⚖️ Tournament Conduct
Respect & Fair Play
All players must maintain respectful behavior. Toxicity, unsportsmanlike actions, or inappropriate usernames may result in removal from the event.
⸻
🎴 Deck Regulations
Your deck must match the list you submitted. Using an altered or incorrect decklist results in an automatic loss.
⸻
⏱️ Round 0 / Pre-Match Rules
Victories earned before the coin flip—or because your opponent isn’t online yet—are invalid.
Once the coin flip begins, the match officially counts.
⸻
🏆 Reporting Match Results
Always take a screenshot of the victory screen in case a dispute needs review.
⸻
🛑 Unfinished Matches
If a match is not completed by the end of the round timer, it is ruled as a tie, unless one player is clearly responsible for the delay.
⸻
🖥️ Connection Issues
If you disconnect due to the app or internet mid-game, it counts as a loss, unless it happens before the coin flip.
⸻
🐌 Slow Play
If one player’s in-game timer is more than 4 minutes behind the opponent’s, take a screenshot and report it. A win may be awarded to the other player.
⸻
🔑 Password Problems
Both players must agree on a shared password.
⸻
Late Check-In
Players are responsible for checking in on time.
Judges may assist only if both players agree to continue.
If a match starts without check-in, it may continue unless a judge decides to reset it.
🎥 Streaming
Atleast one person should be streaming their match on Discord! For Finals both matches must be screen-shared on Discord for the YT Stream
