Tournament Registration & Match Rules

• ・Pairing & Waiting List Handling: If a paired player is on the waiting list, priority is given to pairs over solo players. If multiple pairs cannot be matched, selection will be determined by rock-paper-scissors or dice.
• ・Unmatched Players: If no pairing is possible, store staff will participate. If the player plays alone at a priority table, their opponent from the non-priority table will win by default and earn 2 points.
• ・Pairing Method (Swiss Draw): Since TCG+ does not support pairing, use the Swiss Draw method—random pairing in Round 1, followed by pairing based on total points, ensuring the same pairs do not face each other multiple times.
• ・Point Tallying: Points cannot be tracked on TCG+. Players, please manage your scores using the tally sheet provided by the store.
• ・Ranking Method: Teams are ranked by total points, followed by OP% (opponents' average points), then OP2% (opponents of opponents’ average points). If rankings are still tied, tournament organizers will determine placement randomly.

Important Note for when applying to a 2-on-2 Battle

This event is primarily aimed at teams of two players. Players may apply solo, however please understand there‘s a chance you will be unable to play if you cannot find a partner at the event. Therefore, we recommend to apply with friends, family, etc.

When applying for an event through TCG+, both members of the pair must apply individually.

When possible, we would like to ask the store staff to kindly team up with the player who can't find a partner.
