Since the matchmaking and execution of the tournament are carried out by automatic systems, we would like to remind participants that players who are not on the server before the tournament start time and cannot provide a stable connection to the server at least 5 minutes before the round starts will be automatically excluded from that round.

Attention: Since it will not be possible to organize the tournament correctly and a timely manner, the participants not present at the tournament venue on the first day of the tournament without prior notice, will be dropped from the tournament.
