There are many things you should do to make sure you are prepared before participating in the tournament. Read over
the list of things you will need for the tournament, and make sure you have everything. It is your responsibility to ensure
all of your equipment is in working order, that any necessary updates have been performed, and your internet connection
is steady and reliable before the event begins. Check everything carefully so you are ready to play.
You will need to register before the day of the event.
Make sure to register during the timeframe provided by the hosting OTS to ensure you can play in the event. If you do
not register before the end of the registration timeframe, you may not be able to enter the tournament when it begins.
In some cases, a Tournament Organiser may require that you create an account on their website, we recommend that
you reach out to the Tournament Organiser if you encounter any difficulties when trying to register on their site.
You will also need a CARD GAME ID number – this is the ID number used to track you in the tournament. If you don’t
already have one, event staff will be able to help you register for one. If a tournament staff member needs to reach out
about your registration, they will do so via Discord. Please watch your Discord notifications so you can respond to any
questions!
If you have a CARD GAME ID and have lost or forgotten it, you can ask the Tournament Organiser staff to look it up for
you. If you’ve played in a previous event, they may be able to retrieve your number. You may be able to reach out to staff
on the Tournament Organiser’s Discord server.
You will also need a Deck list. A Deck list is required to participate in the Remote Duel YCS tournament. You can submit
your Deck list on the Tournament Organiser’s Discord server following the instructions on their server.
Your Deck list must be completed so it can be submitted when registering for the Remote Duel YCS. Make sure you have
submitted your Deck list on the Discord server, and that it is complete and exactly matches your Deck before attempting
to register for the Remote Duel YCS.
Once a Deck list has been submitted it can no longer be changed.
Duelists are responsible for paying attention to information from judges and/or tournament staff in order to understand
what is going on. If Duelists have questions about the event either beforehand or while they are there, they should check
with the Event Staff in the relevant Discord channel of their assigned server.
