Check in:
Pool Play:
CHECK IN IS DONE 30 MINUTES PRIOR TO THE LEAGUE START, PLEASE BE SURE YOU’VE CHECKED IN OR YOU WILL BE DISQUALIFIED.
Bracket Stages:
YOU MUST CHECK-IN TO EVERY MATCH. IF YOU DO NOT CHECK-IN, YOUR TEAM WILL BE DISQUALIFIED, EVEN IF YOU ARE PLAYING YOUR MATCHES.
Game Rules:
Please visit our PRL Community Discord for any immediate tournament support issues. https://discord.gg/PRL
All tournaments are held on a first come basis. When maximum teams are reached, no further slots will be added. Be sure to sign up early!
Checkins are done on a “Per Match” basis. Each game will have 5 minutes of leeway before PRL’s disqualification rules apply.
If your opponents have not responded to you within the 5 minute grace period, please contact a PRL Moderator on Discord. After the Moderators contact them, the other team has 5 minutes to respond before being disqualified.
Games will be played in a Best of 3 series in all matches before the Pro grand finals which are Best of 5. Once the game has concluded, please submit the accurate series score on your match schedule. Be sure to take multiple screenshots in the case of match/score disputes.
Teams may have only 1 substitute player in their roster for a tournament (the substitute must be registered on the team prior to tournament start).
Substitutions may only occur outside of "Best of" series. Teams must participate with their starting roster for the entirety of the series.
All games will be played on US-West servers unless both teams pre-arrange and agree on a different server. Please use the tournament match chat to arrange a different server region.
If you are experiencing severe unplayable lag/ping, please take screenshots to provide as much proof as possible before restarting a match. Without screenshots, the PRL staff may not be able to assist you in the case of a dispute. Note: If one minute of game time has passed or 1 goal scored, the match may not be remade. Please leave with ample proof of the lag beforehand.
If your teammate(s) disconnect halfway through a match after 1 minute or 2 goals, you must continue playing. Teammates may rejoin the match but the match must continue. A match may be held once per series maximum due to technical issues or disconnects. This hold must last no longer than 5 minutes. If the hold lasts more than 5 minutes or a teammate is not present for the next game, you will be disqualified.
No spectators are allowed (for streamed games, only PRL approved spectators are allowed).
