Brawl Stars HYPERCHARGE CHALLENGE – Official Guidelines and Rules

The Brawl Stars HYPERCHARGE CHALLENGE (the “Challenge”) is subject to these Official Guidelines and Rules (“Guidelines and Rules”), which are binding on matters relating to the Challenge unless specifically stated otherwise. Entering the Challenge is free, and no purchases are necessary to enter or to win. The Challenge is organized by Supercell Oy (the “Supercell”). The Challenge is not sponsored, endorsed, or administered by TikTok or any other social media platform.

Who Can Enter?

Except as otherwise specified in this section, the Challenge is open worldwide to anyone aged 13 years or older residing in a country where Brawl Stars is available for download and play through Supercell’s official channels (“Entrant”). If an Entrant is under 18 years of age or the age of majority as defined in such Entrant’s country of residence (a “Minor”), such Entrant must have permission from a parent or legal guardian to participate in the Challenge.

How to Enter?

The Challenge only accepts submissions posted TikTok. Eligible Entrants (as defined below) can enter the Challenge by creating a video showing what Hypercharges the Entrants during their time in or outside of the game (“Submission”) and posting it on TikTok using the hashtags #brawlstars and #hypercharge.

The Submission must be tagged with both tags and made publicly visible and searchable before the end of the Challenge Period (as defined below).
In case you do not have a TikTok account, establishing an account is free. All TikTok terms (as applicable) apply. Your TikTok account must be set to “public” for your Submission to be seen by Supercell, but you can return your accounts to “private” any time after the end of the Challenge Period.

When is the Challenge Period?

The Challenge period begins on September 2, 2023 at 00:00 AM Easten European Summer Time (“EEST”) and ends on September 15, 2023 at 11:59 PM EEST (the “Challenge Period”). Submissions must be received during the Challenge Period to be eligible to win. By participating, each Entrant (and, if an eligible Minor, such Entrant’s parent or legal guardian) agrees to be bound by these Guidelines and Rules and the decisions of the judges and/or Supercell.

How Are the Winners Chosen and What Are the Prizes?

At the end of the Challenge Period, Supercell will pick ten (10) Submissions, at its sole discretion, and the winners will receive all Hypercharge Collector’s Bundles available in Brawl Stars at the time of the Challenge (each a “Hypercharge Prize”). In addition, the Entrant with the Submission with the most total views on TikTok will receive a Hypercharge Prize and a trip to Brawl Stars World Finals 2023 in Sweden for the Entrant and a guest (the “Special Prize”). The trip will include flights, hotel accommodation (single room), and event tickets for the Entrant and a guest. If the Entrant with the most total views is a Minor, such Entrant’s parent or legal guardian must be the other attendee. Upon formal notification from Supercell, the winners shall have seventy-two (72) hours from the date such notice was sent to respond and provide any information or materials requested by Supercell.
For the avoidance of doubt, neither the Hypercharge Prize nor the Special Prize can be exchanged for substitute prizes or cash. In the event a winner cannot be reached or cannot or will not accept or receive the prize for any reason, Supercell reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to select an alternate winner from the remaining Submissions.

What Can and Cannot Be In the Submissions?

• Submissions must include original content only, created by the person who submits the entry. Entrants may not copy or otherwise plagiarize Submissions from any source, no may Submissions include third-party copyrighted material or artwork without the copyright holder’s permission. By entering, each Entrant (and, if an eligible Minor, such Entrant’s parent or legal guardian) warrants that such Entrant’s Submission does not infringe any third party’s rights, and that such Entrant has obtained any such necessary rights.
  

• The Supercell shall have the authority to disqualify a Submission if they believe, at its sole discretion, that it potentially infringes on copyright or might do so in the future.
  

• Submissions should not contain personal attacks directed at anyone.

  companies, products, or services related to the above, or any other offensive or obscene subject matter as determined in Supercell’s
  sole discretion. Submissions must adhere to Supercell’s Fan Content Policy.

  violates these Guidelines and Rules, and to delete or otherwise remove any such Submission from any and all location(s) under Supercell’s control.

Any attempt to deliberately damage or undermine the legitimate operation of the Challenge may be in violation of criminal and civil laws and will result in disqualification from participation in the Challenge. Should such an attempt be made, Supercell reserves the right to seek remedies and damages to the fullest extent of the law.

If any part of these Guidelines and Rules is found to be invalid or unenforceable, it shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision. If a rule is considered invalid or unenforceable, these Guidelines and Rules shall otherwise remain in effect. Supercell’s failure to enforce a particular term shall not constitute a waiver of that term.
