General Rules:
1. To set up a match, you must either challenge or be challenged by someone from another guild.
2. You can only challenge someone if you have not already been challenged and do not have a pending or unreported match.
3. A challenge must be completed within 10 days time. If it is not, I will provide a ruling on who the winner is depending on the circumstances.
4. If a challenge has been made and either the hero of the challenger or the challenged has previously been revealed, then I will reveal the hero of the other person. If a match has been played before I can reveal the hero, the match results will remain valid.
5. Edited challenge posts, match results, save and team up declarations will be considered void unless they have been quoted or been recorded already by me in the list of challenges.
6. Each match will be a best of three games.
7. Deck content must be locked within a best of three match.
8. Each participant must only use the hero that was PMed to me by the guild captain.
9. The result of the match must be posted in this thread and either the winner or loser can report it.
9a. The winner of the match can only challenge someone else after one hour of the posting of the results but anyone can challenge the winner immediately after.
10. The loser of a match can no longer challenge or be challenged unless a Save or Team Up option was successfully attempted.
11. The winner of a match can only be challenged again after the results of the match has been reported.
12. Replacements for guild members unable to play will only be allowed if that guild member has not challenged or been challenged yet. New replacement player will have to use the hero that the original player was to use.
Options Rules:
13. Each guild will have one Team Up option and two Save options.
14. A Save option challenge will only be valid if it is immediately after the defeat of a guild member.
14a. A Save option can be declared by the player who just lost or any team member who is alive.
14b. The player who will do the saving must post the challenge declaring that it is a save and do so within 24 hours or the save option will be invalid.
14c. The player being challenged for the save will have to wait 24 hours before challenging or being challenged if a save has been declared by the other guild.
14d. The save option must be posted only after the match results have been declared by either player.
15. The player being challenged for a Save option is not deck locked to what was used in the previous match.
16. A Save option cannot be used to revive a guild member who has died in a Team Up matchup.
17. A Save option can be used whether a player was challenged or if the player was the one who challenged just as long as the challenges are consecutive.
18. Team Up option must be posted in the thread by individual players and must be done within 1 day of the challenge.
19. Participants in a Team Up can change decks when playing against the other opponent in the Team Up option.
Game rules:
20. A sync error will have to be replayed unless a player concedes.
21. A frozen game will have to be replayed unless a player concedes.
22. If a player is disconnected during a game, the victory goes to the other player unless BOTH players agree to replay or a player concedes.
23. If there are objections by either player concerning a game within a match, the continuation of the match can be delayed and the objection raised to the tournament organizer for a resolution. A further 7 days to meet the match completion deadline will then be given after a resolution has been given on the objection.
Mechanics of the Save Option:
The Save option can be used to save a fellow guild mate by challenging the player who defeated the guild mate as long as long as it is immediately after the defeat and the player to be challenged is still available. If the guild mate is successful, the defeated guild mate is "saved" and can challenge or be challenged again but the opposing player is not considered "defeated" and can still challenge or be challenged. If the second challenge is lost, then the person attempting the Save will also be killed.
Scenarios for Save Option:
Scenario 1 - Successful Save:
1. Guild A member 1 loses to Guild B member 1.
2. Guild A member 2 immediately challenges Guild B member 1 and attempts a Save.
3. Guild A member 2 WINS and outcome is:
- Guild A member 1 is alive
- Guild B member 1 is still alive
4. One of the two Save options is used for Guild A.
Scenario 2 - Failed Save:
1. Guild A member 1 loses to Guild B member 1.
2. Guild A member 2 immediately challenges Guild B member 1 and attempts a Save.

2. Guild B member 1 challenges or is challenged by another player.
3. Guild A member 2 challenges Guild B member 1 to try to attempt a Save.
4. Save is invalid.
5. No Save option has been used for Guild A.
Mechanics of the Team Up Option:
Team Up option can be used to team up against a player of an opposing guild. This means that both players in the team will need to be defeated in order for one of them to be defeated. If only one is defeated, then that win is not considered a defeat for the other team member.
Scenarios for Team Up Option:
Scenario 1 - Single Team Up Success:
1. Guild A member 1 challenges Guild B member 1.
2. Guild A member 2 DECLARES a team up and challenges Guild B member 1 as well.
3. Either Guild A member 1 OR 2 defeats Guild B member 1 and outcome is:
- Guild A member 1 AND 2 are alive
- Guild B member 1 is dead
4. Team Up option is used up for Guild A.
Scenario 2 - Single Team Up Failure:
1. Guild A member 1 challenges Guild B member 1.
2. Guild A member 2 DECLARES a team up and challenges Guild B member 1 as well.
3. BOTH Guild A member 1 AND 2 are defeated by Guild B member 1 and outcome is:
- Guild A member 1 AND 2 are dead

4. Order of the matches to be played will be as follows:
- Initial challenger will play against who was initially challenged.
- Whoever wins will continue to play against the second (backup) challenger.
- If the player wins again then that player's guild wins.
- If the player loses second match, then the backup will take over.
5. In order to win a Double Team Up, both opposing players must be defeated by either the main challenger or the backup.
6. Winning Team Up guild will have both it's players alive regardless of match results while losing team will have both their players dead.
7. Team Up option is used for both guilds.
Scenario 4 - Invalid Double Team Up:

2. A day has passed since the challenge was declared.
3. Either Guild A or B member 2 DECLARES a team up and challenges Guild A or B member 1 as well.
