Player IDs
For this tournament, players must register their unique game account (found in the Game & Social accounts section) on their EGL profile. All Player IDs on a team’s roster must be 100% valid and accurate. Spelling, spaces and characters must be exact, but do not need to be case sensitive.
If your username is found to be incorrect this is strictly not allowed and will result in team disqualification. Inputting your email address instead of your unique username is strictly not allowed and will result in team disqualification.
How To Compete
Console Cross-play
This tournament is specifically set up for PlayStation 4 users only. Any players found to be playing on any other platform will be disqualified from the tournament and suspended. Proof must be provided if a team is found to be doing so.
Game Session Setup
The captain of the hosting team will host a public SQUAD game session. The hosting player will then invite their teammate and opponents using their epic usernames. Once all players are in the lobby, players should ready up and start matchmaking.
How To Win
The team with the most kills at the end of the game session will be awarded the win. If there is a tie in kills, we will use “life duration” time to determine a tie breaker. If both teams and all players survive to the end of the round, the team who achieved the final kill shall win the map.
Kill Frenzy
Teams will party up as a SQUAD with your opponents. The teams that have queued up together are NOT ALLOWED to contribute/cause the death of the player(s) they're competing against within that game. Players caught doing so will be disqualified from their match.
