Welcome to Alpha Beta 26.

Tournament Set-Up

-- This will be a ten round, 32 player, 1 vs. 1 quasi double elimination bracket styled tournament. Please note that a minimum 98 percent turn percentage is required to be admitted into the tournament.

- Quasi double elimination means that final between the winner of the Alpha Bracket and the winner of the Beta Bracket will determine the champion. Therefore, the second place finalist may finish the tournament with one or two losses. All other non-winners finish with two losses.

-- All 32 players will begin in the Alpha Bracket. The opening bracket is determined via random.org.

-- The Alpha Bracket will use a different map each round (See listing below).

-- Win your Alpha Round and continue to compete in the Alpha Bracket.

-- Losers of each Alpha Round will be moved to the Beta Bracket.

-- The Beta Bracket used, will be the Istanbul map. If the Istanbul map gets quenched (is no longer officially Beta), it will still be considered Beta for the sake of this tournament.

-- Win a match in the Beta Bracket and advance to the next round. Lose a match in the Beta Bracket and you're eliminated.

-- The Alpha Beta Final will feature the Alpha Champion and Beta Champion.
