Team Requirements
Each Duo must consist of one player who has not qualified for an FNCS semi-finals in the past 3 years.


Any changes to roster can be made up until 7 days prior to the tournament, however all changes must be made clear to tournament staff in advance, and must comply with the above rule. Tournament organizers reserve the right to reject player applications at their sole discretion even if players are technically eligible due to the above rule.


Late arrival
We will give a 10 minute grace period from when the first match should start, we will then start the lobby with all players currently in queue, players who are not in the lobby after this time may miss out on a round but will be able to rejoin for the next one. At the discretion of the tournament organizers this may be adjusted.

Matches will be hosted on the NA East Server.

All players must play on their own Epic accounts.

If a player disconnects during the warm up of a round (before players drop into game), the game may be restarted at the discretion of the Tournament Organizers.

For clarity, a player’s receipt of coaching or use of the in-game replay tool does not fall within this prohibition.
