Captains Draft
This tournament will have a captains draft, in which the 8 highest rated players will choose 3 players to participate on their team. If you have been selected as a captain, please make sure we are able to reach out to you on discord.
The draft will take place on the 11th of July, 16 UTC onwards. It will take place in the #SetonsSummerSlam2 channel on the Official FAF Discord in the Tournaments section.
I would prefer to do it in one go and if captains would like to arrange a call date so that we could potentially stream the draft that would be great, I will contact all of the captains to see if this is possible once they have been selected.
Captains may pick any player, and no player is able to reject being drafted. If the player does not wish to play with who they have been drafted with, they will withdraw from the tournament.
The draft format will be determined once the signups have closed.
Format
A simple double elimination bracket, with all the games being BO1 until the Grand Final.

Rules
The official FAF Tournament Rules apply.
Some of the most important of these rules are:- Disconnects within 5 minutes may result in a rehost. The Tournament Director has the last say afterwards.
- Players will replay the same map if they draw.
- If the incorrect map is hosted, the correct map will be hosted and the incorrect map will not count towards the score
- Players who do not appear without valid reasoning will be given a warning that may result in being temporarily suspended from tournaments.
- If a player does not show up in Round 1, they may be replaced. For all subsequent rounds, it will be treated as a forfeit and they will be eliminated and not replaced.
- All participants will be allowed a 15-minute wait at the start of a tournament to show up however after this 15 minute wait the Tournament Direct has the right to disqualify you from the tournament. In the case where you will be late but do intend to arrive you need to message the Tournament Director preferably via Discord to inform them you will be late but will show up. When doing this please provide an approximate time delay until you arrive, it will then be the Tournament Directors decision whether than delay is too long or acceptable. If your team loses a member, you may find a substitution within the rank requirements.
- The Tournament Director's decision is final.
- A "substitute" is a person who replaces a member of a team participating in a team tournament. The substitute may only replace a single person, and the replaced member is considered withdrawn from the tournament.
- A person may only participate as a substitute in case they were/are not already an active participant of the tournament - either organizer, participating player, a substitute, or a replaced player.
- The replaced player, relinquishes any and all prize eligibility to the substitute but only once the substitute has won at least 1 series.
- Please make sure all lobbies are passworded and inform your opponents the password and casters if applicable.
