Competition Format
Each team will play every other team twice, with each meeting consisting of two games (four games total against each opponent).
Teams earn points throughout the tournament, with the Lyrean Cup awarded to the team that finishes top of the standings.
Officiating
There is no referee playback. All decisions are made in real time and are final.
Matches may be played on the PvP server where available.
If no referee is available, matches will be self-officiated by both teams.
Disputes
If a disagreement cannot be resolved during a self-refereed match, the game may be postponed until a referee is available.
If the teams cannot agree on a suitable time to replay the fixture, the match may be declared a double forfeit at the organisers' discretion.
Mercenaries
Teams may use mercenary players where required.
Mercenaries may either be drafted by teams or allocated by the tournament organisers to ensure fixtures can be played fairly.
