Welcome to FTOYD! These Rules are designed to ensure that participation in FTOYD Fortnite tournaments is fair, safe, and enjoyable for all players. They help maintain a friendly environment, prevent toxic behavior (see section 4), and support fair competitive play.

By participating in FTOYD Fortnite tournaments, including registering, confirming participation, or joining any match, you automatically agree to the current version of these Rules.

FTOYD tournament Rules may be updated at any time. The updated version becomes effective once it is published on the FTOYD platform or in official communication channels.

By continuing to participate in tournaments after such updates, you confirm your agreement with the revised Rules. If you do not agree with the changes, you must stop participating in current and future tournaments.

By participating in events on FTOYD, to the extent permitted by applicable law, players agree to release and hold harmless FTOYD LTD or Epic Games, Inc., their licensors, affiliates, and their and their respective employees, officers, directors, agents, contractors, and other representatives from any and all claims, demands, actions, damages, liabilities, and expenses related to the event.

FTOYD tournament events are in no way sponsored, endorsed, administered by, or associated with Epic Games, Inc. Any information provided by players in connection with this event is provided to the event organizer named in the event title, not to Epic Games, Inc.

The FTOYD platform administration, organizers, and support agents have the authority to make decisions regarding violations that are not explicitly listed in the Rules but align with their overall spirit and purpose.

When awarding prizes, FTOYD retains a 10% service fee from the total prize pool. This service fee is deducted automatically when funds are distributed among players after the tournament concludes.

FTOYD organizers may adjust the tournament schedule, format, or participant list for organizational, technical, or other objective reasons.

Organizers are not responsible for any inconvenience or losses caused by such changes.

By continuing to participate after receiving a notification, you confirm your agreement with the updated conditions.

Registration is a mandatory step for tournament participation. To successfully register and join a match, players must follow these rules:

Each tournament has its own scoring system and reward distribution rules, which are published in its official regulations.

Penalty systems are used to maintain fair play and equal conditions for all participants. Penalties are applied according to the rules of the specific tournament and the recommendations of the FTOYD administration.

Disputes related to gameplay, placement decisions, sub-match outcomes, interpretation of player actions, or verification of fair play within a specific match, are the sole responsibility of the tournament organizer. FTOYD does not review such disputes and does not intervene in gameplay-related decisions.

The organizer must resolve disputes based on the tournament's regulations and principles of fair competition. Players must follow the established procedures and provide valid evidence when required.

1. The player submits an inquiry to the organizer through the tournament chat or ticket system.

2. The organizer reviews the information and makes a decision according to the tournament regulations.

3. If the player believes the organizer violated FTOYD rules, they may file a complaint with FTOYD support.

4. FTOYD reviews such complaints only regarding the organizer’s actions, not gameplay moments.

An Additional Start is the creation of an extra game lobby, triggered when a significant number of players fail to join the main lobby.

A Restart is the re-creation of the main lobby if players cannot enter it or if a technical error prevents a proper game start.

Procedure for Additional Start or Restart:

Consequences of Additional Start or Restart:

It is mandatory to monitor the match chat on the platform to avoid missing information about additional starts or restarts, as missing these announcements may result in missing participation in the correct lobby.

Teams must participate in the tournament with the roster specified during registration. Player substitutions are allowed no later than 10 minutes before the tournament start by canceling the original registration.

Each player is required to participate using the Fortnite account specified during registration. Using another player’s account undermines the integrity of competitions and damages trust in the platform.

Violation of this rule will result in the suspension of all associated accounts.

A participant is allowed to register for a tournament only once. Registering with multiple accounts and/or participating in multiple teams simultaneously violates the principles of fair competition.

Violation of this rule will result in the suspension of all associated accounts.

During matches, in team chats, voice channels, and any official spaces, behavior that violates community norms and creates a hostile atmosphere is prohibited.

Every participant is required to play fairly and with the intention to win. Deliberately undermining your team's efforts or attempting to disrupt the game for others is strictly prohibited.

Nicknames used on the platform must not contain any offensive or provocative content. This rule also applies to avatars, team names, and other visual elements.

An account suspension may be lifted early if the participant provides evidence to technical support that the visual elements have been changed to ones that comply with this rule.

Participants must comply with the procedures established by the organizers and refrain from obstructing their work. Communication should remain constructive and within the designated channels.

Participants are required to interact honestly with tournament organizers and other platform users.

The platform is not an advertising space or a medium for spreading malicious content.

Lobby access codes are confidential information that may only be shared with players directly involved in the tournament or in special technical situations. Sharing these codes with unauthorized individuals is strictly prohibited!

Prohibited:

Each team must compete independently. Any deliberate cooperation between different teams aimed at gaining an unfair advantage violates the principles of fair play.
