Rules:
1. Round Robin tournament, everyone will play vs each other.
2. Each round will last one week, no extensions. Not meeting the deadline may lead to autowin for a player who clearly put more effort into scheduling the match. If its not possible to determine who should have the win, there will be a random decision.
3. Each player choose 4 heroes before the tournament starts. Hero lock for all tournament. Deck locks per round. Feel free to change the decks after each round. I will send my heroes first to a neutral person before all players send their choices.
4. All matches will be Best of Five with a ban:
Before a match, player bans one deck for their opponent. Match is played with remaining 3 decks. When a player wins with a deck, they can not use that deck for the rest of the match and must switch to one of their remaining decks. When a player loses with a deck they can continue with their losing deck or they can switch to one of their remaining decks.
First turn advantage is decided like this: Game 1 random, Game 2 alternate, Game 3 random, Game 4 alternate, Game 5 random.
5. How to determine bans? Before every match, both players will start a game with a hero they wish to ban for their opponent. You load a hero you wish to ban for your opponent. They do the same. You start a game just to show each other your bans. And after that proceed to play Bo5 match with remaining 3 decks in a way explained under rule 4. In case you load a hero that your opponent does not have, they can choose themselves and announce which hero they will not use for that match.
6. Draws or sync errors are treated the same: replay with the same starting order.
7. 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.
8. Report results on this thread or tournament TG group with the outcome of every game in the match and stating the bans. Example of format:
Player A 3-1 Player B
Player A bans Baduruu - Player B bans Skervox
Praxix > Eladwen
Victor > Eladwen
Zhanna < Eladwen
Zhanna > Gwen
9. By the end of the tournament the last 3 players in the standings will get relegated for Pro League B in a next edition.
Tiebreaks:
1. In case 2 players tie in number of matches won, the tiebreaker will be the match result between them.
2. In case 3 players tie in number of matches won, the tiebreaker will be the number of games won.
3. In case the tie remains, random decision will decide the standings.
