Tournament Rules

Terminology
  • A “game” is defined as the instance of combat where the outcome is determined by a team/player losing all their stocks.
  • A “set” is defined as the best-of-3 or best-of-5 games that is played until a team/player has won a majority of the set. (Multiple sets are only played in the case of the lower seed team/player winning a set in the Grand Finals.)
  • A “match” is defined as the set or collection of sets wherein a team/player has officially lost and the winning team/player advances to the next round of the tournament.
General
  • A team/player may not forfeit a match. Forfeiting a match will result in punitive measures to be determined by the Tournament Administration, including the loss of any prizes that team/player may have otherwise been entitled to.
  • If a team/player fails to show up for a match they were scheduled for, they will be subject to punitive measures to be determined by Tournament Organizers, including the loss of any prize that team/player may have otherwise been entitled to.
  • If a team is otherwise disqualified for any reason, they will be subject to punitive measures to be determined by Tournament Administrators, including the loss of any prize that team/player may have otherwise been entitled to.
  • Players competing are not allowed to play on another player's Steam account for any reason.
  • Being in possession of more than one smash.gg account is grounds for disqualification from all of ajmorr2000's tournament and can also result in a ban on ajmorr2000's streams and discords.

After 2 minutes, it is up to the discretion of Tournament Administrators whether or not the offending team/player will forfeit their match or if additional time will be given for the team/player to correct their issue.
  • If the game has loaded and begun and a player has an unforeseen issue preventing them from competing in the game within the first 10 seconds of the game, they may suicide 3 times to prematurely terminate the game and correct their issue. As stated above, they will have 5 minutes within the entire set to correct these issues.
