Rules and format
How to join
There are no forms and no sign-up in advance. The cup is announced in the Twitch chat and whoever is there at that moment gets in.
That is the only requirement: be there when it's announced that it's about to start. Latecomers wait on the bench, and from the bench you can still get in — but not for free anymore, only through the redemptions below.
The modes
Each cup is played in one of these five formats. The mode is announced when it opens.
Copa Perso
The classic format. Teams are drawn live and everyone plays one of the roles they registered.
Copa Tryhard
Master+ get priority. Same format as the Perso, but no mercy.
Copa Random
Random champions, and the role is also drawn from the ones each player registered.
Copa Análisis
Played like the Perso, and afterwards the game is reviewed play by play.
Copa ARAM AFK
ARAM: one lane and one life per player. Roles don't matter here, so teams can end up uneven and that's fine.
The Tournament
Besides the cups, there is a separate tournament with its own rules. You sign up on your own at /torneo and the site forms teams of five, one per role, as even in rank as possible. There is a round-robin group stage and then playoffs up to the final.
It is free and there are no bits, redemptions or negotiation in it: nobody can pay to get in, switch teams or remove anyone. At least 20 sign-ups are needed to start.
The winning team gets 100 USD, split equally among its five players (20 USD each). The organizer pays it out of pocket: it doesn't come from sign-ups (there is no fee) or from bits or donations made during the tournament. There are no bets of any kind.
The negotiation phase
Before each game a negotiation phase opens with the timer running. While it lasts, both players and viewers can redeem bits or subs for rewards that change the teams and the players.
| Reward | Bits |
|---|---|
 Slot: take the place of someone already picked | 200 |
 Team swap | 150 |
 Pull someone off the bench | 200 |
 Role change and re-entry | 300 |
 Bring back from the graveyard | 300 |
 Blue Shell | 500 |
 OTP OPEN: someone's champion can't be banned | 500 |
A redemption does nothing on its own: it is logged and the host applies it at the table. Prices can go up to triple during a game; when it ends they go back to normal, so each game starts its negotiation with the prices in this table.
The Blue Shell
The most expensive redemption punishes one player. The wheel has four outcomes and all four are equally likely:
No FlashPlays the game without the Flash summoner spell.
Double or nothingPlays at ×2: if they lose, −30 LP; if their team wins, +30 LP.
Random championGets a random champion.
Forced buildHas to build whatever they are told.
Scoring
Everyone starts the month with 100 LP. Each game adds or subtracts depending on what happens in it:
| What happened | LP |
|---|---|
 Win the game | +15 |
 Lose it | −15 |
 Game MVP | +5 |
 Game ACE | +10 |
 Play off-role | +2 |
| Blue Shell ×2 if your team wins | +30 |
| Blue Shell ×2 if your team loses | −30 |
Every month starts from zero. Last month's roster stays as it ended and nobody carries points over: whoever comes back starts again with 100.
The rules change from time to time. Check the patch notes to see what changed and when.
