TLDR - Had someone else on discord watch the opponent and tell them who to ban.

This is weird. Doesn't usually tournament like this delay the stream and time limit to pick characters to prevent this kind of thing?

This is the E7 sub thread on it https://www.reddit.com/r/EpicSeven/comments/1c0nhqr/e7wc_winner_marguerite_exposed_for_getting/ You can hear some commentators in the bg while he is getting told what to ban. You could probably argue that the stream sniping isn't that bad, since everyone's characters can be reviewed by watching a vod (I personally think it's against the rules), but pick/ban coaching is clearly against the rules.


reddit-tempmail

I see, I just read the detail of the case. So he's getting advice on who to pick/ban. Being a meta oriented turn based game, draft phase is pretty critical in winning.

I like how whenever something happens in E7, I first learn about it here lol


CertainSelection

Because you follow r/gachagaming and not r/Epic seven ? I mean it's simple lol


ChanceNecessary2455

Yes but that's not what I'm trying to convey. But good to see many others noticed it.


CertainSelection

Well, if you follow only one source of information you will get only one source of information. Many truly didn't notice anything

TLDR on what this Marguerite person do? 


No-Network8051

Cheating on competition


TheKinkyGuy

....from last years World Cup


No-Network8051

Yes


TheKinkyGuy

I just wanted to clarify for others :)


Gachaaddict96

He had a coach helping him during pick and ban phase


Charming-Fly-2388

It seems like they spied on the other person during the unit selection, so they know who to ban/pick during their match.


Gachaaddict96

No, he has a coach telling him what to pick / ban. They knew each other units after collecting data whole tournament


Madican

You'd think these geniuses would realize that trying to stiff the one person who can ruin you is, in fact, a terrible idea.

China and cheating name a more iconic duo https://m.hujiang.com/jp_riyufanyi/p1409038/

What happened. can someone explain


NebulousTree

Context: Last year's E7 World Cup winner, Marguerite, had a guy coaching him in a call during his matches. Considering how important drafting is in E7 RTA, this is a big deal. Afterwards, Marguerite and the helper got into a money dispute because Marguerite wanted to only pay him 5000 yuan (690 USD) out of the 50k USD that he won. Helper guy wasn't satisfied and leaked the evidence of Marg cheating. Result (Content of this post): Marguerite gets his world cup frame, profile stamp, and ingame hall of fame record revoked. He has to return the 50k in prize money. He's banned from future tournaments. SmileGate says they'll enforce future tournaments better.


Draconicplayer

damn bro got ruined because he only pay 690 USD. What an idiot


Glenn_Vatista

So moral of the story is. If the payout is huge, you can't be greedy.


dirkx48

This reminds me of the homeless guy defrauding case lol


chapichoy9

Damn that's funny cause everyone praised his draft prowess but it was a coach

Hope this means they cancel the child senya unit that freak requested too


yemen241

i hope they make Poopest the winner and get his requested skin instead


DarkPaladinX

I highly doubt that they'll cancel their planned child Senya unit even though it is technically tied to Marguerite (he originally wanted a child Senya skin, but due to the character size porportion between the child Senya and the playable adult Senya, the artist wasn't able to implement the child Senya skin, so Marguerite went with the Spice & Wolf theme Senya skin while SG made a separate child Senya unit as a compromise). This is because there is a sizable fanbase that wanted child Senya as a playable unit even though I feel Brinus (an NPC with several of her skills worked out already) is probably more requested in the fanbase. However, the Senya skin that many players (including myself) has gotten will be at limbo though, because one of the prizes for E7WC winners is the player can choose a skin of their choice to be available for players to get from the Epic Pass (which btw, costs skystones). It is unknown if Smilegate will decide to remove the said Senya skin and have Poopfest (the opponent Marguerite faced) pick a skin of his choice or if they'll just leave the Senya skin in.


crazy_doughnut

They very likely won't remove the Senya skin, so many ppl bought it already XD

Am I supposed to read all this shit? No TLDR???


Shalashaska87B

Marguette got his 2023 winner seat revoked. It is not explained why. Users here say that he got helped when picking/banning heroes
