INFORMATION:

For any questions about the judging just call a judge or message on discord.

When time is called during Swiss Rounds BO1 the game will be a Tie, 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 our Discord Server or your opponent admitting to "Playing Slowly", or screenshots proving a guaranteed win.

If you experience any of the following: Game Freezing, Internet Issues, Server Issues, Game Lag, Software Glitch, Device Crashing, or anything that automatically gives a win screen to your opponent - it will be awarded as a Game Loss to the player experiencing the issue if the game is unusable unless it happens within the round check in time. After that the one that got server issue will lose.

It is strongly recommended to have screenshot proof of any win or tie upon the conclusion of a game. If you leave a game without explicitly stating "time is over, this is a tie" or something similar, it could be perceived as a concession.
