❗ Statement on Tournament Invitations At RUSH B, we stand for fair competition and a healthy esports environment. Unfortunately, we face systemic barriers that prevent us from competing on equal terms. Over the past year, our team has been excluded from invitations to key tournaments, including European Pro League, CCT, RES Relog, Exort, Thunderpick, Frost and Fire, and YaLLa Compass, despite consistent performance and proven integrity. CCT invited us to only 1 out of 15 tournaments and hasn’t included us even in their closed qualifiers since. Other organizers have either ignored us or provided formal responses without follow-up. We’ve confirmed that many of these tournaments are managed by the same administrators, raising concerns about transparency and fairness in the invitation process. A competitive esports scene thrives on diversity and healthy rivalry, and all stakeholders should be invested in fostering this. Valve’s new ranking system emphasizes integrity, transparency, and equal opportunity as pillars for growth. Yet, many organizers continue practices that undermine these principles, leaving promising teams like ours sidelined. We call on tournament operators to prioritize openness and accountability in their invitation processes. Ignoring Valve’s guidelines not only damages the competitive ecosystem but also sets a dangerous precedent for the future of esports. Esports deserves a competitive environment where performance and dedication are valued above all else. @valvesoftware @CounterStrike @ESIC_Official @OfUnited21 @euproleague_ @esports_exort @GRIDesports @cctour_gg @edenesportsgg @YaLLaCompass @Thorin @RLewisReports @luismmira @STYKOcs @G2m0NESY @RelogMedia @ThourCS2 @CS2News_EN @cs2news @HLTVorg @Ozzny_CS2 @3kliksphilip @GeT_RiGhT @XGodDosia @CS_PerfectWorld @statsmeister1 @FACEITcs @oddin_gg @ProdigyAgencyGG @ESL @ESLCS @BanKsEsports @Metizport @v1nsoncasts @allan_hender @BDogCS @JRTTVee @HugoTV @launders @Mauisnake @ohnePixel
