It is highly recommended to form a team prior to the start of the league night (you may utilize our discord to find a team: https://discord.gg/fRZA2HU ). If you still do not have a team at the start of the tournament, we will place players into the bracket based on when people arrived, on a first-come-first-serve basis

If a crash or DC occurs during a match, the game will be restarted maintaining the score at the time of the crash. If players intentionally cause DCs or computer issues they will be disqualified and possibly banned from all future tournaments.
