ESL quickly caves on IEM Rio Major changes after Gaules, CS:GO community outcry
Counter-Strike’s IEM Rio Major 2022 Challengers Stage has been a phenomenal showcasing of Brazilian pride. The South American rosters have had the cheers of the crowd behind them in every match, but this could be a problem for certain rosters.
In an effort to prevent members of the IEM Rio Major crowd from helping certain teams, ESL removed the X-ray feature and the minimap. But after community backlash, possibly sparked by popular Brazilian CS:GO streamer and community member Gaules, ESL quickly backtracked and reverted the changes.
