After the controversial claims of Ninja’s Time In against Built By Gamers (BBG), everybody had their eyes on the Valorant Knights Before Christmas tournament, organized by Pittsburg Knights.After the initial disqualification of BBG without substantial evidence, everyone was upset with the organizers. However, they soon went back on their decision and allowed BBG to continue.While we were disappointed in the initial DQ, we are grateful for the quick resolution and invitation to remain in the tournament. That said, the team has elected to forgo the remainder of the tournament as we prepare for upcoming events.— BBG (@builtbygamers) December 20, 2020BBG clarified on Twitter that even though they were happy for the quick resolution, the team would not continue in the Valorant tournament and instead forfeit their match against Gen.G Esports.Valorant Knights Before Christmas quarterfinalsQuarterfinal 1 (Gen.G vs. Built By Gamers)BBG forfeited the match, and Gen.G won the match by default, qualifying for Semifinal 1.Quarterfinal 2 (Pittsburgh Knights vs. XSET)XSET took the first match on Split 6-13.
