All team players must be able to enter Poland to participate in the tournament - this includes required passports and visas. The Operator may request proof that the team will be able to attend the LAN event. Lack of ability to enter Poland may result in exclusion from any tournament stage.
Our event meets Valve Ranked Tier 2 requirements for tournaments with direct VRS invitations. HLTV.org, after our application, will decide which stages and matches will count towards VRS. The Operator is unable to guarantee before the event whether the ranking status is confirmed. We have established direct contact and will apply at the recommended time.
Integrity rules:
The Operator reserves the right to exclude a team if its players have VAC-banned accounts or other proofs of them cheating exist, e.g., a ban on the Faceit platform.
The Operator reserves the right to exclude a team if there is evidence or suspicion of fair-play violations, e.g., match-fixing.
