Rules

Have fun!!!

Players races cannot be changed throughout a series. A player may chose to pick another race after a finished series. The desired race MUST be announced clearly to the opponent before the veto for a series starts. Random counts as race.

Default waiting time is 15 minutes if a match is ready to play, unless both opponents agree on something else. If that is the case, it must be made known to the admin via /whisper ingame, on Discord or in the stream chat. However, if the bracket is being delayed for an unreasonable amount of time, it is in the admins discretion to revoke that agreement to guarantee a smooth tournament.

Default server is the EU server. If both opponents agree to play on a different server, this decision MUST be made known on Discord OR via ingame PM to either LadyAzylis or a tournament admin. You do not have to wait for approval, we just want to know in case we are looking for players.

Players cannot deny the Proxy Tempest staff and the broadcasters listed in the Approved streamers list from observing their games.

Semi finals and finals are casted, so even if you are ready to play, please wait for the caster(s). This rule does not apply if the tournament lasts an extended period of time.

Make sure your privacy settings allow others to contact you.

Please use Discord or the stream chat to bring up any concerns or questions during the games.

Third party software that provides any sort of advantage for the player using it (such as maphacks, production tab hacks and so on) is not allowed. Using that sort of cheat will result in immediate ban from the current event and all future events held by Proxy Tempest.

To have fun, sportsmanlike behaviour is expected from all participants towards each other, the admins and the caster(s). Excessive bad mannered behaviour will result in either a disqualification from the current event, a temporary ban, or a lifetime ban from Proxy Tempest events, depending on the severity of misbehaviour. It is in the discretion of the tournament admin to determine what actions are to be taken. To report a player for unsportsmanlike behaviour, please provide proof in form of screenshots and/or replays containing the reported manners.

In the event of a disconnect players must restart from replay three seconds from when the disconnect happened.

The stream has a delay of 3 minutes to prevent stream cheating, however, players are asked to leave the channel while their matches are casted.

Prize money is paid out via Matcherino and always minus Matcherino fees.
