IGL of EQ Cerise Denies The Allegations
EQ Cerise and CLG Red met each other in the lower round of Open qualifiers. In the game, EQ Cerise made a comeback to win the series by 2-1, after losing the first match. However, the decision has now been overruled and EQ Cerise is disqualified from the tournament. Valorant officials in their post mentioned that there will be further investigation on the same.
EQ Cerise’s IGL, Amber, took to her Twitter to voice her opinion. He mentioned, “Wait till riot gives our player a pardon and makes all the CLG players look like maniacal children.”
The fact that these CLG red players get paid and lost to us, and are now calling us dogshit due to a false vanguard claim is disgusting. Wait till riot gives our player a pardon and makes all the CLG players look like maniacal children.

Amber also replied to the post, where Valorant announced the disqualification of her team. She exclaimed that the player who is alleged to using the third-party software was bottom fragging in the map and if does come out that her teammate was cheating it s*cks.
I'm going on record to flat-out deny this. Our game against CLG was extremely close. The player in question who allegedly was using 3rd party software was bottom fragging that map. If it does come out that my teammate was cheating that sucks. We would have won the match anyways. https://t.co/aMTjDCC0eK

At the end, Amber posted a twit longer and concluded, “I would like to emphasize that we do not condone cheating nor do we support people who think cheating is okay. We were completely unaware and feel like we have been completely blindsided by how things have been transpiring these past two days.”
CLG Red will now play Gen.G Black in their next game.
