BC.Game CEO asks Valve to reset team’s VRS points

BC.Game CEO Ali “Ako” Muhanned asked Valve to reset the team’s VRS points to zero after a rule change altered its regional assignment.

BC.Game CEO Ali “Ako” Muhanned has asked Valve to reset the team’s Valve Regional Standings (VRS) points to zero after a rule change placed its new roster in a different region.

The change affects regional assignments after roster changes under the Counter-Strike Major Supplemental Rulebook. Muhanned wants BC.Game to compete in the Asian VRS from zero points and qualify through results earned by its current five-player roster.

The roster includes three Asian players: Aset “asap” Salkhimbekov, Tengis “mzinho” Batjargal and Garidmagnai “Senzu” Bayarsaikhan. Muhanned described the trio as the team’s core and noted their experience at the highest level of Asian Counter-Strike.

“We understand why Valve introduced stricter regional rules. The integrity of the system needs to be protected, and we respect that,” Muhanned wrote. “But it’s difficult for us to accept that our situation is being treated the same as every other case.”

His proposal would remove BC.Game’s existing ranking, inherited points and previous results. Only results achieved by the five players in the current roster would count after the reset.

“No previous ranking. No inherited points. No advantage,” Muhanned wrote. “We’re not asking to be treated better than anyone else. We’re asking not to be treated worse.”

He added that BC.Game did not want to remove another player solely to resolve the regional issue. The appeal ended with a request to let the roster earn its position through matches: “Start us from zero. Let us play. Let the server decide. 0 points. 5 players. 3 weeks.”
