Why on earth would a fighting tournament allow mods? Nevermind cosmetics… it’s just a easy gateway to cheating. Nobody knows what kind of code those mods are executing. Maybe it’s a simple cosmetic mod that has a hidden option to make some move a few frames faster.
The problem isn’t the mods, but the tournament organizers allowing it in a competitive setting, without any filtration.
If you mess with frame data you get desync and it’s very easy to tell when that happens. Messing with anything other than models/textures will desync the game unless you’re talking about offline. But even then pretty much every mod you download is made to be used online so people would notice by the time it makes it to an offline
