📋 Decklist Submission

• All decklists must be submitted via Limitless.

• You may only use your submitted decklist for all rounds.

• If your opponent is not using their submitted deck, call a judge.

---

⚖️ Sportsmanship & Rules

• Rule sharking is NOT allowed. Be cool.

• Don't nitpick minor differences like similar names or alt art cards.

• Be respectful to opponents, staff, and stream viewers—everywhere.

• Disrespect, harassment, or toxicity = DQ.

---

⏰ Check-In

• Tournament check-in opens 1 hour before start time.

• You must check in on Limitless or risk being dropped.

• For each round: Check in during the first 5 minutes.

• If your opponent doesn't show within 5 minutes of both players checking in, call a judge.

• Do not delay your games after checking in. If you're more than 5 minutes late, it's a game loss.

---

🤝 Ties & IDs

• Ties and Intentional Draws (IDs) are not allowed in this tournament. All matches must have a winner.

• If the round timer expires and the score is 0-0 or 1-1, the result is a tie, and both players will receive a tie on their record.

• Screenshots of wins are strongly recommended for dispute resolution.

• If a disconnect occurs, the win goes to the player who receives the Victory screen.

• If the round timer ends but the match finishes within a reasonable time (to be determined by the judge), and a screenshot of the win is submitted to the Discord, the result may be overturned in favor of the winning player.

  → Take screenshots at the end of every match to avoid issues.

---

📺 Streaming & Conduct

• Players may stream, but stream sniping = DQ. Use a delay.

• Any form of cheating, exploit abuse, or misconduct = immediate disqualification.

• If you are banned from the__SAGA's stream, you will be DQ’d from the tournament.

---

💬 COMMUNICATION & JUDGES

• Use Limitless chat or our official Discord for all judge support and tournament communication.

• Always be respectful when communicating. If your in-game name differs from your Limitless username, please clarify this when asking for help.

• Judges are available throughout the event to handle rulings, disputes, and match issues.

• The judges' decisions are final. All players are expected to respect and comply with their rulings at all times.
