These are the Apex Legends Tournament Rules that govern gameplay and behavior during our tournaments. It's important to remember to play with respect for your opponent and fellow players at all times. We have included rules for various situations, but if you need help, please contact a member of GAME On PDX. We will review the Apex Legends Tournament Rules periodically and consider feedback and amendments that are submitted in writing. All players are expected to adhere to the behavior guidelines and online tournament rules.

Tournament schedules will be posted on the GAME On PDX site before the tournament starts.

The GAME On PDX team will work under the assumption that each participant is aware of all the rules and checks them regularly although significant rule changes will be communicated. A lack of knowledge of the rules will not be used as an excuse for rule-breaking.

Players who take part are required to play with the Steam ID they have specified. In the event another account is going to be used, submit this to the GAME On PDX team at the earliest opportunity along with an explanation for the switch.

Every participant is required to be online in the Discord chat of the tournament they are participating in. Players are responsible for his or her own internet connection and ensuring they have the most up to date gamer version installed.

Players found breaking the rules will be penalized. The exact punishment will be decided by GAME On PDX. Examples of punishments are replay, penalty points, exiting the tournament early, a temporary or a permanent ban.

If there are suspicions that your opponent is not playing by the rules or serious lag occurs for a long time, report this to the GAME On PDX team as soon as possible, before your opponent has taken benefit of the problem.
