Adam Apicella, who was one of the original founding employees of MLG, has confirmed that the esports organization is not restricting livestreaming during the tournament in any way.

In what has been described as a “miscommunication,” some players and fans were led to believe that pros were banned from streaming while CWL Pro League matches were being held – after noticing that some weren’t as active during tournament clashes.

However, that’s clearly not the case – according to Apicella. He confirmed that the rumors about OpTic Gaming’s Seth ‘Scump’ Abner and other pro players being prevented from streaming during matches as incorrect, during an interaction with a Call of Duty fan on Twitter.

“We don’t care if players stream,” he explained. “We have been clarifying with teams to make sure that is understood. We want as much CoD content as possible being created.”
