Setting Up the Match

PlayVS Match Assistant

In the PlayVS Match assistant:

  1. Both Teams Ready Up using the PlayVS match assistant.

  2. Both teams will click My Team is Ready and the server will start to be set up by the platform.

    • Server set up should take 3-5 minutes, if it takes longer than 5 minutes contact PlayVS Support.

  3. The Server IP will be listed and teams will be designated a color for them to join in-game.

    • If players choose the wrong teams, using Reset teams on the PlayVS match assistant will clear players from their team color.
