- Each team will get one playthrough.
- The seeding is yet to be determined.
Bracket Stage
- All stages have 17 maps per pool. 6 Nomods, 2 Hiddens, 2 Hardrocks, 3 DoubleTimes, 3 FreeMods, and a tiebreaker.
- All stages have 1 ban per team
- Round of 32 and Round of 16: Best of 9
- Quarter Finals and Semi Finals: Best of 11
- Finals and Grand Finals: Best of 13
Match Start
- The match lobby will be created by a 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 strictly 10 minutes to gather enough players to play the match.
- If the first team to join has shown enough members, they may leave and warm up while waiting for the other team.
- Warmups are only available during the first 15 minutes of match start. The first team to join with eligible members gets the first warmup.
- Warmups may not be longer than 4 minutes.
- Once all players have joined the lobby, captains will be asked to !roll; the roll system will use the same as UKCC Roll System.
- Each team has 1 ban per match. Banned maps are effectively removed from the mappool for the duration of the match and are not allowed to be picked.
During Match
- The referee can give host to the players for warmups only. The referee will have host for the entire match after warmups, unless a map in the mappool is unsubmitted. A team will select a map by naming the map in the multiplayer chat, and the referee will select it.
- There is no restriction on map selection (aka pick) order; teams may select any available map at any time regardless of mod.
- On Freemod picks, at least 4 players from each team must use a mod (NM does not count). Allowed mods are: HD, HR, EZ, FL and any combination of these. The EZ multiplier is variable based on pooler evaluations. EZ counts as its own mod.
- There are no restrictions on what mods a team can use. You may go 4xHD, 4xHR, 4xEZ or 4xFL if your team desires to do so.
- Teams have 2 minutes to select a map; if they fail to choose in the allotted time, the map choice is rolled by the referee. This will have no effect on the order of picks afterward.
- Once the map choice is locked in, players will have 2 minutes to ready up plus referee leniency. The referee will start the match when all players are ready.
Match End
- In the case of a tie, the tiebreaker is played. Freemod rules apply, but all players are allowed to go Nomod.
- The winner of a map is determined by which team's scores add up to a higher number. Basically, that just means failed scores count. NF is optional, but encouranged.
- Team fails will act as a team disconnection. See below for details.
- In the case of a genuine disconnection, if the map result was ambiguous (uncertain), the map will be replayed. However, if the map was already clearly decided and there is substantial evidence of the fact, the referee may apply common sense to give the point to whoever would have won the map.
- By ambiguous the uncertainty of the final scores must be within a certain difference, labeled in the table below. The result is also ambiguous if the disconnect happened within the first quarter of the map.
Uncertainty Limit
- Ro32 -> 100k
- Ro16 -> 120k
- QF -> 140k
- SF -> 160k
- F -> 180k
- GF -> 200k
