- you find your oponent and make a lobby for the BO3 series and start esl
- you roll the map in discord (all maps are rolled)

- you flip a coin in discord. The winner picks first in game one (the winner can't decide which pick he wants)
- the player who picks first and tell race, he can change his hero in secret at any time before the match starts
- the other player picks and tells a hero knowing the race

2. Who can join?
Anyone can join regardless of skill level.

3. What is the format?
Victory Point Control: 500 VPs
Starting Location: Random
Resources: Standard
- The tournament will be played in the 1 v 1 double elimination format.
- The tournament will be played on the current patch at the day of the cup.
- BO3 in winners bracket and first 2 rounds ob loosers, BO1 in later losers bracket
- rules for grand finle: Player from winners gets one game advantage. It starts 1/0. Therefore looser can decide who picks first in the first game wich is g2.

4. When does a game count?
- Contact the organizer asap if there is any trouble.
1/ Both players have to use the ESL Reporter (or save the replay and agree that this was the game in question, replay save and share is mandatory if you have an esl block active - looking at you Inekura and Bloodra1N!).
2/ Both players type L within the first minute. If an admin is present then 1 player typing L is enough.
3/ Players should contact each other and host the room.
- Organizing is done at "event-chat" channel of DoWII: Elite Mod Community Discord.
4/ It is the duty of the hosting player to contact the organizer regarding scores after all sets of a match conclude.
5/ There is a possibility no referees are available so I expect each player to know the rules by his or her heart.
6/ It would be great if observer slots can help out players in game lobby in regards to rules.

5. Maps & hero picks.
- !fufuroll in Discord "map-and-coin roller"-channel to get the map (all games unless players just agree on one)
- any map can only be played once per match
- /flip in Discord "map-and-coin roller"-channel
- map vetos may be placed after a map is rolled
- in case of heads the higher ranked player starts with picking a race, in case of tails the bottom player starts
- the one who starts, picks a race (not a hero) and announces it in the in-game chat
- the one who follows picks a hero for himself and announces it in the in-game chat
- any hero can only be played once per match and player (unless random)
- any player can veto a hero after the other one called race or hero. If the race player already played a hero of that race, it limits him to the remaining one. If he already played 2 heros, he has to change his race pick.
- Random can't be vetoed
- while map veto is permanent, hero veto only lasts one map
- overall, one hero and map veto per player and match
- who ever lost the last game can decide who picks first (race) and who second (hero) for the next map


6. Punishment for Not playing in time/Disconnections/Tardiness/Toxicity (what is wrong with you guys? smh)

Disconnections
- Both players may agree on a rematch
- If they don't, the default would be a loss for the offender
- The offender only gets a rematch, if he was ahead by the standards of a referee
- When the organizer or the referee deems there are too many rematches to the point it is delaying the tournament severely, a special rule is introduced to speed up the progress. The offender loses disconnected/dropped game. ESL reporter replays are used as a proof.

Tardiness (Playoffs)
- In case of tardiness, the organizer waits for the player as long as possible until the point is reached when awaiting further will result in delaying the progress of the tournament. If the offender does not arrive before reaching that point of no return, he or she is eliminated from the tournament or replaced by a backup.

Toxicity
- no bodily harm threats and racial/heritage insults

9. Prize Pool.
Winner of bracket A: 25€, 50€ if you play Orks at least once per BO3 (twice in case of mirrors) and twice in finals (3x if it's mirrors)
