After the first bracket stage round, a random player from a team will be swapped with another team’s random player.
Amount of maps per mod pool will not be a set number, instead it will be random.
Unlike last iteration, there will be no upper star rating limit when rolling the maps.

All players will register as solo.
The tournament will not be badged, however the BWS system will still be used. BWS formula - rank^(0.9937^(badges^2))

All subsequent stages will take place in the following weekends

All maps will be played with Scorev2 and NF enforced.
Players will be invited to their respective lobbies ~5 minutes before the match. If a team doesn’t have at least 3 players ready 10 minutes after match start, it will count as a noshow and automatic forfeit.
Players may choose to warm up if they like. The maximum length for warmups is 4:00.
After warmups, players will !roll. The roll winner may choose between first ban and second pick OR second ban and first pick.
Players have 90 seconds per ban, 90 seconds per pick, and 90 seconds after each pick to ready up. If a player does not ban/pick after 90 seconds, their ban/pick will be skipped. If a player is not ready after 90 seconds, the referee may force start with !mp start 15.
With the exception of NM, players may not pick or ban twice in a row from the same mod pool.
In the event of a disconnection, common sense will be applied. If a player disconnects less than 30 seconds into the map, the map will be replayed. If a player experiences technical issues less than 30 seconds into the map, they may ask for an abort. Requests for aborts more than 30 seconds into the map will be ignored. If a player disconnects more than 30 seconds into the map, the point goes to the other player unless there is unambiguous evidence that the disconnected player would have won.
If teams get the same score on a map, the map will be replayed.
At least 2 unique mods are required from each team for freemod maps. There will be no special multiplier for EZ or FL.
The tiebreaker is freemod but you are not required to pick any mod.
