TEAM SUBSTITUTES

If you require a player change, please report to our Tournaments Discord Server. This can be done up until 30 minutes prior to the tournament starting. After this time, no further player swaps are allowed.

Lobby invites will be issued 10 minutes before the map veto starts and will be visible on the dashboard. Upon the lobby countdown completing with all players in, team captains will begin the map veto process. The system will randomly choose which team goes first. The map veto process is completed on our website and has the following rules.


Knife Round will determine which team gets to choose starting side. After winning the Knife Round, any member of the winning team can type either ".stay” or “.switch”. The match will then briefly restart and continue as normal. Teams have 30 seconds to decide which side to start. This is currently not displayed in game.
Pausing is allowed by team captains by entering “.pause”. Pauses may only take place once per half, for each team. Anyone besides team captains found pausing or abusing this function could face disqualification. Examples of technical issues requiring a pause is server lag, which a team captain can then report to an admin, player crash etc. Pauses will have a 5 minute timer and can be resumed by entering “.unpause”. This must be done by both team captains in order to unpause.
Players must stay on the server post match and await to be kicked out by CME.GG. This usually takes only 1¬-2 seconds.


Once the match starts, there will be no restarts. Any issues in lobby or during warm up can be reported to an admin. Otherwise, any issues during the match will have to be dealt with by competitors. An admin is able to overrule this under specific circumstances.
