Tournament Format:
Group Stage.
Groups are formed randomly via draw, ensuring an equal number of players in each group (or +1 in one or more groups). The number of groups is determined by the number of registered participants.
Tournament participants are divided into several baskets based on skill to form the groups.
1st basket: Will, Dexterwar, sir_moz, Bradiaga
2nd basket: Stefandmy, s_e_r_e_g_a, BOLIVAR, G_L
3rd basket: KillAndAction, Baton, KIR9XMI, vovan112013
4th basket: Chris, Proska, flate, HR.ARTES.
The draw for each basket takes place separately. Each player must play TWO games against every member of their group. Before each game, the judge randomly determines which faction the player will use in that specific game from the two factions chosen by the player FOR THE ENTIRE TOURNAMENT. Participants determine the color for the 1st game themselves; if difficulties arise in choosing a color, they must contact the judge. In the 2nd game against each other, participants swap colors. Players may play ahead if opponents are available.
Those who finish 1st and 2nd in each group at the end of the group stage advance to the playoffs.
Playoff Stage.
Pairs for the quarterfinals and semifinals (or just semifinals, depending on the number of registered participants) are formed randomly via draw. Finalists are determined by the results of the semifinals. Before each game, the judge randomly determines which faction the player will use in that specific game from the two factions chosen by the player FOR THE ENTIRE TOURNAMENT. All games in the playoff stage follow a bO3 format. The tournament winner is decided in the final. Participants determine the color for the first and deciding 3rd game themselves; if difficulties arise in choosing a color, they must contact the judge. After the 1st game against each other, participants swap colors in every subsequent game. A stream from both finalists during their games is preferred but not mandatory.

Tournament Rules:
1. Games are played on the latest official version of the game. Currently – HoMM V: Tribes of the East 3.1; in this tournament, the Tournament Edition mod version 6.8_ test3 is used. Skill Wheel for viewing directly in-game.
The game can be played via GameRanger, Radmin, Hamachi, Remobo, COMODO EasyVPN and similar programs.
2. Since the game has autosave - it is recommended to save once every 3 days.
3. Before the game, participants must choose a template and a faction for play. The template is chosen first, then the faction.
3.1. TEMPLATE SELECTION IS DONE BY THE BLUE PLAYER FOLLOWING A 1-1-...1 SCHEME FROM THE FULL LIST. The blue player starts first.
Template list - crown, letos, m3, mask, labyrinth, rainbow, spider, sun.
3.2. FACTION SELECTION IS MADE BY THE PLAYER FROM THE TWO SPECIFIED DURING REGISTRATION FOR THIS TOURNAMENT. Before each game, the judge randomly determines one of the player's two factions chosen FOR THE ENTIRE TOURNAMENT.
4. The use of any bugs, undocumented features, cheat codes, as well as unofficial programs and modifications is prohibited, except for the TE mod itself (and software creating virtual networks).
5. In case of connection loss or game crash, the last autosave is loaded; players are required to exactly repeat all their moves up to the moment of connection loss or crash. If a connection loss or crash occurs on the first day of the game, heroes are randomly assigned again.
6. In battles between players, a stalemate situation may arise (where neither player can win). In this situation, the attacking side must retreat or surrender (at their discretion). If the Shackles of War artifact is involved in the battle, then in case of a stalemate, the battle should be finished in AutoCombat mode.
7. Each participant has the right to 1 restart with map regeneration for each game against every opponent, no later than the second day of the first week of the first month. The end of the day is considered the pressing of the "end turn" button, regardless of whether the opponent has finished their current turn or not. Generating all 3 maps before starting the game is not mandatory. The first map can be generated, and then each subsequent one only after each respective player restart.
7.1. Simultaneous turn disconnection or desync in week 1 - technical restart (except cases where both players are ready to continue the game).
7.2. Simultaneous turn disconnection in week 2 and later - the game continues (except cases where both players are ready to start the game over).
8. "Red-rush" is prohibited, meaning an attack by red on the first day of the week with purchased growth (the red player may attack on the first day, but without purchasing growth).
9. Joining neutrals is prohibited. As an exception, joined units can be taken to be sacrificed in a pit or sold at the market, but not put into battle. Goblins who join the army after "Treachery" triggers may remain in the army.
10. It is prohibited to use the same-day spell "Astral Gates" to jump from any zone into the opponent's starting zone if the portal/garrison connecting them has not been breached. It is also prohibited to use "Astral Gates" to jump to an adjacent zone of the opponent and enter the opponent's starting zone in the same turn.
11. Pressing wait on Krag's first strike in battles with opponent heroes is prohibited; it is permitted against neutrals.
12. In each individual game in a group, 1 point is awarded for a win and 0.5 points for a draw.
13. When determining the player's position in the tournament table during the group stage, if points are equal, the following criteria apply:
- Berger coefficient (a 2-0 score is equated to a 1-0 score if the game between opponents in a group follows a bO2 scheme);
- result of the head-to-head meeting;
- number of wins;
- number of draws;
- number of losses;
- additional game.
The additional game is played between opponents according to tournament rules. Participants determine the color for the game themselves; if difficulties arise in choosing a color, they must contact the judge.
14. Attention! LOADS ARE PROHIBITED in this tournament!!
Exception: both players have reached a mutual agreement on the number of loads. If, despite the agreement on the number of loads, players have disagreements about the outcome of the game (win/loss) due to loads, the tournament judge reserves the right to decide the outcome of the game.
