Teams will need to be available to play games on one of the days of the first weekend, 2nd and 3rd of May, and both days of the second weekend, 9th and 10th of May!

Draft Rules
Heroes in this tournament will only be allowed to play once per match.
In the case of a disallowed Hero being picked, the draft should be remade the same way until the pick phase where the disallowed hero was picked (including the other pick in the case of a double pick).
All games on the first 3 days are best of 3, all games on the final day are best of 5.
Substitutions:
If teams need substitution players, these players will need to have a Heroes Lounge account registered before 1st of January 2026 with an account MMR below 2780, or be in a current Division 5 team.
A maximum of 2 substitution players can be used per map.

The top 2 teams will be eligible for prize money
Rules
The tournament will follow Heroes lounge banned bugs and cosmetics list, which can be found at https://heroeslounge.gg/general/ruleset.
Pauses may only be started for technical difficulties.
The time pool for pauses per map is 10 minutes, after which the game will resume.
Teams must keep replays up to 15 days after the matches. Replays should be uploaded to the Heroes Lounge website after each game. See the captain's guide for how to do this.
