Tournament Rules

AMATEUR & EXPERT CIRCUIT TOURNAMENT RULES

1. Create Your Account & Join the Tournament

All players must create an account and join tournaments directly through their account dashboard.

Tournament sign-ups open weekly. The Participate button will appear in your dashboard once registration is live. Based on your self-declared skill level, you will only see tournaments you are eligible to enter. For example, players registered as Expert will not be able to participate in Amateur tournaments.

Players are expected to declare their skill level accurately. If a player is found to have misrepresented their skill level, they may be reclassified into the appropriate division. Incorrect declarations may result in disqualification or ineligibility for prizes in affected tournaments.

Upcoming tournament dates and start times are listed in advance. The join link and password will become available one (1) hour before the tournament begins. Do not share the join link or password with anyone who is not registered, as this may result in disqualification.

Players who wish to participate in Pro tournaments may self-declare their skill level as Pro to access additional benefits (see below). Please note that once Pro status is selected, it is permanent and cannot be reversed.

2. Prize Eligibility & Verification

All players can play and compete; however, prizes are only given to $Clash holders. Prizes for the Top 10 finishers are displayed on the main tournament’s page and within the player’s account.

You must hold ≥ 2,000 $CLASH at two checkpoints:

  • Pre-Event Checkpoint: before the tournament begins

  • Post-Event Verification: within ~48 hours (sometimes longer) during moderator review

Wallets failing either checkpoint are ineligible for prizes.

Wins against non-registered players will not be counted toward standings to prevent cheating, manipulation, or win trading.

Bonus Multipliers:
Players may increase their placement prize based on their $CLASH holdings. To be eligible for bonus multipliers, a player must have competed in at least 3 tournaments.

  • Holding 20,000+ $CLASH doubles your placement prize (2×)

  • Holding 200,000+ $CLASH triples your placement prize (3×)

    Example:
    If the 6th-place prize is 0.3 SOL:

  • A player holding 20,000+ $CLASH receives 0.6 SOL (2×).

  • A player holding 200,000+ $CLASH receives 0.9 SOL (3×).

  • Bonuses apply only to placement rewards and only if both eligibility checkpoints are met.

3. Social Media Requirements

Top-10 Finishers — Post-Tournament Requirement

All Top-10 finishers in the Normal Circuit must complete a post-tournament social media submission within 24 hours.

➡️ Account → Tournament Tab → Social Media Submission

On X (Preferred):

  • Share something positive about your experience and invite others to join our tournaments using your Affiliate Link (inside your account).

  • Include a screenshot of the event or your placement

  • Tag @GeorgePlayClash and include $CLASH & #CLASHROYALE

If not using X:

  • Post a vertical recap video (IG/TikTok/YouTube Shorts) with a CTA to join our tournaments and post your Affiliate Link.

4. Auto Contribution for Returning Winners

Any player/wallet that has previously won a Top-10 prize owes a 250 $CLASH contribution for each new Top-10 prize. Handled automatically at payout.

First-time Top-10 winners are exempt.

5. Top-3 Repeat Cap (Cooldown)

If a player places in the Top 3, they are ineligible for Top-3 placement payout for the next two (2) Normal tournaments.

Any Top-3 finish during cooldown is paid as 4th place.

6. Disqualification & Prize Ineligibility

Win-trading, smurfing, collusion, harassment, or any unfair play results in DQ and prize loss. Play fair and support the community.

7. Integrity Bounty & Reporting

Confidentially DM a moderator with evidence of cheating, smurfing, or rule violations.
Verified reports that lead to sanctions may receive a bounty.

False or malicious reporting may result in penalties.

8. Winner Payout

Payouts are made in SOL to the wallet listed in your Account Settings. Payouts typically occur on Sunday after all verification steps are completed. Please ensure all requirements are submitted promptly.

9. Rule Changes & Organizer Discretion

Organizers may update rules at any time to maintain fairness and competitive integrity.
Participation implies acceptance of the latest posted rules.


PRO CIRCUIT TOURNAMENT RULES

Pro tournaments are a step up from Expert and Amateur. The competition is fiercer, but there are major advantages:

  • No “Top 3 repeat cap” rule — top players can keep placing and earning every week.

  • Smaller fields — typically, much fewer players, which can improve your odds compared to larger Amateur/Expert brackets. Keep in mind top 10 finishers all win prizes.

  • Ability to Remove Auto Contribution — with 10 completed referrals. More details are shared in your account.

  • Invitational path — only Pro players can qualify for our Pro Invitational, which features bigger prizes and more prestige.

1. Create Your Account & Join the Tournament

All players must create an account and join tournaments directly through their account dashboard.

Tournament sign-ups open weekly, and the Participate button will appear once registration is live.

Upcoming tournament dates and start times are listed in advance. The join link and password will become available one (1) hour before the tournament begins. Do not share the join link or password with anyone who is not registered, as this may result in disqualification.

2. Eligibility

The Pro Circuit is designed for Semi-Pro, Pro, and Ex-Pro players with extensive competitive experience in Clash Royale. While players self-declare their skill level, if you meet any of the criteria below, you are automatically required to compete in Pro tournaments. Any attempt to play in a lower skill-level tournament will result in a ban from all tournaments.

Semi-Pro Players

A Semi-Pro is defined as any player who has ever met one or more of the following criteria:

  • Reached Top 1,000 in Clash Royale Ultimate Champion (UC) Rank, and/or

  • Reached Top 1,000 in a Global Tournament, and/or

Ex-Pros are players who previously competed at a high level or earned prize money, but are not currently active in competitive circuits.

Examples include:

  • Former CRL players

  • Players who have previously won prize money in recognized tournaments

  • Players who competed in professional or semi-professional leagues in past seasons

If you have won money before or have played at a high competitive level, but are not active today, you qualify as Ex-Pro.

Organizer Rights & Rule Adjustments

The tournament organizers reserve the right to update or modify these rules at any time prior to the start of an event. The organizers may also refuse entry, disqualify any participant, or move a player into another circuit tournament based on skill level if deemed necessary for competitive integrity, fairness, or the overall benefit of the Clash project.
