– If players are tied for the cut to top 8 we will go off of tie breaker using the following:
1st: Opponents win %
2nd: Opponent’s – Opponent’s win %
3rd: Damage Taken
– Due to this players MUST record how much damage they have dealt and taken on each match slip.
** If a player forfeits a match their damage taken will be considered 7.**
– Please be respectful of both players time and do your best to make plays at an acceptable speed.
Please see below how we will handle slow play:
** 1st: If you are called to be slow playing by an opposing player a judge will come over and monitor the situation for a few minutes and observe if that is the case
** 2nd: If you are called again for slow play and a TO/Judge confirm you are, you will get a warning and be asked to play faster.
** 3rd: If you are called for a 3rd time and a TO/Judge confirm you are, you will get a Games loss (If you are in swiss that would count as a Match loss due to Bo1).

- If players in the Top 8 go to time, they continue with normal end of turn procedures;

Turn 0: The player whose turn it is when time is called
Turn 1: Opposing player
Turn 2: Last turn for the player that time was originally called on.
Turn 3: Opposing players last turn.
- If no winner is decided after the turns are finished, and this is a Top 8 match, and the players are both tied on damage, the winner is decided by sudden death, this means the first player to deal damage to their opponent, wins the match. If damage is not tied, the player with more damage taken loses. If this is game 2, the player who won game 1 wins the match.
