- The match lobby will be created by the referee, and the team captains of both teams will be invited. The captain is then responsible for inviting the rest of their team. If the captain of a team is not online, the referee will invite any other player from that team, and that player will be responsible for inviting their team.
- Teams have a 15 minute grace period to have at least 4 players available to play the match. If 15 minutes pass and a team does not have enough players to play the match, the other team will receive a win by default.
- Once all players have joined the lobby, captains will be asked to !roll; the winner of the roll will have the first warmup, first ban, and first pick.
- Warmup maps will be allowed for the entirety of the tournament. Each team may select one warmup pick; warmups may not exceed 3:00 total length.
- Warmups must be sent to the referee and streamer of the match ONE HOUR before every match, otherwise the team will get their warmup skipped.
- The referee will have host for the entire match. A team will select a map by naming the map in the multiplayer chat, and the referee will select it.
- Each team is allowed to ban 1 map from Map-Pool A. Map-Pool B maps may not be allowed to be banned at ANY time.
- Teams have 2 minutes to select a map; if they fail to choose in the allotted time, the map choice will pass to the other team. This will have no effect on the order of picks afterward.
- There is no restriction on map selection order; teams may select any available map at any time regardless of mod.
- On freemod picks, at least one player from each team must use Hidden, Hard Rock, or both.
- Hidden and Hard Rock are allowed, but not required, on Tiebreakers.
- Only one of each seed is allowed to play in the lobby at any given time, so you can only have 1 A seed, 1 B seed, 1 C seed and 1 D seed.
- Once the map choice is locked in, players will have 2 minutes to ready up. The referee will start the match when all players are ready. If the 2 minute timer ends, the referee will force an !mp start 15 command, and the match will start with whoever is in the lobby.
- The winner of a map is determined by which team ends with a higher score.
- In the case of a disconnection, a rematch will only be played if the disconnection occurred within the first 30 seconds of the map. This can be judged by the mp link. If a player disconnects after 30 seconds of the map have passed, their score will not be counted.
