As a result, *fire* is immediately banned from all tournaments hosted by Psyonix until January 1, 2022.

*fire*'s actions in the past month (predominantly via Discord) have repeatedly violated CRL Rules (https://esports.rocketleague.com/crlrules/) and RLCS rules (https://battlefy.com/leagues/rlcs/seasons/2020/rules).
