I was watching the EWC and noticed a lot of questionable plays from a macro perspective. Players looking at walls instead of clearing angles, moving around the map in ways that don't make much sense, failing to use their utility, and so on. For example, in Round 28 on Breeze between BBL and NAVI (the final round of the match), what exactly was Ruxic doing from 3:25:16 to 3:25:21? Any normal player would be holding the CT side, since that was the only area his team wasn't watching. Instead, he jumped down from the box, pulled out his knife, and started shift-walking while staring at a wall, which gave Lar0k a free kill.

Unfortunately, I didn't document the other examples, but doesn't it seem strange that this kind of thing happens so often in tournaments that players are supposedly trying their hardest to win? Idk

I've seen it in vct too. It's just terrorist moments for some players.

yeah, like Alfajor jumping TWICE on Haven while he was shooting.... they said "accidental scroll jump", but I don't think I buy it, considering he's probably using scroll to jump for a while now.... I'm not a conspiracy theorist but like, hard to believe some things aren't intentional

Ruxic looking at a wall is something Iron players would do, ngl. and he's a great player

its just regional qualifier, not the main event.

okay, but that isn't an excuse to make questionable plays that any Gold player wouldn't do...
