- captains are required to be in the discord server (refer to the above for instructions)
- a minimum of 2 players per team must be present within 10 minutes after the scheduled time
- scorev2 and NF will be enforced unless otherwise stated
- there is absolutely no tolerance for disrespect or misconduct by players, staff, and spectators. Discord, Twitch and osu! TOS must be abided by. Any behaviour that goes against this within or outside of the tournament noticed by staff will result in actions taken to provide a safe and comfortable environment. This can include removal from the tournament and future iterations.
- where there are no specific rules, administration voice over all.
- uncontrollable disconnects (for rounds) can include: internet, game crash, significant game lag, keyboard/tablet/mouse disconnect, natural disaster, cat, spilling water although please never have an open cup by your setup etc. || offset, background dim, leaderboard presence, and skins are not valid reasons for aborting
- Administration, Mappoolers, and Playtesters, are not permitted to play. Streamers, Commentators and Referees are permitted to play.
- at least 2 players on the team must be present to begin, there will be a 5 minute grace period
- reschedules are permitted, however the latest lobby will be June 13 @ 6 UTC
- missed maps/uncontrollable disconnects will be replayed at the end of the lobby or rescheduled
- maps will be played from NM1 to DT2 with a maximum of 2 minutes in between
- any mishaps must be communicated with referee
- maps will be played in order from NM1-DT2 and an optional second run. Alternate line-ups can be used and the highest combined score between 2 players during one run will be taken
example: first run: player 1 + 2 plays (1.5m total)
second run: player 1 + 3 plays (1.2m total)
we'll take the 1.5m total
- reschedules must be done 12 hours prior to the old AND new time
- warms ups are permitted with a maximum length of 3:30; must be SFW

- each team is permitted a 5 minute timeout once per match
- uncontrollable disconnections (refer to General Rules) within the first 30 seconds will be aborted
- in the event of an uncontrollable disconnection occurring after the 30 second mark, proof of disconnected player’s score or rough estimate of hypothetical score (chat log, stream, end result screen, play history) will be used under the discretion of the referee; if the score is ambiguous, a replay can be done if the other team agrees. If not, the point will go to the other team. (This can only occur once per team per match.)
- there will be 2 minutes to pick, and 2 minutes to ready up; failure to do so within the timer will result in loss of pick regardless if it is an internet issue; players are expected to be decently prepared. First failure to have a roster ready within the timer throughout the match will result in a warning + 45 seconds.
- Second failure throughout the match will result in a point to the other team
- pick restriction: none
- freemod rules: at least one player must have a mod
