Rules
Participation

- Five starters, plus up to two subs. The captain registers and pays on behalf of the team.
- You'll get a confirmation email that walks you through it: join the Discord, build your team on Challengermode, then finish your profile on Nemesis to get placed — all before your first fixture.
