Points (PTS) – Primary Criterion
• Higher total points = better ranking
• Example: If multiple teams have 3 points → move to criterion #2
Direct Encounter (Head-to-Head) – Secondary Criterion
• If two tied teams played each other, the winner ranks higher
• Only valid if they actually faced each other
• If not, skip to criterion #3
OPP% (Opponents' Win Percentage) – Tertiary Criterion
• Reflects strength of opponents faced
• Higher OPP% = tougher schedule = better ranking
King of the Hill rewards strong objective control, smart rotations, and coordinated team play.
Hold the zone → gain tickets → win rounds → win matches.
Your feedback continues to be vital in improving King of the Hill and our tournament format.

All registrations take place through the tournament system, where it is not a problem to create a team and insert your teammates into it (their usernamens on this website). They will then receive an invitation and as soon as they confirm their participation, you can register to the tournament.
Before the tournament, it is mandatory to confirm participation (checked-in) in the tournament system, via the button in header of this tournament! In practice, this means that the captains of the playing teams must confirm their participation in the tournament here on the website just before the tournament. Those who do not do so in time will be replaced by a substitute team.
We reserve the right to change any of the above rules, even during any tournament.
The admin of each competition has the right to change/modify any rule as well as the decision to grant an exception in a specific, precisely defined case. All cases not specified here are handled individually by the admin. Please note that some rules cannot be applied to all types of tournaments.
