Structure

The structure of the tournament will be simple. Swiss will be in a BO1 format with a 30-minute round limit. In the case that there is a top cut, rounds will be 30 minutes in a BO1 single-elimination format. Grand Finals (Top 2-4 Participants) will be in a BO3 format with no time limit. Grand Finals are simply the final round(s) of the top cut. The number of swiss rounds and top cut will be determined by the number of entries.

In order to maintain a fair and competitive environment, ties will result in zero points. This is to deter participants from declaring an intentional draw to proceed further into the event. Therefore; Wins = 1 Point , Ties = 0 Points, and Losses = 0 Points. Top cut eligibility will be determined off on the number of points a participant has earned at the conclusion of swiss.

-9-16 Participants = 4 Rounds of Swiss (BO1), Top cut of 4 (BO1), Grand finals
