Information / Rules On Team Elimination Cup
The current team cup will be a 3vs3
The Team Cup Elimination is a Cup that happens multiple times a year. This is an event where all teams come together and match each other. The Team Cup is known to be suggested by an old league player "back in the day," but it was more mentioned and organized as a special event in the HiX league by the player, Snake12534. The Event is now in process of being official in the GU league. The Rules are as followed: There will be zero tolerance for anyone who speaks in public chat during a tournament game. Please keep the talk in observer chat. There will be subs allowed, however, when there is no sub present, That person has exactly 4:59 min to return.If they do not come back within that time, the match will be forfeited despite the fact if you are losing OR winning.This is extremely important ... this also is active when a person is Not Responding. Any lag exceeding over 300 will be considered not able to participate in the match. Any jitter exceeding 16ms will be not able to participate. If your lag and jitter does not pass the test, you must find a sub within five mins. There will be no swearing, especially cheating, of course. All those rules of the normal GU League will follow. The Team Cup will be an event where we hope everyone would enjoy watching, playing , and just having a great time.
The last team standing takes home the cup!
How your team Qualifies
There is a huge major factor being played in the Team Elimination Cup, some of them are obvious, some of them are unique.
1) The first one is your team must have at least the amount of players required to participate in the team cup. Even though we hadn't hosted the team cup yet, we planned that most team cup's will be 2vs2's, 3vs3's, and 4vs4's.
2) The second one is your team must exceed an activity of 0.20 (either an average or current activity) This might sound silly, but there is a significant reason to this. We do this to avoid a person(s) creating a new team and recruiting only the top pro's. This team will not be loyal and probably be deleted after the team cup ends. We also do this qualification so that way, only *loyal* teams that had been out there for a long time can participate.
3) The third one is your team must be at least a month old before the announced date of a team cup. The reason why is similar to the one above.
4) The fourth one is The players who will participate in your team must be players had been in that team for a month before the announced date of a team cup. Why: This Cup is designed to let all players play. A team leader or team itself recruits other players that are extremely good and then uses them to play in the team cup. This excludes the loyal players in the team from playing. Even if those players who are excluded agree or not, this event is not made to be for *only the good players* such as the rikers (note: I started suggesting this event because of that reason, I am always excluded from Rikers ) this event is made for loyal players who had been in the team for a long time and respect the team.
5) The final one is that these rules might actually be removed or changed if we do not reach a successful amount of teams in this event.
All of these qualifications must be passed in order for your team to be in the team cup. We will never exclude any teams unless they do not pass these qualifications.
How The Tournament Works
The Team Cup may be confusing, that's why we will not be able to post any information on how the teams will be chosen to match and the order until we had received more information. Anyways, the basic points on the team cup is as followed: The Team Cup will always start at 17:00 GMT. It will always last no longer than 19:00 GMT. We do this so there is time for the players in the matches, time for both North American and Mid / Eastern area to all watch it. A huge note is that All Team Matches will be reported to the GU League site This will probably change however, for now it will not. The cup will be a double elimination. The cup will be all 30 minute matches except for a best out of three 20 minute matches which happens in the final three / four. The final two teams will always be a best out-ta three, 30 minute matches. The Team Cup will always be during the weekends, however this may change during very special cases.
These are just the basic, important notes, more detailed information will be released in the near future.
The Cup will be no longer than two hours.
