Rules of the League
League Levels and Divisions
In the League, there are several Levels, each with differrent number of divisions where players are listed:
- Platinum League: 1 division
- Diamond League: 3 divisions
- Gold League: 5
- Silver League: 10
- Bronze League: 30
Everyone starts at the Bronze League and can level up all the way to the Platinum League, which gives place for the very best players with only one division. The divisions exist for easier rank tracking and point comparison.
In each division, there are around 200 players listed except for the Bronze, which can grow bigger as new players join.
Every Sunday 11pm UTC, players below the position 150th will fall down to a lower level's division.
Those 50 places will be filled by the best players from the lower level.
For example:
If there are 200 players in the Platinum League, then 50 of them will fall down to one of the division's of the Diamond level.
From the 3 divisions of the Diamond League each, there will be 16 (giving 48) players leveling up to the Platinum League.
At the same League Level, the same number of players can level up in each division.
Matchmaking
Currently, everyone can play with everyone. The matchmaking is not based on the players rank or level, even though it would be possible. This way matches start significantly faster.
Match Limit
Every day (in UTC time) players can play 7 matches in total. This way players with limited time can also enjoy the competition. If the match limit is reached, the player needs to wait until 12:00 am UTC to be able to play again.
Points
- 4 points for winning
- 1 point for losing
For every match played, 1 point is given for both players and the winner gets 3 more.
Bonus Points
If not all the 7 matches are played, for the ones that are not played there is a bonus point the following day that can be earned. This compensates the unplayed match as a lost one.
For example:
If 5 matches are played on Monday, then on Tuesday 1 extra point is given for the first two matches played.
