General rules

 

Lobby:

The team on the top side of the bracket creates the custom lobby and invites the other players.

 

Admin: 

The admin has final say and their decision is non-debatable. Contact the admin on Discord. All communication is confidential, and cannot be shared without permission from the admin.

 

Champions:

In an "All Random" lobby, champions will randomly be assigned to all players. Teams are allowed to switch champions between players on their team, but they cannot remake the lobby. If for some reason the lobby is cancelled during champ select, teams must create a "Blind Pick" lobby and select the same champions they were assigned in the original "All Random" lobby.

 

Substitutes:

Substitutes are allowed in case of emergency. If you'd like to sub in a player, contact the tournament admin.

 

Screenshots:

A screenshot of the end game lobby must be shared in Discord as verification. If a screenshot is not able to be shared, and teams cannot agree about the result of the game, both teams will be disqualified.

 

Disconnect:

If a player disconnects during champ select, the lobby will be remade as a "Blind Pick" lobby, all players must pick the same champion that was assigned to them in the previous "All Random" lobby when the player disconnected. To make sure you remember what champions are assigned to all players, it is advised to take a screenshot of every champ select.

 

No show:

If a team is not ready to start playing the game 15 minutes after the official starting time of the tournament, they will be disqualified. Before disqualification, this always has to be confirmed by an admin.

 

Scores:

Scores need to be filled in on the tournament page after the game, this can be done by going to the "Results" tab. If a team doesn't fill in their match result, the bracket will not be updated.

 

Cheating:

Cheats are not allowed. If a player is caught cheating, they will be disqualified immediately en will receive a ban from future RIV4L competitions.

 

Side selection:

The team captain of the team on the topside of the matchup will start rock, paper, scissors. The winner can choose the starting side.

 

Banned Champions:

All randomly assigned champions in ARAM are available.
