Rules



+ Show Spoiler +



-All players will meet in the GreatNorthernSC2 Tournaments GROUP on NA Server to set up for matches.

-All matches will be played using the most recently released version of the game.

-Players must provide their own valid Starcraft II Battle.net account.

-Any team found using third party add-ons, altered game files, or modified drivers that changes the game mechanics or provides an unfair advantage will be disqualified from the tournament.

-It is the player's responsibility to be aware of, and follow the posted schedule for the tournament. Failure to be available on time or leaving before all your games are played could result in a game forfeit or tournament disqualification.

-Matches have assigned start times, and any team that has not checked in and cannot be found within 15 minutes of the posted time will forfeit that match. Match start times will be updated as the tournament progresses, depending on how quickly we get through the games. It is the player's responsibility to be aware of times of their matches and changes.

-Two (2) forfeits during the tournament, either intentional or unintentional will be taken as a player's refusal to play and they will be disqualified immediately.

-In the case of battle.net, network, computer or power failure, any affected matches will be restarted from the Resume Replay function.

-Should a game be restarted from the beginning, the new match will be played on the same map with the same races as the aborted match. Should a player have selected a random race for the aborted match, they will then pick the same race as was chosen for them by the randomizer.

-Any player may dispute the results of one (1) of their matches during the tournament. They must do so immediately upon completion of the match before starting any further matches, and provide the tournament organizers with a replay file and the reason for disputing the match results. The case will then be adjudicated by multiple tournament officials and the results either deemed valid, force a rematch, or reversed entirely at the discression of the tournament officials. The officials may request a replay from any players involved in the match. Since replays are recorded automatically, failing to produce your replay file will likely result in unfavorable judgement.

-There will be no communication (either battle.net or otherwise) with players outside of the game while a match is in progress, and any conversation with an opponent must remain civil.





Tournament Format



-Teams will be seeded at random.

-Round of 128 will be a BO1 and every other round up until the last round will be BO3, with the final being a BO5
