Due to the Battle.net chat bug and 40-man limit in chat channels, we highly recommend that people join our Discord server. This is free and can be used straight from your web browser (NO installation required!). Joining the server will allow you to find your opponents easily and ask admins for help. Click here to join the Discord server. You can ping admins by typing @admin in the chat.
Rules
Location - EU server, channel TLOpen
Turn rate - TR12 is the default. Players can agree to use any turn rate.
Player eligibility - No Korean or Chinese IP addresses. Exceptions may be made on a case-by-case basis at the tournament admins' discretion.
Players may change race between games. Random is allowed.
DQ time is 15 minutes. Please be careful of the B-net chat bug!
Players must use the same ID on Battle.net, Challonge, and Discord if possible. Otherwise it becomes difficult to find your opponent and can lead to incorrect WOs.
The winner of each match must upload the replay to Challonge.
If there is a disconnect, replay the game unless one player disputes (due to having a large advantage). Then, a TL admin must watch the replay and make a decision to regame or give the win. TL admins have the final decision in ALL situations.

it's encouraged! Nobody minds facing easy opponents in a tournament and it's a great opportunity for you to get to play against some reasonably big name.

Can you explain why please ?
It would strongly reduce the effect of ramps or chokes in the game, and therefore reduce the defenders advantage while it strengthens the attacker as big armies can perform much more concentrated and coordinated attacks. I don't dare to predict the effect on the balance but these changes would likely lead to more games of the type 1 battle decides the winner.
