Clan Match Rules
In order to take another clans rank, you will need to play them in a competitive sniping match called a "Ranked Match" or "RM"
If you wish to play against another clan for practice, this is called a "Scrim". Regardless of the winner or loser, the ranks will NOT be changed if both teams agree that the match is not for rank. Players may use the "4FUN" clan tag if necessary, this ensures the game being held is only for practice, no rank changes will be made.
Ranked Match (RM) Rules
Simply put, when you play against another clan for their spot on the leaderboards, you are to play a 'best of three' game. Whichever clan wins 2/3 matches first, wins.
First game
Prior to playing the first game, both teams must decide which team is hosting the first match, the OPPOSITE team to the team hosting gets to choose first map and game type.
Second game
Upon completion of the first game, the opposite team hosts, and the opposite team chooses map and game type. So, if your team hosted the first game, the other team hosts and you get to choose map and game type for the second game.
Third game
If both teams are tied (1-1) then you have to complete a third game to decide which team wins. Both teams need to agree on a mutual host (A player that is to host but is NOT allowed to play that game) OR both teams need to agree on a previous host used (the host is still unable to play).
How the ranks work
If an unranked team plays against a ranked team and wins 2-1 then they take the rank BELOW the ranked team. However, if they win 2-0 they take their rank and they get pushed down a rank.
If a ranked team plays against a ranked team that is 5 positions above them and wins 2-1 then they take the rank BELOW the ranked team. However, if they win 2-0 they take their rank and they get pushed down a rank.
What happens when a player times out?
You only need 4 clan members to complete a clan match, however it is recommended to bring at least 1 sub for a ranked match.
If a player on your team times out or loses connection to the internet the player is replaced with a sub. IF you don't have a sub, you have to continue playing till either the player that timed out rejoins OR another REGISTERED team member joins the game.
DO NOT attempt to play with a free agent or another teams player if it is a ranked match.
END the game if 2 players have timed out and you know for sure they aren't coming back to play nor you have extra subs to compensate.
Disqualification (DQ)
A team will get one warning if one of their players:
Each of these are worth ONE warning each, if a team is caught with more than one warning the host MUST end the game and they will therefore forfeit the map it occurred on.
