How it works
Bracket
We will be holding the tournament as a double elimination bracket. The bracket will be randomly seeded when check-in is completed.
Matches
The number of maps will be determined based on the number of teams remaining in the tournament.
Upper and Lower Brackets pre-Quarterfinals
Best of 1 map
Upper and Lower Brackets Quarterfinals onward
Best of 3 maps
Map Selection
Each team will trade banning map options until there are 2 remaining. Before the draft, a coin flip will determine which team picks from the last 2 map options. In best of 3 matches, the first map is a coin flip and then alternates from there. In the case that the chosen map is from the Convergence or Convoy set, the team not making the final pick chooses who will attack and defend.
All maps from the Convergence, Convoy and Domination set are in play and allowed to be chosen.
