Welcome to the osu!catch World Cup 2020 Discussion Thread.
Here you can discuss everything related to this year's biggest worldwide osu!catch tournament.
Notable changes for this year (subject to change):
- The "comeback" ban mechanic from the previous instalment of the osu!catch World Cup has been removed. Each team will now be allowed only one ban at the start of the match. Pool sizes will be adjusted accordingly.
- After completing a beatmap, the team picking next will have a maximum of two minutes to decide their next pick. On the first instance of exceeding this time limit in a match, a warning will be issued to the offending team. On second and further instances in the match, the referee will choose at random one of the remaining eligible beatmaps from that round's mappool.
- Each team will receive a "tactical timeout" of two minutes, which can be used at any time during their team's pick, once per match. The tactical timeout is optional, and is not required to be used.
As always, we are also looking for commentators for this World Cup, so please contact either deadbeat or juankristal if you are interested.
