In the past few weeks, there have been a lot of Ladder Tours started in lower current gen tiers (specifically UULT, RULT, NULT, ULT). This has caused a discussion within the Tiering Council about how suspects should be done during these times, because otherwise there's essentially a month period where no tiering action can occur. As a result, we would like to allow Tier Leaders the option to use Ladder Tour alts as an alternative to the suspect tag when qualifying for suspect requisites.
We would like to standardize this option by saying that ladder alts need the same GXE and game requisites to qualify for a suspect. There is a slight concern about cheating being easier because people often ladder past the point where they would've achieved reqs, so we advise that Tier Leaders either check whether the alt's numbers are fraudulent soon after the post is made, or for the player that achieved reqs to show the leaderboard in the Ladder Tour room that shows the same GXE and ELO as their screenshot so it can be verified.
We'll be leaving this thread open for a few days to gather feedback, but the plan is to implement this if there isn't major criticism after this period.
