Highlander Season 6 powered by Tt eSports: Rule Updates and Prizes

Rule Updates

The usage of the pl_upward glitch where an engineer builds up the dropdown is now considered as an exploit and will be treated the same as any other map exploit. Here is a video to show exactly what is meant.

1.10.7 Penalties during Premiership Playoffs and Tiebreakers

Specific Minor and Major Warnings now result in a cut of any prize money in that specific competition. A Minor Warning results in 10% of any cash prize won being docked. A Major Warning results in 30% being docked. Please note admin discretion is applied to every single case related to penalties in the Premiership Playoffs. Only specific Minor and Major Warnings are applied to this rule, they include but are not limited to:

• Flaming (Minor and Major)
• No results after deadline
• Using an unapproved merc
• Using an unlisted player
• Violation of the Class Limits
• Nickname rule violation
• Fraud Attempt
• Using a banned player
• Cheating
• Scheduling Violation
• Missing, wrong, or incomplete status screenshot

As a special rule, forfeiting or not showing up to a match in the Premiership Playoffs is punishable by 50% of any cash prize being docked.

The way in which Default Dates work in Playoffs has been changed. This rule now applies to all playoff and tiebreaker matches:

All teams must submit 3 available days for a playoff match at least 2 days before the start of the match week (i.e. before Friday 23:59). If the days submitted by both teams overlap, the default date is issued to one of the overlapping days based on admin discretion. If the days submitted by teams do not overlap, the default date is issued to the day not submitted by either team.

The number of Wildcards available in a season has been changed, as they were mostly not being used for their intended purpose.

Every team can use one wildcard in a season.
