The only restriction that exists here for registration is that you cannot be in the top 10k in ranks. This is meant to be a beginner's tournament, and many, if not all the maps are catered towards those who are below 10k. We don't want an unfair advantage! There's two exceptions to this rule.
1. If you're the appropriate rank upon registration but rank past 10k before the tournament begins, if you are still below 9k, you're considered eligible.
2. If you rank while the tournament is taking place, that cannot be stopped, but please refrain from doing so (ranking too far below 9k might require modifications/eliminations).

Registering to this tournament is fairly simple. You just have to fill in the registration form and join the Discord Server, and you're all set! We'll accept as much players as we can for now, but only the top 32 will go through the qualifiers stage.
There's a lot of ground to cover in the Rules section, so please bear with me as I cover the various sections. If you already know how a general tournament works, a refresher never hurts, but there is also one additional rule that'll take place at the very start.

6. If both players tie on the TieBreaker, the TieBreaker will be replayed.
