New streaming requirements for tournaments
Streaming is now required before you can ready up for your tournament matches in PlayOS.
Why streaming matters
Cheater Protection. Every Match.
Your stream helps our team review disputes, investigate suspected cheating, and keep competition fair for everyone.
