  • Nicknames and the name of the team must be “readable” and understandable to the tournament team;
  • Visually similar nicknames and team names are forbidden.
  • There can be only one captain and assistant in a team.

Matchmaking

Tournament Administrator creates a fake lobby in the “Custom battle” mode in 20-25 minutes before the match starts, and then sends invitations to the captains of the teams participating in a particular round.

In the created lobby, team captains do the following steps:

  • Ban one map with a game mode in the right queue order;
  • Pick one map with a game mode in the right queue order;
  • Ban ships in order of priority.

After completing the steps above, the Tournament Administrator creates a lobby in the “Custom battle” mode with the map and mode picked by the captain, and invites teams.

The system described above works in parallel: during the ban-picks of the teams of the first tournament round, another Administrator already sends custom battle invitations to the teams of the second round, etc.

Bans and picks of maps and modes

Upper bracket

  • The first team to ban maps and modes is the one placed higher in the bracket;
  • Captains ban maps with mode from the list below;
  • The team that is lower in the bracket chooses a map with a mode, spawn side and server for the first round, the team that is higher in the bracket choses the server for the second round;
  • The third map is played in case of a draw on the previous two, the spawn side is random, the RU server is in priority;
  • The server is set to EU if there is a choice between RU and US (NA).

Map pool:

  • Destroyed station: Detonation;
  • Terminal D: Team Battle;

  • Dreadnought debris: Beacon Hunt;
  • Monolith Remains: 4 lives.

Lower bracket

  • Map: random from the list;

Bans of ships

  • Each team can ban 5 ships for a single round;
  • The tournament Administration requests bans from the team captains by a message in the “Room” chat;

The order of ship bans:
