Winner decided by submission. In the event that no submission occurs it will go to EBI overtime rules.

EBI Overtime

If there is no submission after the regulation time limit, each competitor will have the chance to try to submit their opponent as fast as they can, while the other has a chance to escape. There will be a coin toss to determine which competitor will choose if they are starting on offense or defense.

If there is no submission after 3 rounds of EBI overtime then the quickest escape time will be declared the match winner.

Close outs

Competitors from the same team are welcome to enter the tournament, and as organizers, we will make every effort to avoid team members facing each other in early rounds where possible. However, please note that close-outs are strictly prohibited, as all matches including the final must be contested fully. This ensures fairness, upholds the integrity of the tournament, and provides a true reflection of skill and sportsmanship. With prize money on the line, we are committed to maintaining a competitive and transparent environment for all participants.
