⚖️ Tournament Rules & Policies

Respect & Fair Play All players must maintain good sportsmanship and respect others. Toxic behavior or offensive usernames will lead to disqualification.

Deck Consistency Using a deck that differs from your submitted list results in an automatic match loss.

Round 0 Wins Victories claimed before the coin flip or while your opponent is disconnected are not valid. A match only counts once the coin flip begins.

Match Results Always take a screenshot of your victory screen to resolve any disputes if they arise.

Incomplete Matches If a match isn’t finished before the round timer ends, it counts as a tie unless one player is clearly responsible for the delay.

Connection Issues If you disconnect due to app or internet issues, it counts as a loss, unless the issue occurs before the coin flip.

Slow Play If one player’s timer is more than 4 minutes behind, take a screenshot and report it on Discord. The player may then claim a win.

Password Issues If the match password doesn’t work, both players must agree on a new one.

Late Check-In Players who miss check-in are responsible for their absence. A judge can only intervene if the opponent agrees to continue. Matches started without check-in can still proceed unless a judge decides to restart them.

Intentional Ties Permitted if both players agree and a judge is notified.

Judge Calls Judges will make impartial decisions based on tournament policy. If both players resolve an issue on their own, a judge call isn’t necessary.

🔁 Tie Game Procedure

If Game 1 or 2 ends in a tie, replay the game using Sudden Death (the first player to take a prize card wins).

If Game 3 ends in a tie, replay Game 3 from the beginning until a clear winner is determined.
