FoV 120 allowed in tournaments

Hello! 

I know I can set the FoV to 120, by changing the parameter cl_fovScale "1.55" the profile.cfg file and other settings in the autoexec.cfg, even if the max FoV you can set in the game settings is 110. 

I know that it is possible to manage and modify the profile.cfg and the autoexec.cfg files, with favorite preferences, and I can still play tournaments without any problem. 

My question is the following: is setting the FoV to 120 allowed in tournaments? Can I play the tournaments with the FoV set to 120?

Thank you, 

Valkyyrie19

    I would not touch the config files outside the parameters allowed by the in game settings.
    However, it is a good question. I wish we could get an official answer to it.

    This type of question was raised back when some players used the config files to remove muzzle flash.
    It was controversial back then, but as far as I remember Respawn did not state anything officially. However, they removed/reduced muzzle flash on a few guns.
    I think your best bet would be to contact EA directly.
