Tournament Info

How will this actually work?

1. When the round is paired go to Limitless.
2. In Limitless you will check in for the round.
3. You will share a room code in the limitless chat with your opponent (either player can make it).
4. Play your game through Mobile Suit Arena with the room code mentioned above.
5. Upon match completion, record the result in limitless.
6. Wait for the next round to be paired and repeat starting at step 2 until the tournament concludes.
• Please note if a round has all scores submitted prior to the end of round timer we will push it sooner.

Other tournament information if it comes up

• Swiss Round BO1 matches are 40 minutes long with 5 mins of Check In per round
• All games played are in an open deck list format to help maintain online integrity.
• When time is called during Swiss Rounds BO1 the game will be a Double Game Loss, unless otherwise stated by Staff
• If you believe your opponent is "Playing Slowly", please call a Judge as early as possible. The only acceptable forms of proof are: streaming your game in the Eagle's Nest Discord Server or your opponent admitting to "Playing Slowly"
• If you experience any of the following, but not limited to: Game Freezing, Internet Issues, Server Issues, Game Lag, Software Glitch, Device Crashing - it will be awarded as a Game Loss to the player experiencing the issue if the game is unusable.
• All games must be reported on Limitless before time has been called for the round otherwise they will be a Double Game Loss. You can concede to your opponent to give them the "Win", but if there isn't a recorded result before time is called, it will stay as a Double Game Loss
• It is strongly recommended to have screenshot proof of any win upon the conclusion of a game. If you leave a game without explicitly stating "time is over, this is a DGL" or something similar, it could be perceived as a concession.
• Players are allowed to stream their personal event experience on any streaming service and it is recommended to have a delay on your stream to avoid "stream sniping" or any other disadvantages. Any advantages gained by streaming, such as receiving assistance from your audience, can lead to penalties after staff investigates the situation.
• 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 aren't familiar with the Play Limitless website or need additional information, please read the Help Page
