- REGISTRATIONS CLOSE: July 15th
- SCREENING: July 15th - July 29th
- DRAFT: August 3rd - August 4th
- QUARTERFINALS: August 10th - August 11th

- GRAND FINALS: August 31st - September 1st
- Players that have signed-up are placed in a pool which they have a chance to be selected from during the drafting phase.
- The player cap per division is 64, which means 8 players per team up to a total of 8 teams.
- The first division draft will start before the second division draft, whoever didn't get drafted from the first division draft will have a chance to get drafted in the second division.
- On each team, there will be a captain that performs each draft selection for their team during the drafting phase.
- If you sign up for this tournament, you are agreeing to potentially being chosen as a captain. If chosen, you will be held responsible for drafting & the team for the remainder of the tournament. However, you may hand over the captain role to a teammate after the draft phase has been completed.
- Captains will be chosen at staff members' discretion after sign-ups close.
- The 8 captains will be assigned an order in the draft per host discretion.
- The draft phase will follow a snake format, which looks like this:
1st round: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
2nd round: 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1
3rd round: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
And so on until every team is filled with 8 players each. - The amount of time for each captain’s selection will be 1 minute for the first three draft rounds, then the time will be bumped up to 2 minutes for the last four rounds.
- If you sign up for this tournament you are entering a pool of players to have a chance of either being a captain or draftable player out of every player that has signed-up. Since this tournament has no rank limit, this means you are not guaranteed a spot to play.
- 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 choice between pick order or ban order. The loser of the roll will choose the remaining one.
- Warmup maps will be allowed for the entirety of the tournament. Each team may select one warmup pick; warmups may not exceed 4:00 total length.
- The referee can give host to the players for warmups only. The referee will have host for the entire match after warmups. A team will select a map by naming the map in the multiplayer chat, and the referee will select it.
- Each team has 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 to select a map; if they fail to choose in the allotted time, the referee reserves the right to pass the map choice 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:
- 2 mods minimum on Freemod
- 1 HD, 1 HR
- HDHR counts as HR
- EZ counts as HD
- Allowed mods are Hidden, Hard Rock, Flashlight, and Easy.
- Mods are allowed, but not required, on Tiebreakers.
- 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 reserves the right to force an !mp start 15 command, starting the match with whoever is in the lobby.
- The "Easy" modification will have a buff to its multiplier from 0.5x to 0.75x.
- In the case of a disconnection, common sense will be applied: if proof exists of the disconnected player's score (or a rough estimate of their hypothetical score if they finished the map), it will be added to their team's total score; if it is at all ambiguous, the other team will get the point; if the disconnection occurred in the first few seconds, the map will be replayed.
