"No evidence" of cheating at the ALGS Championship, says commissioner

The Apex Legends Global Series Championship came to its exciting conclusion on June 6, when Team Kungarna (formerly known as Bottom 20) surprised the world to clinch the North American title.

However last week, APAC South team Athaim, which placed third in its region's Championship Final, voiced concerns about the competitive integrity of the ALGS Championship. Athaim player 'Oatto' accused other teams of cheating, and believed that teams using faster hardware also had an advantage that would become apparent when LANs return. "We feel this online event has made some players look better than they really are, due to cheating or fast PCs," he told The Loadout.
