tired of the usual bland pooling meta? having trouble getting aim and tapping abused?
no worries !!
the goal of this tournament is to showcase many fun, good-quality, challenging, and potentially lesser known maps with awesome songs
while also pertaining to a bunch of gimmicky-er and lesser seen skillsets in tournament pools (that you can view below), all mostly light on mechanical skillsets like aim and tapping.
(THIS DOESN'T MEAN YOU WON'T SEE A LITTLE BIT OF MECHANICS LATER ON IN THE HR AND DT POOLS!!!)
grab a friend and enjoy!
- osu!standard, ScoreV2, Head to Head, 1v1 Teams of 2 PLAYERS and 2 PLAYERS only
- The top 32 teams in qualifiers will advance to the bracket stage
- Only players with a rank in between #350 ~ #35,000 are allowed to participate, however
- Your rank will be calculated with a BWS formula: rank^(0.9937^(badges*(badges+1)/2)) (if you don't know what BWS is, ignore this line)
*In addition pending badges will NOT be counted
- GFX Arists, Commentators and Streamers are allowed to play in the tournament, every other role is not permitted, however
- Eliminated players may be added after their elimination as referees, and replayers
- 1v1 Format, Teams of 2, however
- There are some restrictions on how many/little maps each player on a team may play, notably:
In Qualifiers, each player must play AT LEAST 2 maps
In RO32/RO16, each player may not win more than 4 maps
In QF/SF, each player may not win more than 4 maps
In Finals/GF, each player may not win more than 5 maps
(ALL THESE RULES INCLUDE TB!!)All players must join the discord server!

NM - follows HD OPTIONAL rules: NM, allowed, optional HD.
FM - follows FREEMOD rules: NM allowed, optional HD, HR/HDHR. HDHR gets a 0.95x multiplier
FO - follows FORCEMOD rules: A selected mod or mod combination will be listed and all players are required to use those exact mods (will be in a note on sheet?)
HR - optional HD, but will have a countering multiplier (0.95x)
DT - optional HD and EZ. HD will have a countering multiplier (0.95x). EZ will have a custom multiplier (adjusted for each map)
TB - follows FREEMOD rules: NM allowed, optional HD, HR/HDHR.
What you can expect in these specific pools:
This tournament is different from usual "gimmick tournaments" where people will build off a modern pooling structure with gimmickier maps in individual slots, rather here we just try to display as many gimmick skillsets as we can while also keeping the maps up to standard. There will be no real “slotting” in pools, so you wont see the usual meta for slots, however each modpool will try to test certain skillsets, as you see below:
NM - will always be a pattern processing map, with "reading" elements.
FM - lower ARs, control (finger and aim), technical/sliders, precision, and later on maybe other things
) (ex. 2b/aspire, dumbshitpost)
FO - whatever can be made up from the FM pool, or whatever it is missing.
HR - higher approach rate/tough to react to maps. Precision/aim outlet.
DT - higher density gimmick maps. Tapping/tapping control outlet.
TB - a map trying to feature most skillsets shown above

TB - a map trying to feature most skillsets shown above
- Referees will invite team captains to their qualifier lobby
- Maps will be played in order shown on the sheet
- In case of a player disconnecting, they are allowed to play the map(s) they disconnected on at the end of the lobby
- Teams will be seeded by their qualifiers performance based on their Sum of Placement on every map
- Referees will invite both team captains to their match lobby
- If both players on a team are not in contact with the referee somehow (through the lobby, discord, other means. etc.) after 15 minutes, the opposing team gets a Win By Default.
- Both teams may choose 1 map to warm-up, however the map length may not be longer than 5 minutes
- Both captains will !roll, and the winner of the roll will choose one of two options for pick/ban order:
- First Pick + Second Ban
- Second Pick + First Ban
- There are no restrictions to what each team may pick/ban from the pool
- An !mp timer 120 will be placed during each team's ban and pick phase
If a team purposefully stalls pick timers, a warning may be given by a referee, but if it happens multiple times a referee may give the pick to the enemy team
Leniency on this rule may be at the discretion of the referee
- If a player disconnects in the first 30 seconds of the map, an !mp abort may be issued
Other disconnection issues may be at the discretion of the referee.
