ach team will compete in a match of Bo3 games, where each game consists of six (6) races. Each race will use the teams’ setting, splitting the two (2) teams into a four (4) versus four (4). The game will keep track of the scores each player contributes to their team, depending on the placement within each race. At the end of six (6) races, the game will tally up both teams’ total scores. The team with the highest score will win that game.

If a single team reaches two game wins before the start of the third game, then the third game will not be played.

Track Selection

Players will individually select their preferred track each game. At all times, players may choose identical tracks as another player on their team.
- Once selected, the chosen track should be shared in PlayVS Match Lobby chat for tracking in the event of any dispute.
- Once a race is complete, that track is removed from the pool for the remainder of the six (6) race game.
- At the end of a six (6) race game, the track pool will reset, and all tracks will be available for selection at the start of a new game.
If a player selects a track that has already been played in the six (6) race game, and their track is picked, a penalty of 15 points will be taken from the team’s final score for the game round.
- Tracks that are repicked via Random will not receive a penalty.

Reporting Track Selection Violations

At the end of the game, the reporting team must share the following with League Officials immediately:
- A screenshot of the ineligible track selection by the team and the game itself choosing that player’s track for play.
- A screenshot of the final point result for the game round at the end of the 6th track.
Once reviewed and confirmed that a track was incorrectly selected and chosen, League Officials will penalize the offending team by subtracting 15 points from their final team score. This penalty is additive and applied for every instance where the rule was violated during the game.
Repeated violations of this rule may result in further team penalties at the discretion of League Officials.

Tie-Breaker Resolution

In the case that both teams have equal points at the end of the six (6) races, an additional one (1) race will be set up directly following the conclusion of that game. Both teams will face off in that race and the winner of the tie-breaker is decided by the team with the highest point total at the end of the one (1) race.
Track selections are not reset for tiebreaker races.

Mii™ Racer

Players may select to play as their Mii™ Racer. All customized Mii characters must follow the PlayVS and Nintendo Code of Conduct. Violations will result in penalties applied to your account and the team. This includes anything that can be seen as offensive, vulgar, or bad sportsmanship.

In-Game Kart Controls

Players may select and update their in-game settings (such as smart steering, auto-accelerate, etc.) at any time before, during, or after a match.

Glitching

The use of any in-game glitches during a PlayVS match will not be tolerated. Any match disputes or submissions involving possible player glitches will need to be backed by video or screenshot proof of the use of a glitch. If a player is found to be using an in-game glitch to gain an advantage during a match, their team will be given a loss for that game and may be subject to further penalties at the discretion of League Officials.
