Top cut or top 16 (which ever is least) for each tournament will be invited to take place in our RookideeVGC Grand Tournament at the end of each season. A season will last approximately 3 months. There will be an entry fee of $5.00 for these tournaments as extra resources will go into running these tournaments. Winner of the tournament will win a cash Grand Prize to be announced at a later date.

Any competitors that win at least 2 events (any event run by RookideeVGC as of the first Weekly Qualifier) will be able to waive their entry fee for the Grand Tourney.

RULES!!

We follow the VGC Rules for TPCI. This will follow Regulation M-B rules. Here are some important rules to keep in mind.

  1. TREAT EVERYONE WITH RESPECT. There is a ZERO TOLERANCE policy for unsportsmanlike conduct
  2. Make sure your teamsheets are correct. If there is more than one error on your teamsheet, you will be automatically DQ'ed. If you have one error, you must notify your opponent before the first game of your set begins, otherwise it is a set loss.
  3. TAKE A SCREENSHOT IF YOU DISCONNECT. If you do not take a sc of your disconnect code, you will receive a game loss, even if you weren't the cause of the disconnect.
  4. Do not report wins early. Only report wins after each game has concluded. Allow the timer to Auto-Resolve the match if you opponent hasn't checked in (Example: Don't self report G1 & G2 Wins in the last minute).
  5. REQUEST A JUDGE IF THERE ARE ANY ISSUES DURING THE TOURNAMENT, OR IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS
