NA TIMELIMIT DUEL

DOUBLE ELIMINATION – WINNERS & LOSERS BRACKET

All matches in the winner’s and loser’s brackets will be best of 3 and grand finals will be best of 5 (with a map advantage to the winner of the winner’s bracket. quake.tools already has this built in to the moonbeam template).

PARTICIPATION REQUIREMENTS:

You must have all of the champions unlocked.
Your ping to NA servers cannot be higher than 110ms to NA Central.
- If a server can’t be decided:

Each player picks their preferred server and notes their ping for that server.
Calculate the ping difference for each server by subtracting the player with the lower ping from the player with the higher ping.
The server with the minimum ping difference is the server that will be used.

RULES OF CONDUCT:

If you aren’t present (or cannot solve technical problems) within 10 minutes of your match starting, tournament admins can grant you a technical defeat.
Twitch ToS extends to the tournament. If it’s not allowed on Twitch, it’s not allowed in the tournament.
Anti-competitive conduct, such as intentionally losing games, may result in disqualification and bans from future tournaments.

STREAMING RULES:

Anyone can stream their games. We do not require any stream delay, use it if you want to.
All participants and streamers of the tournament can restream each other.
You must invite official streamers to the lobby at their request.

RULES OF PLAY:

All matches (except the grand final) in the winner’s and loser’s brackets will be best of 3. Grand finals will be best of 5 with a one-map advantage to the winner of the winner’s bracket (the quake.tools template handles the map advantage).
10-minute time limit duel with a 100-frag limit
We will have check-in via Discord. Please set your Challonge display name to your Discord username so we can make sure that everyone is in the CoQ server.
When the tournament starts, one of you will need to invite the other to a party and set up a lobby. Follow the draft that you made in quake.tools and use the ping rules in the section below, if necessary. Keep an eye on the bracket and make sure to connect with your opponent when you’re matched with them.
First ban in draft will go to the higher seed or the player coming from the winners bracket.

HOW TO PLAY YOUR MATCH:

Set up a session on quake.tools using the template “moonbeam cup -> BO3”, including for loser’s bracket matches (we are not using Bo1). Grand finals will be played on moonbeam cup -> Grand Final.
Report the results of your match in the relevant bracket here. Do this ASAP so that we can progress the bracket.
