Rules



There's a lot of ground to cover in the Rules section, so please bear with me as I cover the various sections. If you already know how a general tournament works, a refresher never hurts just in case.

General Rules
  1. This tournament is double-elimination and played as a 2v2 team VS match.
  2. The mapset will be announced the week before a stage begins, and the categories are as follows:
    NoMod, Hidden, HardRock, DoubleTime, FreeMod, TieBreaker
  3. Match schedule is decided by the organizers, which will announce schedule the same day as the mapset every week. Each stage of this tournament will last a week, and that week starts when the mapset is announced a day before, so players need to get their match in before the week is over.
    If there is no referee available, or if I am not available, the match can be postponed.
  4. If both team tie on the TieBreaker, the TieBreaker will be replayed, though with FreeMod rules.
  5. If a player disconnects from the game, the opponent wins the round. The only exception is if the player disconnects during the first five seconds of the song, in which the match is restarted.
  6. Maps cannot be used twice in the same round.
  7. You have 15 minutes to show up to your scheduled match. If the opponent doesn't show up, the team which was supposed to play automatically advances onwards.
  8. Any other rules changes or unexpected occurrences will be announced in the thread.

Stage Regulations
  1. There are four stages to this tournament: the Group Stage, the Quarter-Finals, Semi-Finals, and Finals.
  2. Matches are seeded. Teams will be seeded per pp.
  3. In order to win in groups, it's best of 7, or the first to win four matches. For every other round apart from the finals, it's best of 9, or the first to win five matches. In the finals, it's best of 11, or the first to win six matches.

Match Regulations
  1. A private lobby will be created for your match, and both teams will be invited into their match when it's their time. Make certain you're online at this time. Match will be played as TeamVs and ScoreV2.
  2. Each team is allowed one warm-up, but it must be below 5 minutes.
  3. Map selection will begin with whoever rolled the highest, then will go to whoever rolled the lowest. When the starting team is decided, both teams will select one map to ban that is not the tiebreaker.
  4. In case of a tie, the tiebreaker is selected.
  5. Results will be displayed on Challonge, and announced by the referee.

Mappool Regulations
  1. There's a different pool in each stage of the tournament, becoming progressively harder.
  2. As stated before, NoMod, Hidden, HardRock, DoubleTime, FreeMod, and TieBreaker are the six categories that exist for this tournament.
  3. Each mappool has 13 maps, which includes 4 NoMod maps, 2 Mod maps (including FreeMod), and one TieBreaker.
  4. Tiebreaker is played FreeMod, but mods are not compulsory.
  5. As stated previously, the mappool is released when a stage starts.

Scheduling Regulations
  1. Every stage is held during the week-ends to let players practice. We will schedule the teams accordingly.
  2. Matches are allowed to overlap if referees are available.
  3. You must complete your match at the designated time or both teams are eliminated.
  4. However if you and your opponent team can come up with a better time than what we have scheduled for you, please inform us of this. We will change your match if informed at least a day in advance.
