- All matches in a given week will be played on the same mappool. The Winners Bracket and the Losers Bracket will always be on the same mappool at any given point of the tournament.
- This tournament will have no Hidden mappool. Instead, for every map, exactly two players on each team must toggle Hidden on. This does not apply for free mod.
The format of the pools will be as follows: - Group Stage: 7 (HD)NM / 4 (HD)HR / 5 (HD)DT / 3 Free Mod / 1 (HD)TB
- RO32 / RO16 / QF: 8 (HD)NM / 4 (HD)HR / 5 (HD)DT / 3 Free Mod / 1 (HD)TB
- SF: 9 (HD)NM / 4 (HD)HR / 6 (HD)DT / 3 Free Mod / 1 (HD)TB
- Finals / Grand Finals: 9 (HD)NM / 5 (HD)HR / 6 (HD)DT / 4 Free Mod / 1 (HD)TB
- On Free Mod picks, at least two players from each team must use Hidden, Hard Rock, or both. This is just like any other tournament -- the special Hidden rule does not apply. For example, NM/NM/HR/HR is allowed.
- On tiebreakers, exactly two players must use Hidden, just like the rest of the mappool. Hard Rock can be enabled on any player if desired, even the Hidden players.
- 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 10 minute grace period to have at least 4 players available to play the match. If 10 minutes pass and a team does not have enough players to play the match, the other team will receive a win by default.
- All matches must be played as a 4v4. No 3v3s or 3v4s allowed. Warmups also must be played as 4v4.
- Once all players have joined the lobby, captains will be asked to !roll; the winner of the roll will have the first warmup and their choice of first or second pick or ban, while the loser will have their choice of the remaining option. Note that there will be no warmups in group stage.
- The referee can give host to the players for warmups only. No player will have match host after warmups. A team will select a map by naming the map in the multiplayer chat, and the referee will select it.
- The referee is not allowed to play in the match.
- Each team is allowed 2 bans per match. Banned maps are effectively removed from the mappool for the duration of the match and are not allowed to be picked. A team is allowed to ban 2 maps from the same mod pool.
- Teams have 2 minutes (120 seconds) 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 are no restrictions on map picks (teams are allowed to pick from the same mod pool twice in a row).
- Once the map choice is locked in, players will have 90 seconds to ready up. The referee will start the match when all players are ready. If the 90 second 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's four scores add up to a higher number. Basically, that just means failed scores count.
- For any map and with no penalty, any player can add No Fail. This is to prevent their team from failing if they think it might happen. Any player playing with No Fail will have their score doubled at the end of the map.
- 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.
- This tournament does not use BWS.
