Rules📜

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 3 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 3-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-1 (BO1) matches lasting 20 minutes, with 3 minutes allocated for check-in at the start of each round.

Ties 🤝

  • Matches can result in ties, worth one point each.
  • If a round timer (20 minutes) concludes before a BO1 finishes, the match will automatically be a tie.

    Important: If the BO1 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 #toruney-chat channel for confirmation.

Streaming 📺

Players are allowed to stream their matches, but:

  • Enable a delay to prevent unfair advantages.
  • Using stream information, such as seeing an opponent’s hand or receiving external advice, is strictly prohibited. 🚫
  • Proven stream sniping will result in immediate disqualification. 🔴

Conduct and Rule Violations 🚨

Breaking rules, exploiting game bugs, or engaging in harassment or inappropriate behavior will result in penalties or disqualification.

  • Guidelines:
  • Be respectful and polite to players and judges. 🙏
  • Comply with judge instructions to avoid sanctions. 📜

Contacting Judges 🧑‍⚖️

Judges are available through Limitless or public Discord channels.

Avoid private messages for tournament-related queries. 🚫
