Signup / Team setup:

This 3 vs 3 tourney is open to everyone, single signups only with captains pick system (highest rated players pick out of the other signed up players). Captain amount depends on sign ups, but a minimum of 6 and maximum of 8.
Lowest rated to highest rated captain for first AND second pick.

Tournament Format:

This 3v3 tournament will be a Double Elimination with BO3s for each round in the top bracket leading up to a BO5 in the final. Loser’s round will be BO1, except for Round 3 and 4. Teams consist of 3 players.
For every game the lower rated captain picks the first map (and then alternating) which cannot be used again. There are no Vetoes.

Rule update.

In order to provide more equal opportunities for both teams:

Map pick rules for Bo3 (and only Bo3)

"Lower rated captain picks first map, highest rated second map. After that the team who lost 2nd game choses 3rd map"
Map pick rules for Bo3 (and only Bo5):

For Bo5 the rule is still the same as before:

"For every game the lower rated captain picks the first map (and then alternating) which cannot be used again. There are no Vetoes"
