Rules:
• Swiss Rounds: Matches are single elimination (BO1) and last 30 minutes, with 5 minutes for check-in each round. Timers must be turned on. Time extensions are considered on case-by-case basis.
• Swiss Round Tie: If time is called during Swiss Rounds (BO1), the game will be recorded as a tie unless directed otherwise by staff.
• Top Cut Rounds: BO3 with a 60 minute time limit and 5 minute check-in.
• Slow Play: If you suspect your opponent is playing too slowly, please alert a judge. The best way to prove this is to stream your game for a judge on discord, and take screenshots of the time difference in game.
• Technical Issues: If you encounter problems like game freezes, internet issues, or crashes, the affected player may receive a Game Loss if the game becomes unplayable.
• Match Reporting: Results must be reported on Limitless before time is called; otherwise, they will be marked as ties. Results must be recorded before time expires to avoid a tie.
• Screenshot Proof: Please take screenshots of wins after matches to help avoid any issues. If you leave without explicitly stating time is over and it is a tie in limitless chat, it may be interpreted as a concession.
• Streaming: Players may stream their matches on any platform. We recommend including a stream delay as we have no real way of proving "stream sniping". Please also consider following our twitch channel as we will be trying to stream the tournaments.
• Check-In: Players must check in before each match; failing to do so will result in an automatic Game Loss.
• Card Legality: All cards are legal for play if they are in the standard format on PTCGL.
• If you have any other questions please contact us on the official discord!
