I) Registration



Registration starts on October 30, 2018 - 12:00 AM UTC. Closing November 22, 2018

12:00 AM.



Also be sure to register with proper MWO nickname. Nicknames will be checked and incorrect nickname will result in rejection of your registration on tournament.





II) Drops organization (players are advised to figure out server and drop agreements via discord before going into drops if they’re said to be casted)



Server: EU always (we don't want to spend time figuring it out and in case we make it random/player choice OC will be problematic), until both players mutually agree on OC or NA server



1. High seed player chooses class, low seed chooses map (out of 5 Solaris map pool), in lobby high seed chooses mech and has to lock his tonnage by typing “set/locked”, after which he cannot change mech, match starts when both players ready.

2. Same but players switch roles.

3. Both players have to make mutual agreement on weight class, if such agreement can’t be made high seed player will roll 1d4 in tournament discord with bot. 1- light, 2-medium, 3-heavy, 4-assault. Low seed chooses map and locks his tonnage first.





III) Mechs and omnipod bans

-ULTRAVIOLET (and omnipods from it)



If player is to violate this rule he instantly forfeits current drop in order not to stale the tournament.





IV) Streaks and flamers are banned.





V) In order to prevent non sportsmanship behavior stalling games by evading opponent or hiding for prolonged time on same spot is prohibited and will result in disqualification from the tournament. (example taking brawl build and camping some corner on Caves or Factory waiting for opponent to pass by) Also as a clarification only full destruction of enemy mech counts as win.





VI) Redrop will be scheduled if both players were actively fighting each other (percentage on mechs doesn’t matter) and either run out of time/stripped each other/ran out of ammo. In case players kill each other simultaneously winner is the one who got the kill first.
