Peanut's 3X Double-Elimination Singles Tournament
Basically, it is bracket-type tournament with each round being itself a double-elimination series. All 64 players will be grouped by 4 and the winner of each group will be the winner of the double-elimination round and move on to the following round in another group with 3 other winners. Note that elimination doesn't mean a loss in a single game but rather in a set of games against one opponent (i.e. best of 3). You can lose no more than one set of games per round.
The tournament winner will therefore have to win 3 consecutive 4-player double-elimination brackets.
Each player must choose a home map when they sign up.
For those unfamiliar with a double-elimination bracket, here is the format for 4 players (which we will be using).
How the tournament works
Round 1
64 players grouped in 4s randomly.
Double-elimination brackets for each group (see diagram above).
5 games at a time (2 on each home map, 1 on random map).
Match-up winner determined by best of 5.
Winner of the bracket moves on to the next round.
Round 2
16 players grouped in 4s by ranking (see below).
Double-elimination brackets for each group (see diagram above).
7 games at a time (3 on each home map, 1 on random map).
Match-up winner determined by best of 7.
Winner of the bracket moves on to the next round.
Round 3
4 finalists in the same group.
Double-elimination brackets (see diagram above).
9 games at a time (3 on each home map, 3 on random maps).
Match-up winner determined by best of 9.
Winner of the bracket claims victory in the tournament!
