Lag Rules

There may be instances of lag in the games. Please show good sportsmanship to Admins and players in such instances. If an opponent has speed up ARMS, the game will continue. Players are allowed to ask for a replaying of 1 match if this occurs. In that case the reporter has to provide proof. Then the player with the connection issue will try to solve it. After that the match will continue. If the problem doesn't get resolved a second time, 1 match will go to player with a stable connection. If your opponent is teleporting and has ARMS going through them. Record this and show it to an admin. If the admin agrees then 1 match will go in favor of player with a stable connection. If a player disconnects due to connection issues, that player will forfeit that match (0-0 → 0-1). If there's lost connections several times, that player will be disqualified and forfeits that match (0-0 → 0-2).

If you run into any lag or disconnect issues and the opponent agrees, you are allowed to circumvent the Lag Rules above once and replay 1 match. Otherwise the Lag Rules above will still apply.

Other Notes

It's recommended for all players to play with a wired connection.



If you have a poor internet connection, make sure to not throttle your connection by tuning into streams, play videos or download anything.



Keep in mind that if players fail to resolve situations by themselves, Admins are allowed to make decisions to prevent stalling of the tournament.



Since this is just a tournament made for fun there won't be any prizes. The winner will get a Champion role in the Discord though!
