Hi everyone. Obviously there is a lot of consternation and confusion right now over the recent bans. I just wanted to clarify a few things.

As the official post says, playing on a client distributed by anybody other than us or our official partners could get you flagged for a ban. Yes, this means if you sideloaded the game you were likely flagged. Our official partners are Apple, Google, Flexion and Steam. We distribute the game on PC through the downloader at https://playcontestofchampions.com/ Those are the only official channels to get the game, if you used any other means you were likely flagged.

We tested this algorithm against hundreds of known good accounts without any false positives. Having said that, in any action this big, there might be edge cases that couldn't be accounted for in advance. We are obviously taking these reports seriously and investigating these cases.

There are hundreds of thousands like me and others using lineage os / crdroid and similar custom os. The system you are using seems to be faulty from the start. 2 of our friends were banned even though no cheating was used. We cannot understand how a great team that has been designing games with extremely complex code systems for 11 years and integrated this game into the PC version with Unity could make such a mistake.

My account was suspended yesterday for some BS 3rd party software violation. I have never installed from anywhere other than the Play store on my S23. Always been official. I mainly just do AQ in a retirement alliance. I'm not trying to do anything shifty. If they don't get this resolved I'm just going to delete the game. Been playing for 8 years and just stayed uncollected for years until they did the champ giveaways recently. So I decided to up one level, I think paragon. I don't care about 7 stars. I haven't been trying to finish any solo content. I'm basically on coast, and then get suspended for 7 days. No warning. Didn't do anything wrong. I got stuff expiring, missing daily rewards, and as a key contributor in AQ for my alliance it's not only affecting me, but their AQ rewards, too. Glad I never spent a bunch of money, just spent too much time. 😞

Dude, they suspended you. I don't think they are worried that much about threats of quitting.

They wrongly suspended my account. They probably don't care, which is all the more reason to just move on. Your opinion doesn't really matter, either.

I've been playing this game for over 7 years, never used any unofficial distibutions, only google play store + recently your pc launcher, yet I got banned.
To write a ticket I had to check my payments and after realising how much money I have spent I came into conclusion that is enough.
I WAS your legitimate client.
I WAS spending money.
I NEVER cheated.
Yet you banned me for 7 days resulting in me missing on raid, aw, aq rewards. This influenced my ally because there was not a possibilty to clear the map.
I got response to uninstall the game and reinstall from official distribution, well guess what, I HAD it from official distribution. I have lost all my trust in your company so I won't be returning to the game because I don't know when again You'll decide to wrongfully ban me.
You lost a client, I know nobody cares about me(well apart from my allymates - I was still in the game for them, despite all the bugs, all unfair defenders, etc.)

Farewell fellow summoners...


Zwierzakol was not an impostor

So a lot of players accounts were unfairly banned, i could say that cause mine was too, I have never ever used any illegal software, neither used any third party site to download the game..the worst part of it is we can't even prove our innocence, I'm ready to provide even the screen recordings on my device to prove that I'm not using any mods ..the support system of the game is so pathetic, it just purely shows the incompetence of the game team..I'll also like to adress everyone those who are commenting that you might have cheated, no we have not, I've been playing this game from 7 years and I know what not to do..just because it hasn't happened earlier, dosen't mean it won't happen, no one understands it until it happens to themselves..maybe it didn't effect you, but it is effecting the community in the long run..I am against the cheaters , i know the exhaustion of facing the cheaters, and I'm fine if you mistakenly banned the account, but atleast improve the support system and provide the chance to prove our innocence..I'm beyond disappointed with the team right now
