Sessions that count towards the tournament: ːbh2coinːːbh2coinːːbh2coinːːbh2coinːːbh2coinːːbh2coinːːbh2coinːːbh2coinː (8)
For each win, players receive additional points that depend on the strength of the opponents over whom they have won. Important: your tournament points will continue to increase with the increase in the tournament score of your past opponents, over whom you prevailed – even if you already have reached the limit of sessions for the tournament. What this means is that the tournament is never over for you as long as your previously conquered opponents continue to play, and win.
During this tournament, regular rating points will be frozen for all the players. Your tournament sessions will NOT affect your regular rating.
Players get tournament points for the first 8 sessions played in the tournament on each of the servers. Any subsequent sessions won't give any tournament points, and won't increase the number of defeated opponents who give additional points. Nonetheless, victories of all opponents who were defeated in the first 8 sessions will affect your final tournament rating.
In the case when at the end of the tournament two or more players will have equal number of tournament points, they will share the same (highest) place and get the same rewards. However, the award list will not be extended, and we will still award only the top 10 players on each server.

(2) Each round, every player is presented with 3 cards and chooses the 1 card that they will receive after the current move. The other two cards go into the discard pile.
(3) Each player starts with an active The Accelerator.
ːvotesː RULES:
Each player has 2 lives (ːhypnoheartː ːhypnoheartː). With every session lost, you lose one ːhypnoheartː. You will earn tournament points for winning sessions as long as you have at least one ːhypnoheartː.
If you have no more ːhypnoheartː, you can still continue to play (to kick out other competing players), but you will not receive any more tournament points for your own victories – however, you will continue to accumulate additional tournament points whenever the players whom you previously conquered (before or after losing all your ːhypnoheartː), score any further victories.
During this tournament, regular rating points will be frozen for all the players. Your tournament sessions will NOT affect your regular rating.
For each victory, players receive points that depend on the strength of the opponents over whom they have won (while no tournament points are granted for losses). Important: your tournament points will continue to increase with the increase in the tournament score of your past opponents, over whom you prevailed. What this means is that the tournament is never over for you as long as your previously conquered opponents continue to play, and win.
In the case when at the end of the tournament two or more players will have equal number of tournament points, they will share the same (highest) place and get the same rewards. However, the award list will not be extended, and we will still award only the top 20 players on each server.
