- All times mentioned anywhere are in UTC+0. Use this to find your UTC timezone.

- Mappools and Base Schedules will be released around 18UTC Monday. If there are difficulties with this, it will be announced.
- Mappool selectors, Playtesters, Mappers and Music Producers are not allowed to participate in the tournament. Referees, Commentators and Streamers may participate if they wish to do so.

- The tournament will obide by Badgeability requirements with one exception being allowing referees to participate. Read the full list of Badgeability requirements here
- A referee will ping the captain of each team present 15 minutes before their qualifier lobby begins.
- If a captain is not online/unavailable, a player should inform the referee about this.
- Maps will be played from NM1 - FR1 only once.
- You are not competing only with the teams in your lobby, you are competing with EVERY team that plays qualifiers.
- Seeding will be done based on Z-sum
- For the nerds: You get the Z-Sum by converting each score to a value between 0 and 1 that represents the percentage of scores they are higher than, assuming a normal distribution. Then sum each team’s percentages, and rank from high to low. Yields a value from 0 to the total number of maps.
- A referee will create the match 5 minutes before the scheduled time. Each teams captain will be pinged 15 prior to the match.
- If a team is unable to show up within 5 minutes of the start of the lobby, they will lose their protect and all bans.
- If a team does not show up with at least 3 players 10 minutes after the lobby begins, they will auto FF.
- Teams are NOT allowed to play a warm up map. We are here to watch a match, not a 4 minute meme map
- Each team is entitled to a 3 minute (180 second) timeout once per match.
- Once both captains are present in the lobby, they will do !roll to determine pick/ban order.
- The captain that wins the roll will decide between 1st pick/2nd ban or 2nd pick/1st ban while automatically getting 1st protect. Loser gets the other option.
- Protects, Bans and Picks will have a 120 second timer. If the timer runs out, the team loses the Protect/Ban/Pick.
- in cases of pick being lost, the pick goes to the other team.
- Each team will have 120 seconds to ready up. After this timer runs out, the referee will begin the match 5 seconds after regardless if a team is ready or not (a referee may choose to ignore this rule).
- Neither team is allowed to double ban.
- Example: If Team 1 Bans NM3, They cannot Ban any other NM map
- Neither team is allowed to double pick (with the exception of NM). Triple picking NM is not possible.
- Example: If Team 1 Picks HR3, they cannot pick any other HR map on their next pick.
- Freemod will require each team to have:
- Player 1 plays HD/EZHD/FL/FLHD/FLEZHD
- Player 2 plays HR/HDHR/FLHR/FLHRHD
- Player 3 plays NM/EZ/FL/FLHD/FLEZHD
- TieBreaker does not require the use of any mods.
- If a player disconnects within the first 30 seconds or first quarter of a map, whichever is shorter, the map will be aborted by the referee and replayed.
- If a player disconnects mid-game, their score will not be counted unless adequate proof of said score is provided. The following are considered as acceptable proof:
- Player point-of-view live stream snippets (commonly referred to as "clips" or "VODs"). The entirety of the play, along with the results screen must be clearly visible along with the affected player's score.
- Replay files of the play, taken directly from the "Local scores" tab on the affected player's client (the timestamps must exactly match the time at which the game took place, as seen on the multiplayer lobby link).
- Screenshots from other players taken directly in-game that show the affected player's score.
- Screenshots from the results screen must clearly show the affected player's score. This is the preferred method.
- Screenshots taken in-game at the time of disconnection may be accepted.
- Note that this method does not provide a one-to-one representation of that player's score. Using this method is not encouraged and it may be denied at the referee's discretion if the information provided is not sufficient to identify the player/score.
- All screenshots MUST be taken using the game itself (using Shift + F12), that is, they must be hosted on the https://osu.ppy.sh/ domain. Any other form of screenshot will be denied.
- Player scores may be derived from the official stream as a last resort, in cases where the match is streamed.
