All matches will be played 6v6 as a best-of-three (bo3) series. The team listed as the HOME team will pick the first map, the team listed as the AWAY team will pick the second map, and the third map (if needed) will be pre-determined by CEVO and listed on each match page. Teams must select their map choices before the match begins from the maps listed above and are not allowed to select the pre-determined tiebreaker map as one of their choices.

A match is considered complete when one team wins two, out of a possible three maps. All matches must be played using the "Clan Match" system inside of the game and teams should be sure to take a screenshot of the scoreboard at the end of each map as a method of verifying the correct score. As in the case of a dispute, only screenshot evidence will be accepted.

Match Check-In System
All players must visit the official Ubisoft Ghost Recon Phantoms Event Home Page prior to the start of each match and use the check-in feature at the top of the website. To check-in, players should log into the CEVO website and press the "Check-In" button in the toolbar.  After check-in, a match lobby will open for communication with your opponent. Checking in to the website before your match is required for all players before every match.  Players who do not check-in will not be able to report their match results on the website, and may be issued a forfeit loss.
