Tournament format

Game mode
This tournament will be played in a Custom Lobby as Unrated.

Bracket structure
The bracket will be a double elimination with a random initial draw, based on the number of teams entered.

Picking sides
The two teams will take turns banning maps starting with the higher seed. The higher seeded team gets to pick which map out of the last two to play. The lower will then decide which side to start on.

Checking in
Every team is required to have one member check-in with tournament staff via the Discord event hub before the start of their match. Event staff will provide a 30 minute heads up before expected match times via Discord.

Riot IDs & Substitutes
You are required to play using the Riot ID provided at the time of registration. If for some reason you need to change which Riot ID you will be playing with, please alert tournament staff to the switch at least 24 hours before the start of the tournament.

If your team needs to substitute a player, the substitute must come from another team already entered in the tournament. If the substitution needs to extend beyond a single game, tournament staff will make allowances on a case-by-case basis.

1st place: 3D printed medals, team trophy, $30 gift card per player
