Tournament Rules

Failing to follow these rules will result in Disqualification. (See DQ section below)

• You must check in on a 'per round' basis
• You have 10 minutes to check-in for each round
• If the other team checks in but do not arrive to play, contact a moderator through the #help-and-support channel in the Rocket Core Discord.
• Once the moderator has contacted them, the other team has 10 minutes to reply.

Game Restart

Teams may request a game restart if a player is experiencing internet lag or other issues that make it unplayable.

The following conditions must also be met in order for a game to be restarted:

• Less than one (1) minute of the match has been played
• No more then one (1) goal has been scored

if the above conditions are not met, the game must continue to play in their absence and restarts may not be requested. However, the player with issues may try to rejoin the game.

Roster

• Teams can register a roster of four (4) players (3 starters and 1 substitute)
• Substitutions can be made mid-round, but not mid-game. For example, if a player drops out and the game can't be restarted (see Game Restart), the game must be completed before a substitute can be brought in.

Reporting The Score

• All matches should be played as a best of 5 series
• Once a match has concluded, please update the Challengermode scores accurately and take screenshots should there be any dispute over the outcome.

Lobby Server
