Tencent's Decision on Alleged KOG and Valdus at PMWL 2020!

Tencent’s Decision on Alleged KOG and Valdus at PMWL 2020! An immediate controversy occurred on the first day of Super Weekend Week 2 at PUBG Mobile World League (PMWL 2020) East 2020 after an alleged team-up incident or collaboration between two Thai teams, King of Gamers Club (KOG) and Valdus the Murder.

This incident occurred during the early match, the first match at Erangel on July 24, 2020. While traveling around the complex in the north west of the Shelter, King of Gamers (KOG) managed to knock down three players from Valdus the Murder.

With only one player left, his last player’s location was exposed as he threw smoke grenades to provide cover for his team-mates. Usually this is an easy elimination for other teams, especially a team as strong as KOG, which also still has four members standing.

Don’t know why, KOG, chose to rotate rather than make sure everything is eliminated and take important kills points. During rotation, KOG did manage to get one kill but left the other players. This was very strange because, there was no clear reason for them to do it. At that time, the safety zone was immediately next to them and they were not shot from other teams. You can see the incident below.

VALDUS ‘Manun “aRMJoNe” Yaepsungnoen, the only member still alive, was able to bring two of his teammates back to life.

This caused many fans to speculate whether KOG had just let Valdus live. Adding to the speculation that the two teams come from the same region, Thailand.

Tencent and PUBG Mobile Esports investigated the incident and made a decision that the KOG and Valdus players were innocent. This was announced only on the Thai live stream from PMWL 2020 yesterday. Her caster announced that officials were investigating the camera and microphone sound footage during the incident and found that neither team had been involved in any unfair play.

Maybe KOG rotates because they don’t want to waste time killing at the start of the game. Teams may want to get into more strategic positions on the map when the zone shrinks, while they face less resistance from other teams. Maybe also because they lacked intel in their area and didn’t want to get a third party while confirming the murder to VALDUS.

In that match, KOG ended up in ninth position while VALDUS was in 12th place in the PMWL 2020 Super Weekend Week 2 Days 3 yesterday.
