Match Rules
Winning Condition
The winning team will be determined by the team with the largest number of total kills in a BO3 series.
- Note: Players that are downed are NOT considered standing.
- Kills made after a match has concluded will not count.
- Example: Players A, B, and C are all dead. Player D is still standing. If Player A gets a kill, that kill will count towards the team's overall score. The second that player D dies, no other kills that occur after Player D's death will be counted.
Griefing
Teams may work together when playing. They also may kill steal, loot steal and follow each other around but are NOT allowed to destroy chests the opposing team are actively going for or build a wall that intentionally blocks your opponent from getting loot. Intentionally blocking your opponent's shots/travel or loot acquisition when not on a structure built by you or your team is a forfeitable offense if the act is found to be intentional and has a drastic effect on the outcome of the match it is at the admins discretion to forfeit the team. You can build platforms or walls on your OWN ramps after 3 builds high, if your opponent decides to use your ramp they risk being blocked without forfeit.
Members are not allowed to cause the death, injury, or sabotage of any of their cooperative opponent(s) (co-ponent). A word of advice would be to simply stay away from your opponents. This can include but is not limited to intentionally destroying/damaging their built structures/cover, making them fall, purposely hitting them with boogie bombs, impulse grenades, or to have caused an interruption of healing.
Proof of an opponent obviously sabotaging the other team in the defined cases above as well as any actions otherwise directly affecting the outcome of the game in an unsportsmanlike manner can result in a forfeit at admin's discretion. A word of advice would be to simply stay away from your opponents.

Cheating
Breaking any rule and any form of cheating, glitching, abusing in-game mechanics, or unsportsmanlike behavior may result in a forfeit of a game, match, or ban from Gamers.com.mt's tournaments. Cheating, glitching, and abusing in-game mechanics accusations must be verified by a tournament official. Punishable unsportsmanlike behavior includes, but is not limited to, excessive use of foul or degrading language. For all cheating claims, the burden of proof is on the accuser.
Proof
