PGL has officially changed their competition law, and currently professional players may be warned or even fined if using Trashtalk too often in matches.

"The players should limit the use of the general chat frame in the game for the following situations: Good luck to the opponent (" GLHF ") in the beginning of the match and writing" GG "at the end of the match. The use of chat excessively or unnecessarily in addition to these situations is not encouraged.

It is also noted that the encouraged players only use the common chat frame for appropriate messages, such as good luck or thanks to the opponent for playing. In the new law, it also states that if there is an unnecessary message on a regular basis - which can be understood here as Trashtalk - it may be sanctioned under the decision of the Organizing Committee.

In the post comment, netizens quickly joked that Team Falcons would now be in trouble, because they often use Trashtalk in matches to make the opponent lose their temper.
