Game Rules

  1. Finding a Match:  For a 2v2 tournament, all four (4) players will join one lobby and search for a squad game.
  2. Win Condition: The winning team will be determined by the team with the largest number of total kills over two games played. If their is a tie, the tiebreaker will be determined by the last team that has a player still standing. If that is still a tie then the winner will be decided by the team that got the final kill.
    • Note: Players that are downed are NOT considered standing.  
    • Kills made after a match has concluded will not count. Once no player is left standing, the match is concluded. 
      • Example: Players A, B, and C are all dead. Player D is still standing. If Player A gets a kill, that kill will count towards the team’s overall score. The second that player D dies, no other kills that occur after Player D’s death will be counted.
  3. Griefing: Teams are permitted to work together, however, you may not intentionally cause the death of your opponent or negatively impact your opponent’s gameplay. This includes sabotaging structures, causing fall damage, or any other negative interference in your opponents gameplay. Doing so will result in a forfeit of kills for that map.
  4. Cross Platform: Cross platform is permitted. Players can play on either PS4 Console, Xbox console, PC and switch for online events, and PS4 with controller, PS4 with keyboard and mouse, or Xbox with controller. Xbox doesn’t have a keyboard and mouse option yet.

Bracket Play

  1. Single Elimination: After losing a match, teams will be eliminated from the bracket.
  2. Default Start Time: All round one (1) matches have the same default start time. After round one (1), all Matches have a unique default start time that is dependent upon the time at which the teams’ previous round results were submitted. Matches must be started by their default start time and played until completion. Postponing matches is only at the discretion of Online Tournament staff.
  3. Double Forfeit: If a match is not played and neither team submits a ticket requesting the forfeit win, or both teams otherwise forfeit a game/match, the game/match win will be awarded to the higher seeded team.
  4. Seeding: Teams will be randomly seeded at of the close of registration. Seeds are done in ascending order. The higher seed is determined by the team with the seed closest to zero (0).
    • Example: Seed four (4) is a higher seed than seed ten (10).

All Matches

  1. Warm-up: No warm-up or practice games are permitted once the match’s first game has begun. If a match is played before the scheduled time, it will not be considered a warm-up and will count as the official results.
  2. Delays: Teams may not delay the start of a match beyond its scheduled start time, without the approval of a tournament official. Teams may delay a match between games for up to five minutes. Teams can request that a tournament official enforce this five minute time limit. After five minutes of a tournament official enforced delay, if the delaying team does not have the minimum required players, they will forfeit the match.
  3. Minimum Required Players: Teams may be short handed by one player in order to start a game. A Team will Forfeit the Match if they are missing all of their players 15 minutes after a Match’s default start time (Grace Period). Teams will be forced to start a Game at the end of a Grace Period as outlined in the No Show proceedure.
  4. Lag: As the game is hosted on dedicated servers, replays will not be issued for lag.
  5. Disconnections: If a player does not get into the game lobby before the start of the game, all players should back out and re-form the party.
    • If a player disconnects prior to landing, the match should be replayed. If this occurs more than once, tournament live support should be
      • If a player disconnects/leaves the game after landing, their kills at the time of the disconnection (proof must be provided in the case of a disagreement) will be added to the kills of their teammate and the remainder of the game will continue.

Reporting

  1. No Shows:  The No Show grace period time is 15 minutes after the match’s original start time. For example, if a match is scheduled for 10:00 PM, the no show time for this match would be 10:15 PM.  Prior to any forfeits being made, a tournament admin must confirm that a team has failed to show up for the match.
    • Tournament No Show Procedure: A tournament admin will contact the team that has failed to show up through the console’s messaging system. If we are unable to contact you through the system, you will be contacted through the email they registered with.
  2. Time Limit: Both teams must report the match results within 10 minutes of its completion. Failure to report the match results on time or respond to any messages that you receive from a tournament official may result in your team receiving the loss.

Game Rules

  1. Finding a Match:  For a 2v2 tournament, all four (4) players will join one lobby and search for a squad game.
  2. Server Selection:  The higher seeded team hosts the first game and the lower seeded team hosts the second game.
  3. Win Condition: The winning team will be determined by the team with the largest number of total kills over two games played. If there’s a tie, the tiebreaker will be determined by the team that has the most damage. Loser bracket matches are one and done.
    • Kills made after a match has concluded will not count. Once no player is left standing, the match is concluded. 
      • Example: Players A, B, and C are all dead. Player D is still standing. If Player A gets a kill, that kill will count towards the team’s overall score. The second that player D dies, no other kills that occur after Player D’s death will be counted.
      • Gulag kills do count towards total kills.
      • Reviving teammates is allowed. 
  4. Griefing: Teams are permitted to work together, however, you may not intentionally cause the death of your opponent or negatively impact your opponent’s gameplay. This includes any negative interference in your opponents gameplay and will be determined by the RSG officials. Doing so will result in a forfeit of kills for that map. If you feel like this happens to you, notify a tournament official immediately and continue playing the match.
  5. Cross Platform: Cross platform is permitted. Players can play on either PS4 Console, Xbox console, PC and switch for online events, and PS4 with controller, PS4 with keyboard and mouse, or Xbox with controller.

  2. The winning team of the main bracket has to lose twice in finals.
  3. Default Start Time: All round one (1) matches have the same default start time. After round one (1), all Matches have a unique default start time that is dependent upon the time at which the teams’ previous round results were submitted. Matches must be started by their default start time and played until completion. Postponing matches is only at the discretion of Online Tournament staff.
  4. Double Forfeit: If a match is not played and neither team submits a ticket requesting the forfeit win, or both teams otherwise forfeit a game/match, the game/match win will be awarded to the higher seeded team.
  5. Seeding: Teams will be seeded at of the close of registration. Seeds are done in ascending order. The higher seed is determined by the team with the seed closest to zero (0).
    • Example: Seed four (4) is a higher seed than seed ten (10).

All Matches

  1. Warm-up: No warm-up or practice games are permitted once the match’s first game has begun. If a match is played before the scheduled time, it will not be considered a warm-up and will count as the official results.
  2. If there’s a Jailbreak, you MUST kill yourself immediately or you forfeit all kills that map.
  3. Delays: Teams may not delay the start of a match beyond its scheduled start time, without the approval of a tournament official. Teams may delay a match between games for up to five minutes. Teams can request that a tournament official enforce this five minute time limit. After five minutes of a tournament official enforced delay, if the delaying team does not have the minimum required players, they will forfeit the match.
  4. Minimum Required Players: Teams may be short handed by one player in order to start a game. A Team will Forfeit the Match if they are missing all of their players 15 minutes after a Match’s default start time (Grace Period). Teams will be forced to start a Game at the end of a Grace Period as outlined in the No Show procedure.
  5. Lag: As the game is hosted on dedicated servers, replays will not be issued for lag. If both teams agree, a restart killing current kills can happen.
  6. Disconnections: If a player does not get into the game lobby before the start of the game, all players should back out and re-form the party.
    • If a player disconnects prior to landing, the match should be replayed. If this occurs more than once, tournament live support should be contacted.
      • If a player disconnects/leaves the game after landing, their kills at the time of the disconnection (proof must be provided in the case of a disagreement) will be added to the kills of their teammate and the remainder of the game will continue.

Reporting

  1. No Shows:  The No Show grace period time is 15 minutes after the match’s original start time. For example, if a match is scheduled for 10:00 PM, the no show time for this match would be 10:15 PM.  Prior to any forfeits being made, a tournament admin must confirm that a team has failed to show up for the match.
