The chosen map will be selected at random from the current available Domination maps. To do this, the lobby owner must complete the following steps:<\/span><\/p>\n\n- Navigate to the map selection > <\/span>Competitive <\/b>tab.<\/span><\/li>\n
- Ensure <\/span>Multi-Select<\/b> is checked.<\/span><\/li>\n
- Activate all Domination maps which include the following:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
\n- Hell\u2019s Heaven<\/span><\/li>\n
- Royal Palace<\/span><\/li>\n
- Birnin T\u2019Challa<\/span><\/li>\n
- Krakoa\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
- Celestial Husk<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/ul>\n
Selecting maps will outline them with a yellow border and checkmark.<\/span><\/i><\/span><\/p>\n\n- Start the game and one of the domination maps will be chosen at random.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/p>\n Skins and Customizations<\/b><\/h4>\nTeams must adhere to the following rules regarding character skins and customizations:<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Character Skins\/Cosmetics<\/b><\/h4>\n\n- All characters must be set to their default skins before the start of each match.<\/span><\/li>\n
- Alternate character skins or cosmetic variations are prohibited.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Initials Warnings<\/b><\/h4>\n\n- The first time any player from a team accidentally uses a character with a skin equipped, the entire team will receive a warning.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
- Teams are allowed to request a restart if a skin was accidentally selected.<\/span><\/li>\n
- Requesting a restart must take place before a game of record is established to not receive a warning.<\/span><\/li>\n
\n- If a restart was requested before establishing a game of record, teams should back out and restart the game.<\/span><\/li>\n
- The restarted game must be played on the same map with the same hero bans\/locks as the original game.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/ul>\n
Matches played out to completion with skins will be counted as a game of record. The ban\/lock phase must be completed before a team requests a restart for an accidental skin selection. The ban\/lock phase should not be interrupted to address a skin violation.<\/span><\/span><\/i><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Repeat Violations<\/b><\/h4>\n\n- Each team can restart 1 time per match without penalty.<\/span><\/li>\n
- If a team needs to restart a game more than 1 time due to an accidental skin selection, the offending team will be issued a game loss.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/p>\n Player Equipment<\/b><\/h2>\n<\/b><\/span><\/h4>\nEquipment<\/b><\/span><\/h4>\nEach player on the starting roster must have access to school-provided equipment or must be permitted by the school to provide their own equipment in the following categories:<\/span><\/p>\n\n- PC, PS5, PS4, or Xbox X|S<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

Consoles and Ximming<\/b><\/span><\/h4>\nXimming is a term used to describe the usage of mouse and keyboard on consoles without detection through the help of a XIM device. This enables console players to use prohibited devices instead of a controller to gain a competitive advantage.<\/span><\/p>\nThe use of this in Marvel Rivals is strictly prohibited and bannable as per NetEase. Any players found to be ximming will be subject to penalties by PlayVS officials.<\/span><\/i><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Match Process<\/b><\/h2>\n<\/b><\/h4>\n<\/b><\/h4>\nMatch Days<\/b><\/h4>\n<\/span><\/h4>\nEvery Monday or Tuesday, starting on October 20 and ending on November 18.
