Premier teams can play two matches each week on the Weekly map, which resets on Tuesday and can be viewed on the schedule in the Premier Hub.
Individual players can only play two Weekly matches each week, so if you switch teams after playing two matches, you won't be able to play with your new team until the following week.
Weekly Match Format
Weekly matches are in Best of 1 battles. Each team gets two timeouts that can be used at any time.
Overtime Rules
If you go into overtime, each team gets an additional timeout and you play under a special set of rules:
- The first team to win 12 rounds gains overtime priority, which means they can choose their starting side with a simple majority vote among their teammates.
- Teams then swap sides every round.
- Teams must win by 2.
- If Overtime continues for 3 sets, the match enters one final round of Sudden Death, where starting sides are the same as the beginning of overtime.
Can I play both of my Weekly matches in one day?
If you queue up early in the window, finish your match, and the queue window for your zone hasn't closed yet, you can queue up again. (Note: Queuing up near the end of a window may result in not being able to find a match.)
- If you play two matches during a Weekly match window on a map, you won't be able to play in the other match window(s) on that same map. (Ex. If you play two matches on Thursday on Bind, you won't be able to play on Saturday. The Weekly match window resets on Tuesday.)
Practice Matches
Practice matches are offered over a one-hour practice window on certain days when Weekly matches are not live. These matches don't count towards your team/player Weekly match limit, don't affect your Premier Score, and don't impact your division seeding, but they otherwise follow the same structure as regular matches. Overtime rules will be win-by-2 (up to 3 sets of Overtime), then Sudden Death. Timeouts are available and each team has two timeouts that can be used at any time as well as one timeout in Overtime, just like a regular Premier match.
