Organizer guide - Unity League: Cyberpunk

Events can be assigned as follows:

Event	Event type
Weekly events, Night City Brawls and Prereleases
Night City Showdowns
Dedicated store events and conventions
Night City District Opens
Edgerunner Open Regionals
Black Sapphire Invitational Championships

Any deviation from these assignments requires prior approval. Please contact us before assigning a different event type.

For a Top 8 league Final, we recommend the following structure:

• Single elimination playoff with 3 rounds.
• Each match is best of 3.
• Players are paired randomly right before the event starts.
• Untimed rounds.
• The higher ranked player on the league leaderboard chooses who plays first.

For smaller Leagues averaging fewer than 8 players per event, we recommend a Top 4 Final instead, with 2 single elimination rounds.

Organizers may also choose a different structure for their league Finals. Edit the Finals event description to announce your chosen format.

Finals invitations are offered in leaderboard order. Players must have a registered Unity League account to be eligible. If a player declines the invitation or is not registered, it passes down to the next eligible player on the leaderboard.

No. Stores, clubs, associations, and independent organizers can all participate.

Events need to be public, played with Cyberpunk TCG cards, and held in real life.

We send a combined invoice by email every few months. Organizers pay it by bank transfer or PayPal.

Unpaid invoices may also be shown as a reminder when you log in.

We recommend a separate organizer profile for each entity that regularly runs events, such as a local game store.

This keeps each store's events, leagues, and billing separate.

If you occasionally run events at different venues, those events can usually stay under the same organizer profile.

Participating events can be run in any Cyberpunk format, including formats that are not officially supported.

If your format is not listed on our website, please let us know and we will add it.

Eligible events are public, real-life tournaments played with physical Cyberpunk TCG cards.

Players must be able to participate directly or qualify through a public process.

To award points, events must meet these requirements:

• The event must be publicly advertised.
• The event must be held in real life, not online.
• At least 4 players must participate and play at least one round.
• The full standings should be reported.

You can always run events as events if you only want the default multiplier.

If you are unsure whether an event is eligible, please contact us.

These are the maximum preliminary (Swiss) rounds we allow:

Events with fewer than 4 players are not allowed and cannot be reported.

Preliminary rounds may use Swiss, round-robin, group-stage, or another format, as long as the total does not exceed the maximum above.

Running a top cut requires at least 9 players. We generally expect a single elimination Top 4 or Top 8. Exceptional formats such as double elimination may be allowed in specific cases.

We use several methods to keep the league fair:

• Players use the same identifier on Unity League: Cyberpunk that they use in tournaments, so communities can verify who attends events.
• Our fraud detection checks events and results for suspicious patterns.
• We review suspicious cases manually and may ban players or organizations that try to manipulate the league.

Unity League: Cyberpunk is operated by Mana Grid GmbH and led by passionate founders Jari Rentsch and Dae-Jin Rhee. It started as a community project in Switzerland and grew from the idea that local events are more exciting when every result can be part of something bigger.

The league only works because organizers, players, and local communities keep showing up.
