The match rules are the following:

All games are First-to-3, with each set at 2 rounds and a timer of 99s.
Prismatic weapon are not allowed.
Colour 17 is banned, since it makes it harder to spot the difference between non-EX and EX moves.
Playing on Colosseum is mandatory this time.
Character switches mid-set are not allowed. You can only switch character after losing a game in a set, or at the start of Grand Finals Reset.
Report your games yourself, if you or your opponent can't report for whatever reason, please send a message to a TO so that they can do it for you.

About connection:

Players must be in Europe and have a stable wired connection (ethernet). If your connection isn't the best, send me a message. We'll do a connection test pre-bracket to evaluate whether or not you can play.
If a disconnect happen, contact a TO immediately. The player who disconnected will lose the round currently played (not the entire set nor the game, only the round itself).

If a player requests a connection test, here's how it goes:

Both player will restart their game / router to then perform a connection test (with either a TO or another player), if one player refuses to do so, they'll be DQ'd.
If one of the player has a bad connection, they'll of course be DQ'd.
If both player have a good connection after the connection test, they may redo a match between them to see if the servers are the issues. If the connection is playable, both player may play their match as normal.
If the connection is still as bad, a coin toss will be done to decide the set (i'm dropping the connect4 bit)

The bracket will be streamed on Nyhiu's twitch channel

If your game on challonge appears with the 'On stream' at the top, don't play your game, a TO will @ you to come to the stream room to play your game on stream.
