- Accuracy of the information registered on the Square Enix account;
- In-game play status; and
- History of terms of service violations.
* Calculated by the Team's average Stars/Credit ranking for Season 12. If a player has not ranked in Season 12, their Season 11 or Season 10 rank may be considered for the team's average instead, in that order. In case of a tie, the Sponsor will reference combined scores from the past 3 seasons as a tiebreaker.
