Hello and welcome to the Qualifier Tournament for the 2021 Spring Invitational. The winners of this tournament will fill up the 8 remaining slots in the group stage as well as determine substitutes. Players who have received invites are not eligible to participate (a list of invites can be found here).
This is going to be a 1v1 Double Elimination bracket with BO3 games in the winners bracket and BO1 games in the losers bracket. In the interest of time, the bracket will be seeded based on ladder rating with the 16 highest ladder ratings being able to participate. Each BO3 will consist of a 5x5, 10x10, and 20x20, played in that order.
To encourage participation of up and coming players, all players with 1500+ ladder rating will be given a slot in the tournament up to a max of 32 total players. If this causes there to be more than 16 players in the tournament, the 1st 2 rounds of the Winner's bracket will be BO1.
All standard tournament rules apply. In the event of a tie in position occurs (ie 7-8th) which is needed to determine whether a player will advance to the group stage, a BO1 will be played to determine who advances. Signups will close 15 minutes before the start time.
