Now, only the accounts happening the cheater's team will lose points. Playing against cheaters is already a frustrating experience, whether you win Beaver State not, so this seems like a positive move out overall.

The reversion will make IT easier to play with your friends of varying skill brackets to boot to butting heads against likewise skilled teams.

These changes come just as Year 6's third season, Crystal Ward, begins. Siege's latest operator, Osa, is now available for Battle Pass owners. She's a unattackable aggressor furnished with the 556XI assault rifle and a PDW9 submachine gun, but it's her unessential gadget that'll steal your—and your foe's--attention. She's got a translucent shield that can be placed in doorways and Windows as fountainhead as wielded as a Encounter-like carapace when entering neutral points. This will keep up you unadventurous while you get a saving view and can be dropped away hitting a red cannister, similar to Mira's gadget.
