EU Rules

Player Eligibility

• Players may play at any race they have completed 40 1v1 ranked ladder games on. The games may not be spread across multiple servers.

• If an Nydus season spans multiple ladder seasons, players must complete 40 games in either season and be placed into a league in the current season.

• A player's league is determined by their highest current ranked SC2 league.

• If an All-Kill season spans multiple ladder seasons, a player's league will be determined by the highest league over both seasons.

• Players who achieve an MMR higher than 5350, as seen on rankedftw, in any Blizzard ladder season that overlaps a Nydus season will not be eligible to play until the following Nydus season.

• If a player leaves any of their 1v1 ladder leagues during a ladder season, they will be ineligible for the remainder of that ladder season. Players will need to compete 40 1v1 ranked ladder games in the next season to compete if the All-In season spans multiple ladder seasons.

• Teams may only play players that are part of their team.

Leagues

• Teams will consist of four players; 2 diamonds and 2 masters.

• Players may play up leagues but not down.

• If a player is not playing the race of their top ranked 1v1 league, they will still be considered the skill level of their top ranked 1v1 league.

Player and Map Selection

• The first map will be specified in the schedule.

• Subsequent maps will be chosen by the team that lost the most recent game.

• Maps may not be replayed.

• Teams must play both diamond level players before they can play either of their masters level players.

Matchup Contact

• Team Captains are responsible for working together to setup match times.

• Matches must be scheduled within the week designated by the schedule.

• If one team does not show up for a scheduled match the other team will receive a walkover victory after a grace period of 20 minutes has passed. Teams requesting walkovers must be able to show proof that the other team did not show up to the match at the scheduled time. Make sure you are using the official chat channel (AllinTheNydus) to confirm.

• Team Captains should make contact with each other by end of day Tuesday (Eastern Time) at the latest. Failure to do so will most likely lead to a walkover.

• If a match does not get scheduled the match will result in either a walkover victory for either team, no contest for both teams, or potentially losses for each team. This will be based on the amount of effort put forth in communicating with the other team's captain. All decisions will be based on a case by case basis.

Match Result Submission

• The winning team's captains must submit all match reports by the time stated in the schedule.

  • Match reports must be submitted into the Discord channel "#results" with the format in the following example:

  • Evil Geniuses 4 - 3 Team Liquid IdrA W - L VortiX IdrA L - W HuK PuMa W - L HuK PuMa L - W Sheth Grubby L - W Sheth Jaedong W - L Sheth Jaedong W - L TaeJa

Playoff Tiebreaker Rules

• Tiebreakers to seed teams after the post season will follow the following order: 1) Team Record

• 2) Overall Map Score

• 3) Head to Head Record

• 4) Coin Flip

Server Rules

• Games will be played on the EU server.

Observing and Streaming

• Team Captains, or someone filling in as a Team Captain, will be allowed to observe games.

• All other observers, including casters, will need to be approved by both Team Captains.

• Streams of games should be set to a minimum of 2 minute delay.

• Casters should refrain from excessive BM and adhere to all other Community Relations rules.

Community Relations

• Any form of BM can result in a player, or team, being banned from competing for the rest of the season, or indefinitely. Punishment will be handled on a case by case basis.

• Any form of cheating will result in a player, or team, being banned from competing for the rest of the season, or indefinitely. The team will be disqualified from the week(s) that cheating occurred.

• Any public accusations of cheating, that is clearly beyond joking, may result in a player, or team, being banned from competing for the rest of the season, or indefinitely. Punishment will be handled on a case by case basis.
