NA only, 3 stocks, DSR, top 8 bo5. A DQ or ban can be given to anyone for being too slow to complete their matches.
We will be running this out of the mentoring discord! If you're not in there, you may be DQed at any time.

Low-mid level players only. Seeding is based on statistics if you've entered before, or guesswork if you haven't. Smurfs and/or secondaries from players who would be banned ordinarily are 100% prohibited.
Bans on winners from the old NAS will be inherited. If you have previously won a NAS, you MAY NOT ENTER. This rule will never be circumvented for anybody. If you've won an ACS (but not a NAS) and you're still low-mid level, you are fine to enter.
Rights are reserved for me or another TO to play you before, during, or after the tournament to see if you are actually low-mid. This will generally be applied if I've never heard of you or you're coming back from a break. Declining this challenge may result in DQ.
Connection issues will all need to be played out unless there is video proof of SERIOUS, HUGE ping spiking. After the tournament the TO staff may vet the people who had reported connections and potentially bar them from future events.
