TOs have the final say on any discrepancies.

How to play:

Go into "Bracket" and select your set when it is called. Click "Check In" and then select "Chat" and discuss details with your opponent to set up your match. You will have 10 mins to check in during the first two rounds of Winners and 5 mins to check in thereafter.

IF YOU DO NOT CHECK IN YOU WILL BE DISQUALIFIED AND YOUR SET WILL NOT BE RESET, SO PLEASE CHECK IN!!!

If you need immediate assistance, please use the "Request a Moderator" button or tag the TO (usually Chez) in the #battle-talk channel of the Panda Discord.

Lag test procedure: if you experience significant lag during a game, finish the current game and then request a mod in chat. The mod may ask you to demonstrate that you are connected via LAN (either through a photograph of your Switch home screen or through a shared screenshot), to take a speed test to test the strength of your LAN connection, and/or create a separate arena for you and your opponent to join to test the fidelity of your connection. If any player is found to be using falsified or otherwise faulty proof of LAN connection, they will be banned from all future Panda Bamboo Battle events.

Bracket will be ran with the SWT ruleset.
