General Rules (Scroll down for Game Rulesets

Check In/Roll Call You are solely responsible for checking into your pool before the start time. If you are not present when your name is called, you will be either sent to the Losers Bracket OR disqualified at the discretion of the judge. If you are playing in more than one game, please notify the pool judges ASAP so you don’t get inadvertently disqualified.

NOTE: While we will try to do announcements/etc., it is UP TO YOU to keep track of time and know where you’re supposed to be, and when. Plan your lunches, money matches, nap times accordingly. Controllers:

All Dreamhack Austin FGC tournaments are Bring Your Own Controller. Rentals will not be available.

Controllers must be wired to the console.

If using a DS4, for PlayStation 4 or WiiMotes for WiiU it is your responsibility to desync the controller once the match is completed.
