Please note that this is a two-day tournament. It begins Friday night and will continue Saturday morning.
It is normal to be unable to register your team for day two, simply register for day one and that is all that your team needs to do.
Official Rules
1. Overwatch and Format
1.1. Player Eligibility
All players participating in Overwatch competitions must enter their Overwatch BattleTag game ID. The game account is needed to invite players into a custom match and to check if the correct player is playing.
1.2. Team and Player Names
Only registered team members are allowed to play for a team. Playing in any matches with a ringer is prohibited. (See “Ringing/Faking” in the Global Rules) Players and teams must compete under their officially registered Overwatch team names and Nicknames during all official matches.
1.3. Roster
Team rosters must consist of at least the minimum amount of players required to participate, which is six players. Teams are only allowed to play with players on their roster with a registered game account. All roster changes must be made prior to the start of the tournament.
1.4. Game version
The tournament will be played on the newest version of the game. All updates will be installed prior to the start of the tournament.
1.5. Technical Issues
Matches will not be rescheduled because of technical issues and matches will be played nevertheless. If the maximum pause time is exceeded, the game goes on, even if the issue is not solved yet.
1.6. Disqualification
To keep tournaments as efficient as possible, CGS reserves the right to disqualify teams. This will only be done in cases where a team purposefully stalls or attempts to block another team. In some scenarios, both teams may be affected. Any team found to be using a known exploit will forfeit their game upon the first occurrence of the exploit. If the team is found to use another known exploit for a second time and it is determined to have been done on purpose they will be removed from the event.
