Tournaments allow players to battle against each other in a competitive environment in order to get pansuns, titles and various other items.
Requirements
In order to join a tournament a player needs to fulfill two requirements:
- Having a valid competetive squad.
- Finished all 10 placement matches.
Joining a Tournament
After navigating to the "Tournaments" section in the menu the player will see three entries where they will be able to see when each tournaments will be held. The specific tournament times are as follows:
- Sunday, 1 am UTC
- Sunday, 9 am UTC
- Sunday, 5 pm UTC
By clicking on the "Subscribe" button the player will receive a notification 30 minutes before the tournament begins. Subscribing only sends a notification and is not related to the registration process. Once the starting time is reached the player will be able to join the tournament using the "join" button in the same tournament menu. Only players which join the tournament are able to see the tournament brackets.
Tournament Leagues
Each tournament consists of 32 players and players will be grouped together in four different leagues according to their current TMR value. The leagues are as follows:
| League Name | League Emblem | League TMR Range |
|---|---|---|
| Bronze |  |
0-799 |
| Silver |  |
800-1199 |
| Gold |  |
1200-1499 |
| Diamond |  |
1500+ |
If 24 out of 32 players in the same league join a tournament, the remaining 8 players will be selected depending on how close their TMR is to the league range. If there are less than 24 players in a certain league TMR range, they will be assigned to the next lower league. Since the tournaments will be conducted with 32 players there is a possibility that some players are unable to participate. The affected players will be informed through a notification. Multiple tournaments for the same league are possible at the same time. In that case the average TMR of each bracket within the same leagues will be grouped together.
Tournament Procedure
The tournaments will be held in the single elimination format. This means that after each round the number of participants will be halved. Each player has to win five rounds in a row to win the tournament. The first four rounds will be held as a single match. The final fifth round will be played as a "best of 3" meaning the player who reaches 2 wins first will win the fifth round and the tournament. After losing the tournament, players are still able to spectate the tournament in which they participated.
Restrictions
Team configurations cannot be changed during the tournament but the player is able to select a different team for each match. Also the turn timers are lower comparing to a regular competitive match. The following table shows all differences:
| Type | Competetive Timer | Tournament Timer |
|---|---|---|
| Pick and Ban turn | 20 Seconds | 20 seconds |
| Pick and Ban reserve | 40 seconds | 40 seconds |
| Match turn | 40 seconds | 30 seconds |
| Match reserve | 120 seconds | 90 seconds |
Rewards
Players will receive different rewards based on their performance.

LeagueConstant:
- Tournament 0+ = 1000

- Tournament 1200+ = 4250
- Tournament 1500+ = 6600
