All Proton's versions seems wrongly detected as cheating : Official Proton and Proton-Experimental, but also Proton-GE.
So be careful and don't connect on the game if you're not banned yet !

Even though EA responded with the meanest message when I appealed my ban :
They started to silently unban people: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/4350#issuecomment-1453575624

I played a game today and confirmed that I'm no longer banned :smile:
