By participating in our events, you confirm that you have read and agree to the "Legal Terms" and all specific event rules.
 

 

1. DEFINITIONS


 

  • Player | Means any person enrolled in an event organized by the ESM. It also means any player connected to an official ESM game server.
  • Admin | Means a Game Administrator who was designated by the ESM to ensure the rules are followed during a match.
  • Official server or events | This means any server or event that is officially recognized and organized by the ESM.
  • Maps |  Means the game mode scenarios.
  • Regular event | Masters CUP and A-Series.

 

 

2. SANCTIONS


 

Any infraction of the rules established by the ESM can lead to a sanction that will be decided by the ESM staff and that can go up to permanent banishment.

 

 

2. RESPECT


 

The ESM is an e-Sports organization, not a political party or a philosophy class. At any time and in any place within ESM's environment, players are expected to behave with respect. Any kind of discrimination will result in the permanent banishment of its author.

 

 

3. DISCLAIMER


 

The ESM is not responsible for any action, event, or behavior outside its environment. For example, the ESM can't be held responsible if a player breaks the Steam Workshop EULA or if a team breaks the Bohemia Interactive Monetisation EULA.

 

 

4. EXPLOITATION RIGHTS


 

Exploitation rights regarding official ESM events done within the ESM are the sole property of the ESM. This includes demos and/or broadcasting of matches but also the rights of audio or video feeds on the Internet. The ESM also is entitled to record broadcasted matches.

 

 

5. CASTERS AND COMMENTATORS


 

Casters and Commentators are exclusively selected by the ESM.
Teams competing in the official ESM events should provide a written agreement or refusal to have an official caster covering their matches in the tournament.
The Caster should respect a 5-minute delay on his stream. If not, the Caster will not be allowed to Cast for the duration of the tournament and the match will have to be replayed.

 

 

6. STREAM


 

Players are allowed to stream their standpoint (not as Spectator). It is recommended to have a 5-minute delay in the stream. The streaming player is fully responsible for any incident related to his stream (including Stream-sniping). The ESM will not consider any complaints related to a player's stream.

 

 

7. GAME USE


 

Every participant must use an original copy of the game, and it must be updated to the latest stable build version (not DEV, not RC).
Game modifications are only allowed for official modded versions of the ESM tournament maps.

 

 

8. CHEATS


  

Any form of Cheat, 3rd part software that gives you some advantage (crosshair, etc...), or exploits is prohibited.
Players with VAC/BANon their Steam profile since the release date of the game are not allowed to play in the ESM events.

 

 

9. COMPLAINS


 

Any accusation or report has to be made just after the match, on the same day, through the #-complaints Discord channel and has to be provided with visual evidence (video, screenshot, or server logs). An investigation will be performed by the ESM staff. Without evidence, the complaint will be dismissed without further due.

 

  

10. TRUTHFUL INFORMATION


 

Players (or their Team Manager by proxy) must provide verified information, to the best of their knowledge.

 

 

11. ADMISSION


 

The ESM reserves the right to refuse admission to any team and/or player.
Any team signing up for an event is expected to have listed the minimum or more players in their roaster, four weeks before the event.
The first two teams in the result of a Masters tournament are elevated (qualified) to Pro tournaments. Therefore, they can no longer register for a Masters tournament. If the minimum number of teams required to organize a Pro tournament is not met, the ESM can fill in the free slots by inviting teams of their own choosing.
The last two teams in the result of a Pro tournament are relegated to Masters tournaments. Therefore, they can no longer register for a Pro tournament unless invited as detailed above.
Players that participated in at least one round of a Pro tournament and are still qualified in this circuit are not allowed to participate in the next regular event. They will have to wait for the one after. This also applies if the player leaves his team, although it is still qualified in the Pro circuit. Teams that refuse to play in a Pro tournament and want to play in a regular event, will have to skip the next one.

 

 

12. EVENT CALENDAR


 

The date of an event can change up to one month prior if the scheduling required it.

 

 

13. COPYRIGHT


 

All Official ESM maps are the sole property of the ESM and are provided with a EULA.
All resources provided by the ESM are protected by copyright.

 

 

14. GOVERNING LAW & JURISDICTION


 

These Terms will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the European Union (EU). You submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Madrid (Spain) for the resolution of any disputes.

 

 

15. RULE VALIDITY


 

If one or more rules of this EULA are void, the validity of the other rules is not affected. The voided rule will be replaced by a rule that answers the expectations of all parties.
