What parameters are they using to block non-SD devices?

The game uses Anti-Cheat Expert which notoriously blocks any device running Linux, other than the Steam Deck LCD (yes, OLED is blocked too)

CPU is the speculation

Wish I knew it

Played the game for an hour or so on a Steam Deck OLED today. Works fine out of the box, didn't make any changes.

The easiest one would be to check for the SteamDeck=1 variable.

So if I added that as a launch argument it would work? Is it that simple?

It works on some games and not others.

I heard it works on Marvel Rivals but It didn't work when I tried it on Ironsight, it just kicked me out.

Rivals works on normal Linux desktops without any hacks

I think you missed a joke here.
