Connection controversy
During the set between Grayson and Cosmos, a lag test was requested after the first game. When the results came back, both Grayson and Cosmos passed, although Grayson's connection was noticeably worse than Cosmos's. The second game was played, however Cosmos claimed the lag was still present. Cagt requested another lag test from Grayson, and after reviewing it, decided to disqualify Grayson. This roused up controversy online, as not only did Grayson pass both lag tests - meaning he shouldn't have been disqualified in the first place - but he was also up 2 games. In response, Cagt offered Grayson a fully-compensated trip to any tournament after the pandemic was over. [1][2]
