3. After matches are played for that round, all teams will be dissolved, and players remaining in the tournament will be returned to their appropriate seeding pool.
4. Teams will then be reselected for the next round, and this cycle will reoccur until Semi Finals

Semi & Grand Finals

2. Winners finals will compete for 1st and 2nd place, while losers finals will compete for 3rd place.

Match Rules

1. Players will be invited their lobbies 10 minutes prior to commencement of the match. Teams will have a 5 minute grace period after the allotted match time to enter join the lobby before the match starts.
2. If a team is unable to field a playable team, the match will be forfeited. A playable team is defined as:
   At least 1 Upper Seed and at least 1 Lower Seed, or, 2 Lower Seeds.
3. If only the 2 Upper Seed players are able to play the match, the match will be forfeited.
4. Matches will be played as 2v2s.
5. Once lobby is full, captains will roll for highest number and will have one of two options as a result:
   Pick 1st and Ban 2nd, or, Ban 1st and Pick 2nd.
6. In the event a teams captain is unable to roll, the highest BWS ranked team member will roll instead.
7. After selections are made, teams may opt to select one warm-up map (no longer than 4:00)
8. Teams will have 2 minutes to select a map, and if no selection is made they will forfeit their map selection, and the next pick will be chosen by the other team. If this should occur, after the team has chosen their forfeit pick and it is played, the pick will then go back to the original team.
9. After map selection, teams will have 90 seconds to determine who will play and enter the lobby accordingly.
10. Teams must have one player from each seed pool in the lobby for each map pick. As such, matches should be played by 1 Upper Seed and 1 Lower Seed per team, or 2 Lower Seeds.
11. If all players aren't readied up within this period, the referee will start a 15 second timer, and players in the lobby at the time will play the map.

Hey Ethan sorry for the lack of info, we have updated the post to include a rough schedule, but we aim to open Player registrations on the 31/05/2019. Much thanks!

2v2 but teams of 4 and each team has 1 player from each seed. To me that seems like the 2 bottom seeded players in each team don't have to play ever and they can get free wins. You should make some sort of alteration to the rules so that the bottom 2 players of each team don't just get free wins.

Hey Seaweed, thank you for your comment. We have been considering the effects of using the previously listed system for the tournament and have also come to the decision that it was both inadequate and unfair. We have changed the team formation system and added new rules in the match rules to promote equity in players participation in matches. A wuick summary of the changes can be seen below:

1. Teams will now have 2 players per seed rather than one per seed, and the 4 seed pools have been reduced to 2.
2. Teams are only eligible to play the match with a minimum team presence of 1 Upper and 1 Lower seed player or 2 Lower seed players minimum. If both Upper seed players or not enough players to field a team are present at matchtime the round will be forfeit.
3. Maps can be played by, at most, one Upper seed in the team. This will be used to prevent the upper seeds carrying lower seeds, and lower seeds having participation in the matches.

We acknowledge the mistake we made in developing this tourney with our prior system, and I personally hold myself accountable for the mistake due to my own inexperience. We hope that the amendments we have made will both improve the tournament experience for both players, staff and the community overall. Much Thanks!

Hello everyone and thank you for your patience. Player registrations are now open! Please feel free to register using the link in the post or the one provided below. Much Thanks!

Hello everyone quick update, as we approach closing date for player registrations we will be closing registrations at midnight AEST (UTC +10), and will be streaming the team draws for the first round shortly after. Furthermore, if we have more than 64 players applying to compete in this tournament, we will be taking the highest 64 BWS ranked players to compete. Thank you, Baz.
