Rules of automatic match evaluation

• 1) If both sides submit the same vicotry-by-default request - automatically locks the match with a result corresponding to the submissions
• 2) If only one side sends a submission - automatically locks the match with the result corresponding to this exact submission
  • If no visible activity is detected on the side of the other party, they will be temporarily removed from the tournament
• 3) If neither side submits a victory by default:
  • a joker card from the first profile's account is used in case the planned start of the match is entered and corresponds to the Joker Card week, but a Joker Card was not yet used
  • the match is locked with no winner if either no term was set, the term does not correspond to time set to play the match, or the match should have already been played according to the term
  • If no term is found and no Joker Card is used, subsequently the profile, which has not been active in the chat, is disconnected
• 4) if the situation meets none of the above listed criteria - match is locked with no winner

If the match is locked in the playoffs (with the exception of the group stage) the side which ranked higher in the first phase advances into the next round.

Rules of winning by default can be subject to change over time
