Following the rulebook/wiki page is mandatory to participate in tournaments; members who fail to follow the rulebook's guidelines will receive a warning, suspension, or ban from tournaments and the Roblox Combat League. (We had to ban 3 people for disobeying the rules)

Reading the rules is recommended, but it is mandatory to know all the rules and how the matches will work. This is because many branches of the league have many different rules that don't line up with each other. For example, PCRC uses the 6-5-5 judge system, RBC uses the 4-3-3 judge system, RBB uses the 3-3-4 judge system, and SBCS uses the 1-1-1 judge system.
