absolutely no idea. Would have assumed the online mode would have had anticheat.

Though, was the tournament held online? TBH, skimmed through the article really fast

I assume even if it was over LAN it would include multiple copies of the game talking to each other. That means that the game allows you to upload skins from your game to other people. Which rases security concerns for me.

or, as simpler explanation: the footage was captured from a device which was running the modded game.

edit: or, from the stream of the person using modded game.
