEIT platform using the FACEIT anti-cheat software.

Recall that at StarLadder CIS RMR 2021 will be drawn $100,000, as well as 1,500 to 2,000 RMR points for the teams that took the first five places.
