This one is totally the right call. I think that the rule could stand to be improved, but its the right call. This has happened to several big name teams at several events, resulting in a DQ in elims. It happened Week 1 in QTR1-1 at FLR. 2056/217/1518 were up against us, and in the endgame 1518 brushed one of our towers.
