Introduction

Nomod Knockout is a unique tournament, because the maps are random. Ranked maps only, picked using RNG, which get progressively harder (higher star ranges) throughout the tournament. Mods will not be permitted.

This is a 1v1 tournament for osu! Standard.
No country restrictions.
Top 256 ranked entries will be selected.
Your rank at entry deadline decides seeding and selection.
Players MUST join the discord channel before the entry deadline

Rules

Single elimination.
Head to head.
Score v1.
Seeded by rank.
If a player does not arrive 5 minutes after their scheduled time, they will recieve a loss.
Warm-ups will only be played on the second weekend, and must be no longer than 4 minutes.
Any disconnects during a map will count as a loss (to the referee's discretion).
Map wins are decided first by whether the player is passing at the end, and then by highest score.

Maps

Only nomod maps.
Ranked Maps only.
All maps will be randomed by hosts.
Players won't know what maps they're playing until their match starts.
Tiebreakers will be half a star higher than the rest of the map pool.
Both players will be allowed 1 'skip' for every match.
If a map is skipped, the map is not played and it does not count towards the score.
A map skip will not reduce the total number of maps played in the match. There will be replacement maps lined up.
If both players choose to skip a map, the first one to ask the referee will use their skip.
Tie-breakers cannot be skipped.
