Guidelines
In order to better understand the rules of the tournament, we recommend carefully reading the Marvel Rivals Championship Tournament Rules
Rules
1. Participants from other regions must be at least 16 years old at the time of registering. Participants who are 16 years old but are still regarded as minors at the time of registering must submit a fully signed guardian consent form to the organizer before they can participate (the legal adult age will be determined according to the legal requirements of the participant's country of nationality).
2. Participants should not have been subject to any illegal charges or have had a criminal record in the past 3 years and should not currently have any pending criminal cases.
3. Participants must register and compete using an appropriate name. If a participant chooses not to use their legal name, then the organizer retains the right to limit or modify their name at its sole discretion.
4. Faction Name and Faction Tag are the essential identifications for a Faction. They should be appropriate and should not contain any illegal or contents, or contents the organizer deems inappropriate.
5. Participants shall refrain from making any statements that are illegal, disrespectful towards other players or tournament participants, or otherwise deemed inappropriate during live streams.
6. In PC events, participants are allowed to use keyboards and mouses, as well as controllers. In console events, participants are only allowed to use controllers. It is strictly prohibited to use an emulator to emulate controller with keyboard and mouse and/or any other devices. If a participant violates the rules regarding the use of devices, the organizer reserves the right to disqualify the participant.
7. All players from regions other than Mainland China can register for the North America, Europe, or Asia Tournaments. However, selecting a distant region may lead to high latency in all matches. Each individual player with a single legal identification document may select only one region to compete in.
8. The tournament offers an exhilarating competitive experience for all participants who strive to win. In order to ensure that every match holds significant value, it is essential for fair conditions to be maintained for all participants. Our concept of fairness encompasses a gaming environment devoid of cheating, misuse of game systems, harassment, and any behavior that obstructs optimal participant performance.
9. Please note that Marvel/Disney are not the sponsor of this event nor the provider of prizes.
