The N2 Cup follows the point structures of the League Cup. Players will be competing for points to qualify for a Top 16 season placement across 12 tournaments. At the end of the 12 tournaments the Top 16 players will compete in a Single Elimination Bracket. The winners of the bracket will receive a 3D printed trophy as well as some TCG goodies to go along with it. The date of the tournament will be announced.

Each N2 Cup qualifier will be rounds based on participation. Prizing starts at 50 packs and will increase by donations. The only entry we ask is to 1. Join our Discord and 2. Screen share within the Discord so we can broadcast gameplay on the stream. Prizing is sent through PTCGO trades at this time and may change with the launch of PTCG Live.

Format:
Sets and promo cards will be considered legal on the day they are legal on PTCGO. Any bugs that are announced in Discord and are seen to be used by either player will result in a game loss for that player if the opposing player is able to screen shot proof.

Check In:
Players are expected to check in during each round of the tournament. If a player does not check in for two consecutive rounds they will be dropped from the event. During the Top Cut players who are 5 minutes late to check in will receive a Game 1 Loss. Players 10 minutes late will receive a Game 2 and match loss.

Connection Loss:
In the event a player loses connection during a match the player is issued a game loss. If the connection is lost within the five minute check in period AND the game can be started within the five minute check in time the game will be played. In this situation please screen shot you sending the game request to your opponent as well as the time on your computer for verification. Games that are determined by time should Request a Judge to verify result.

Sportsmanship:
While we aim to have a competitive event we expect our players to adhere to high levels of Sportsmanship. Players should not maliciously communicate with their opponent (friendly banter stops being friendly when one player is unhappy.) If a player is a short period late to a match and both players agree a judge can reset the match to be played. If at any time you feel your opponent is not exhibiting good sportsmanship with photographic proof please request a judge on Discord with your proof.

Rounds:

4-8 players = 3 Swiss Rounds and No Top Cut
9-12 players = 4 Swiss Rounds and Top 4 Cut
13-20 players = 5 Swiss Rounds and Top 4 Cut
21-32 players = 5 Swiss Rounds and Top 8 Cut
