Region/Network
Your in-game matchmaking region must be set to North America.
Server Selection
Each team will select their preferred server region (West/Central/East) before the tournament begins. Selections will be revealed to all teams at the start of the tournament
- Teams cannot declare themselves as a Central team unless that have at least 1x East and 1x West starter. If a team does not meet those requirements, they must select East or West as their preferred server.
- The Central server will be used for all matches involving a Central team.
- The Central server will be used for all East vs West matches. If an East team faces an East team, then the server is determined by the in-game server selection. Same applies for West versus West.
- Central is NOT default. It is only used when there it is East versus West, East versus Central, and West versus Central.
Pre-Match Process
- Check into your match within 10 minutes of it being called.
- Declare your starting roster (higher seed must declare theirs first).
- Teams must re-state their server preference then establish which game server will be used.
- Coordinate private match codes in start.gg chat. If a central code is needed, ping Brickbat for a code.
Match Process
- Load into game with your announced roster and ensure "Show my name to others" is SET TO ON.
- Teams will queue up for a Custom Game using the agreed-upon match code.
- **Winner of the match must submit a screenshot of the Victory Overview page via StartGG.
- Teams must report each in-game set as a tournament game
- Example: LYTE defeats DLS with a set count of 3-1. DLS reports a game win, then LYTE reports three game wins so that the overall series score has been reported as 3-1.
- If a team has won two games in the series, the series is over, otherwise continue with the next 3 instructions.
- Winning team declares their roster for the next game.
- Losing team declares their roster for the next game.
- Repeat Steps 1-7.
**Not required if your match has been assigned to be streamed.
Substitutions: You may not be listed as a player for more than one team. Starting roster and any substitutions made must be declared in start.gg chat before the relevant set/match. Emergency substitutions will not be allowed.
