Clean Language requirement

This of course applies to nickname switching or any other variations of trying to be funny. If you don't follow these simple rules, you may be removed from the tournament.

Tournament system

• The 1on1, 2on2 and 4on4 tournaments consist of two stages:
  • A round-robin group stage.
  • A single elimination playoff.
• The participants that end up first and second in their group go to the playoffs.
• The playoffs will have a 3rd place match.
• Group stage matches are BO3.
• The 1on1 and 2on2 playoff matches are BO5, except the finals which are BO7.
• The 4on4 playoff matches are BO3, except the final which is BO5.

Points

The ranking in the group stage is determined by taking the following stats into account (in order):

• Points (1 point per match win).
• Map difference.
• Internal fight.
• Map difference in those internal fights.
• Frag difference in those internal fights.
• Total frag difference of all games.
