Intel Extreme Mastersin sääntökirja päivittyi, ja mukana oli osio '7.10.7 - Suicide During Matches'. Kohta kuului seuraavasti:
"A player is not allowed to intentionally cause suicides of their player character. This includes using the "kill" command or using map features to deny kills to the opposing team (such as jumping off on Vertigo)."
Nyttemmin IEM on kuitenkin ilmoittanut muuttavansa päätöstään, ja että pykälä laitetaan hyllylle välittömästi.
"IEM promises to engage in a deeper discussion about the rule in question with the Counter-Strike Professional Players' Association to ensure that all efforts to improve the viewing experience for fans at home are fully aligned with all relevant stakeholders".
