Cheating
We are very heavy against cheating of any sorts - whether that is getting help from your stream chat, someone offering advice, weird shuffling, taking cards from elsewhere - nothing is tolerated.

We do not tolerate cheating, and we will make sure to investigate and prosecute cheaters to the best of our ability.
