- Players may claim a walkover win if their opponent doesn't show up/respond within the next 10 minutes after a match becomes available to play. Contact the admin (Sugar) in order to claim the walkover. If he is not in the in-game chat channel, message him on Discord (Sugar#3780).
- The chat channel is the players' primary method of contacting their opponents. Failure to be present in the in-game chat channel may lead to disqualification.
- If a draw happens for whatever reason, then that game must be played again on the same map.

- No cheating/hacking of any form is tolerated. Any offenders will be removed from the bracket and banned from future events.
- Excessive BM/toxicity is not tolerated as well. Should any players experience this in-game, send a screenshot to the admin Sugar via Discord and if he determines the evidence is enough, the offending player will be removed from the bracket.
