SECTION 01

Age Limit & Underage Payment Liability Disclaimer (Under 18 Policy)

CRITICAL LEGAL NOTICE

Strict Age & Payment Disclaimer: Minors under 18 years old are not permitted to execute payments or participate in prize entries without explicit guardian authorization.

  • ZERO LIABILITY DISCLAIMER: SyncX Esports and its owners/operators hold ZERO financial, legal, or administrative liability or responsibility for unauthorized payments or transactions initiated by minors under 18 years of age.
  • GUARDIAN RESPONSIBILITY: Parents or legal guardians are solely responsible for supervising minors' device access, bank cards, and UPI payment apps (GPay, PhonePe, Paytm, BHIM).
  • UNAUTHORIZED TRANSACTION POLICY: Any minor attempting unauthorized transactions or using third-party UPI details without owner authorization will face immediate permanent account termination and prize forfeiture.
SECTION 02

Account Integrity & Player Verification

Mandatory
  • Every participant must be registered with a verified SyncX account authenticated via Discord or Google.
  • Your exact In-Game Name (IGN) and Character ID (UID) provided during registration MUST match your lobby profile 100%. Spelled-differently or altered names are disqualified immediately.
  • Strictly one account per player. Creating multiple SyncX profiles to exploit free entries or bypass bans will result in an immediate permaban across all accounts.
  • Players must be at least Level 30 in BGMI/Free Fire and Level 20 in Valorant to participate in official prize pool tournaments.
  • Team roster changes must be submitted at least 30 minutes before match scheduled start time. Maximum of 2 sub-players per roster.
SECTION 03

Anti-Cheat, Hardware & Fair Play Enforcement

Zero Tolerance
  • Zero tolerance policy for any software modifications, wallhacks, auto-aim, recoil macros, speed hacks, or modified APKs/clients.
  • PC Emulators (BlueStacks, LDPlayer, Nox, Gameloop) are strictly BANNED in BGMI and Free Fire tournaments unless explicitly tagged as an 'Emulator Exhibition' event.
  • Riot Vanguard Anti-Cheat must remain active throughout all Valorant matches. Disabling Vanguard during a live match results in match forfeit.
  • Players using third-party crosshair overlays, FOV changers, or network throttling tools will face immediate disqualification and prize forfeiture.
  • SyncX admins reserve the right to request live screen recordings or POV streams from suspect players before distributing prize payouts.
SECTION 04

Lobby Etiquette, Slot Discipline & Room Credentials

Strict Conduct
  • Room ID and Password are disclosed in your SyncX Dashboard 15 minutes before the match start time.
  • Room credentials are STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL. Sharing credentials with unregistered players leads to team disqualification and blacklisting.
  • Players must join their exact assigned slot (e.g. Team Alpha in Slot #1, Team Bravo in Slot #2). Players sitting in incorrect slots will be kicked without warning.
  • Lobbies will start strictly on time. A maximum 5-minute grace period is allowed for technical delays. Unready teams will forfeit their slot.
  • Teaming with enemy squads or sharing enemy location callouts in global chat will result in an immediate permanent ban for all involved teams.
