This saw the administration disqualify the entirety of Complexity in the Pool Play stage. The HCS completed their investigation, and now Spartan has told his side of the story after a ban and removal from his team.
Update to the HCS ruling
HCS officials shared an update tothe competitive rulingon June 17, 2025:
“After further investigation, it was later discovered that the SSD device itself was part of a separate batch owned by the administration. The unapproved software was still loaded onto the SSD as described above with a flash drive.
The ownership of the SSD was never weighed in the determination of the ruling. The Administrative team will be doing an audit of the existing fleet of hardware and removing any anomalous drives which are inconsistent with the rest of the other SSDs to ensure this doesn’t happen again.”
The original ruling alleged the SSD was not one of the tournament-issued devices. That has since been rectified, but as stated, holds no weight in terms of the investigation. Spartan still added unapproved hardware to get a competitive leg up.
