Leg 2 Rule changes are marked in green.

A brief Introduction to the MW3 League

The Do Gaming MW3 League uses the Round Robin format, meaning that each team will have the opportunity to play one match against every other team in their division for points.

Our point structure is designed to reward activity by awarding teams a point even if they lose the match. If a team does not play their match, they will receive no points. For a full point breakdown, please see the general rules.

In order to break ties we use a system called Round Difference. The system combines all the rounds your team have won over the course of the leg, and then minuses all the rounds your team have lost. In the event of a tie, the team with the greater round difference will be awarded the higher position. All teams are required to complete the full 24 rounds per match, even if a team has already secured the match win.
