1.5 - Each person must bring their own computer. Limit is one (1) laptop or desktop with one (1) monitor. Please be courteous to others and keep your monitors to the reasonable size of less than 24-inches. Power is the largest concern, but space is also an issue. Laptops are heavily preferred (Use minimum settings for smoothness in game).

1.5.1 – The computer supplied must work. We will have limited tech support on site in English, but if your computer cannot be fixed within a reasonable time-frame (as determined by the IT and Management staff) you will not be able to play. Your team may continue without you

1.5.1.1 – If a player is able to get their computer working, they may rejoin their team at a later match.

1.5.2 - A working computer is defined as having but not limited to all of the following: Working hardware, working software (OS), a patched / current League of Legends client, a working RJ45 Port (Internet port), working drivers, appropriate hardware (mouse, keyboard, etc). Tech support will be supplied as available.

1.5.2.1- This is important: PATCH YOUR LEAGUE OF LEGENDS CLIENT BEFORE COMING TO THE TOURNAMENT.

1.5.3 – A computer without an RJ45 / Wired internet connection port must use wireless internet. The player will then be responsible for their connection stability.

1.5.4 - Each person can bring whatever mouse/keyboard they choose, but if they intend on any sound, they MUST bring headphones. No speakers allowed.

1.5.5 - If possible, teams should bring routing capability for their five members; either 2 standard 4-port switches or one bigger switch. DO NOT BRING A ROUTER.

1.5.5.1 - If you are using routers and not switches, you must turn off DHCP and Wireless Capabilities. If you need assistance with either of these, you must come to setup at the beginning of the setup time. There will not be time to fix this after the tournament has started.

1.5.6 - Each person should bring their own Ethernet cord to connect to the network. We have limited cables.

1.5.7 - Each team should bring a power strip and extension cord for their systems to be plugged into. Last year we used every extension cord Facilities had, and we don't want to run out. Please feel free to bring extras for others to use as well. Make sure to mark your own property as yours.

1.6 - Each participant must own at least 16 champions in order to play (Tournament Draft Elligible). Free champions may be banned.

1.7 - Champions may be required to be auto-banned. This decision is made at the sole discretion of the Organizer. Decisions are final. Auto bans cannot be picked and therefore do not need to be banned by any team.

1.7.1 – In the event that an auto-banned champion prevents a player from having 16 champions, and therefore playing tournament draft, that player will be considered ineligible (Exception, see rule 2.2).

1.8 - If a player is banned during the tournament, their team would no longer meet the eligibility criteria and must play without that player, or voluntarily forfeit.

1.9 - Tampering with the network/power cables, equipment, pause griefing in game, or tampering with computers belonging to other teams may result in team disqualification.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2.0 - MATCH RULES

2.1 - All matches will be held using Tournament Draft mode, and Tournament Draft requires 16 owned champions. This is to ensure fairness and limit cheating and/or DC griefing.

2.2 - Any team with a player having an insufficient number of champions must get their opponent to agree to non-tournament draft mode. If they do not agree to the change of mode/rules, then the offending team must play without their ineligible players.

2.2.1 – If non-tournament draft mode is selected, both teams therefore accept risk of disconnects without the ability to pause.

2.3 - Picks and bans are to be done in the lobby. This is to prevent the possibility of a DC preventing a ban or pick.

2.3.1 – Picks and Bans should be screenshot to verify there have not been any changes if the lobby must be remade. These screenshots do not need be submitted; they are for if arbitration is required (see section 5.10).

2.3.2 – Bans in queue (after the lobby) need not be the bans chosen. They cannot however be the picks of the opposite teams. Picks need not be in the same order as in the queue. Picks cannot be different in queue than they were in lobby (IE picking Teemo instead of Lucian).

2.3.3 – In the event of a remade game for whatever reason, picks and bans must be the same as the previous game

2.3.4 - If picks/ bans were interrupted, continue where they left off when you resume. Picks and bans are final.
