Ruleset:
All games(except BBXTB): First to 2 all the way until losers/winners/grand finals, then it is first to 3.
BBXTB: FT3 the whole way
Consoles: If you are bringing a console, you MUST REPORT TO THE TOURNAMENT ORGANIZERS. When you do, they will tell you where to put it depending on what game you have and you must have all the DLC for a particular game you are bringing a setup for.
Coaching: There is a maximum of 30 seconds allowed BETWEEN GAMES IN A SET ONLY. No exceptions & this will be enforced, if you break this rule you get a round loss. Break it again and you get knocked into losers, once more will be a DQ.
Wireless Controllers: When you are done with your set, DESYNC. YOUR. PAD! We will have a TO on surveillance at the stream setup at all times to make sure we don’t let this happen on stream and we will patrol the off stream setups as much as we can, but off stream it’s your job to do the right thing. If a third party turns their pad on during a set, the penalties will include:
Occurance 1: Round loss, knocked into losers. Given a warning.
Occurance 2: Disqualified, no excuses at this point.
Garbage:
Please throw your garbage out when you are finished eating/drinking. If a spill/other mess happens, please notify a Tournament Organizer and we’ll aid in cleaning up as best as we can.
Timing: PLEASE BE ON TIME FOR YOUR SET. If you are not paying attention/on the premises, you will be given at most 10 minutes to get to the TO desk. Failure to comply after 10 minutes means a loss/disqualification.
