To request a pause, team A (the one that requests a break) informs the enemy team about it through chat (message "pause please" is enough); team B has 15 seconds to begin the pause. If the pause has not been started after this time and there is no fight ongoing between teams, team A can turn it on themselves. Team B has the option of not initiating a pause if it has been requested in the middle of fighting between the players.
9. Breaks between maps in the match should not last more than 5 minutes. This also applies to golden caps - up to 5 minutes break is allowed between the main map stage and the golden cap.

11. The tournament is divided onto two phases: group stage and the playoff stage. Each game in the group stage is in the best of one system. Teams have to perform map bans in order to decide what map will be played. They need to agree on who eliminates first. If the two teams cannot agree, they need to perform a heavy fist fight. The winner of this heavy fist fight can decide if he wants to start of if the other team should. The ban order is as follows:

After the group phase, 4 teams from each group go through to the playoffs. In the event of ties, the winner of the group shall be decided by the following methods (until a winner is determined), in the order indicated:
- Match wins/draws/losses (overall)
- Points (head-to-head)
- Match score difference (head-to-head)
- Match score difference (overall)
We recommend reading about how this method works here: https://help.toornament.com/match/the-tiebreakers.

Playoff stage is held in a double elimination format without skipping round 1 and with simple grand final format (no game reset after upper bracket team loss), meaning the grand final winner is considered the tournament winner.
