      Mini Legend of the Stars #2


      alt text

      NOTE: THIS IS THE LAST EVENT TO ACCUMULATE POINTS FOR THE YEAR-END LEGEND OF THE STARS TOURNAMENT

      The Mini Legend of the Stars is a new concept which adds to the mix of events that grant points for entry to the year's end Legend of the Stars event.

      Event registration is open to ALL players, but priority will be given to higher ladder ratings.

      Tournament Date:

      November 6th 14:00 UTC

      Challonge: https://challonge.com/ywuvq601
      IRC: #MiniLots

      Event LiveCasting:

      The event will be casted by Tagada & Morax

      Link: https://www.twitch.tv/faflive

      Prize Donations

      This event is not covered in the FAF official budget and will rely on donors to receive funding.

      Interested in Donating?
      Contact myself (Morax) on the Forums/Discord/FAF Client.

      Tournament Structure:

      The tournament structure is going to be Single-Elimination with the following:

      Round 1: 8 matchups in BO1
      Round 2: 4 matchups in BO1
      Round 3: 2 matchups in BO3
      Bronze Match: BO3
      Final Round: BO3

      Matchups will be seeded (using ladder rating) to streamline elimination of lower seeds.

      Maps Selection & Faction Veto:

      This tournament will have **NO faction veto **.

      The event will have a 15 map pool; however, the BO1 rounds will have a map selected by the TD. The BO3 rounds WILL have a map veto.

      For the BO1 rounds, a single map will be selected that all players play.
      For the BO3 rounds, maps will be decided by the map veto process.

      Map Veto Process

      In order to select the maps played for each BO3, the two participants in each stage will discuss amongst themselves which maps they would like to veto. Each player will be given the right to 3 vetoes and the bottom player in the bracket will be given the first veto. Each player will also submit vetoes sequentially. Once the list is down to 9 maps, the players will be given the right to pick which of the nine they wish to play. The bottom seed will be given the right to pick the first map and the top seed will pick the second.

      In the case of a tie, the players will veto down to a single map with the bottom seed once again having the first veto.
