Tournament Rules
- SEA Open will run on a single-elimination system with the winner progressing through the bracket while the loser is eliminated
---> All rounds prior to the finals will be played best-of-one on a predetermined map
---> Matches within the top eight (i.e. quarter finals, semi finals and finals) will be played best-of-three using a map-veto system from the weekly pool
- Disconnecting within a game counts as a loss, although the game can be replayed if both players agree. Finals games may be replayed if the admin feels the game was tied at disconnect.
- Use of IRC is mandatory, see website for details.
- Observers are not permitted unless both players agree
- A list of streamers will be posted each week – these players should be allowed into games regardless of whether players allow casual observers
- Use of any cheats, hacks, illegal exploits or bugs will count as a default loss
