We encourage all matches to be streamed, especially top cut matches. You may do so in the discord server or through any other means. It is recommended to have a delay on your stream to avoid stream sniping or any other disadvantages if using a streaming service such as twitch. Any advantages gained by streaming, such as receiving assistance from your audience, can lead to penalties.

Please be aware that PTCG Live is not a perfect client and errors within the game could result in a game loss.

Phase 1 Swiss rounds are Best of 1, 30 minutes, with 5 minute check in timer.

Top Cut will be Single Elimination, best of 3 with 50 minute timer and 5 minute check in timer.

If you select the wrong deck please call a judge. If this is caught early without serious impact on the game a reset may be allowed. This could otherwise result in a game loss.

If a match goes to time it will automatically be declared a Tie. All games must be reported on Limitless BEFORE time has been called for the round otherwise they will be a Tie. You can concede to your opponent to give them the Win, but if a result hasn't been recorded before time is called, it will stay a Tie.

It is strongly recommended to have screenshot proof of any win or tie upon the conclusion of a game. If you leave a game without explicitly stating "time is over, this is a tie" or something similar, it could be perceived as a concession.

It is the players responsibility to Check In prior to each match - failure to do so will result in an automatic Game Loss. If you are late to check in your opponent may elect to play by calling a judge and requesting a reset.

If a match with a late player or slow player goes to time, the opponent may call for a judge to review and you may receive a game loss.

If you suspect slow play, PLEASE call a Judge with at LEAST 5 MINUTES remaining and be prepared to live stream your match for us to view in real time. We cannot make a slow play call based on recordings or screenshots. we MUST be able to see the game live and in action to make an accurate call and need ample time to do so.
