Penalties
Preparation Time (after pairings and before start of the round)
After the start of the round, if the opponent is still not at the table, you get a walk over.
*A walkover refers to awarding the victory to the participant whose opponent did not show up within 5 minutes after the start of the round
Timekeeping
Each player is responsible for their own timekeeping should they miss out on the notifications and pings from the judges.
Set-up
- All hand cards are always on screen (if you wish to move your hands off screen, please put the cards in your hand on the field).
- Entire Field (Deck, hand, drop zone, damage zone, memory, stock, clock, flag, order zone, ride deck, etc.) has to be visible at all times.
- Ensure all equipment are charged and functioning properly
- Ideal set-up: Camera at an angle where you can always see the player’s hands
Throughout the Tournament
Disconnected from the table: Once = Warning, Twice = Game loss
Should you face any video feed issues and want to reconnect, call a judge first before attempting to reconnect.
If the player connects, then disconnects, they have 5 minutes to reconnect before they are awarded a game loss. Players who reconnect after 1 minute will have to shuffle the deck. (For cards that rearranged the player deck, it will be a case by case basis by the Judge)
*Players who are unable to resolve camera issue within 10 mins will receive a match loss.
