Decklist Submission
Decklists must be submitted through Limitless! Only the decklist you submit can be used during the tournament, and it will be your official deck for all games.
Note: If you notice your opponent using a different decklist, please contact a judge immediately.
Tournament Check-in
Check-in begins one hour before the tournament start time. Players who fail to check in will be dropped from the tournament.
Round Check-in
- Players have 5 minutes to check in at the start of each round.
- Only check in when you are ready to play.
- If your opponent does not connect within the 5-minute check-in window, you win by default. However, the match can be reset only if the player who wins by default agrees to reset the match.
Swiss Rounds
Swiss rounds are Best-of-3 (BO3) matches lasting 40 minutes, with 5 minutes allocated for check-in at the start of each round.
Top Cut Matches
- Top matches must be visible. Create rooms on Discord where a judge or organizer will join. (you can find a guide on our Discord channel)
- If you'd like to be featured live during Swiss rounds, set up a room, and the organizer will join after each round.
Ties
- Matches can result in ties, worth one point each.
- If a round timer (40 minutes) concludes before a BO3 finishes, the match will automatically be a tie.
Important: If the BO3 finishes on time but results cannot be submitted quickly: Call a judge immediately before the match ends, otherwise the match will be considered a tie even if it finishes within one minute after the time limit. If additional minutes are allowed in the tournament, this will be communicated through our Discord channel.
Connection Issues & Turn 0 Situations
Connection Issues
- If connection issues occur before the game starts, try to reconnect.
- If the issue occurs mid-game, the player with the Victory Screen wins.
- Always take a timestamped screenshot of your victory screen for dispute resolution.
Turn 0 Situations
- Bug: If the screen shows "Empty history", a bug has occurred. Neither player wins. Report the issue to the staff and upload a screenshot to the #judge-screenshots channel.
- Intentional Forfeit: If your opponent forfeits intentionally, the screen will show "Match forfeited." You win automatically. Take a screenshot and upload it to the #judge-screenshots channel for confirmation.
