I. Rules and Templates.
1. Game version. The tournament will be held on the SoD 3.2(4.0) + HD mod version 4.1 (or the latest available version) + HW_rulez 1.38 game versions (if a new, relevant patch is released, this rule must be amended).
2. XL templates: 8mm6a,8хм12а, 6LM10a, 8xm8a, Spider. Template selection follows standard practice; the red player starts with the black template set.
3. Castle selection: random pair + trade
The host generates a pair of random castles using a special button. Immediately after generation, each player can request a regeneration once for 500 coins to be deducted from their opponent's account. If at least one castle repeats during regeneration, that same player may (but is not obligated to) request a free regeneration until a new pair of castles appears.
4. After trading castles, players trade colors.
5. Total number of restarts (113), i.e., 111+111+111, 111+112, 113

II. Regulations

The top 2 players from each group advance, having scored the most points.
In case of equal points, places are determined according to additional criteria (in order of priority):

2. Head-to-head result.
3. If it is impossible to determine the playoff qualifiers based on previous indicators, the players will be offered a scheme of transitional games.

Victory - 3 points; defeat - 0; draw - 1 point (counted at the 211+ stage after consideration by the organizers)
