U1100 1v1 Tournament V

Time & Date

13:00 UTC, 9th August 2025

Note: Signs-ups will close 24 hours before the tournament starts.

Format

If there are less than 8 participants, the tournament will be a Best-of-3 (BO3) Single Elimination followed by a BO3 in the grand finals.
If there are 8 or more participants; The format will have a group stage with a Best-of-2 (BO2) using the Swiss system, then a BO3 in the semis and grand finals.

Single Elimination

Single Elimination is a tournament format in which the players will play until someone has won 2 of the 3 games in each round.
The losing player is immediately eliminated from the tournament.

Swiss

Competitors meet one-on-one in each round and are paired using a set of rules designed to ensure that each competitor plays opponents with a similar running score, but does not play the same opponent more than once (across multiple rounds). Top 4 participants in the group stage will move on to the semifinals.

In the first round, competitors are paired with each other using their seed positions which are based off their 1v1 rating. In subsequent rounds, competitors are sorted according to their cumulative scores and are assigned opponents with the same or similar score up to that point. For example, if you won 2:0 against your opponent in Round 1, your opponent in Round 2 will likely be someone who also won 2:0 in Round 1. The intent of this system is to provide more even matchups for all participants regardless of their performance.

For each round in a BO2 system during the group stage: 2 wins against your opponent gives you 3 points, a win and a loss gives you 1 point, and losing both matches nets you 0 points.

The total number of rounds in the group stage is determined by the total number of participants:

Number of Participants	Number of Rounds
8	3
9-16	4 (5 if BO1)
17-32	5 (6 if BO1)

Note: To keep the tournament duration manageable, the BO2 Swiss format may be swapped to a BO1 Swiss format depending on total number of participants and their feedback

I'll let you know what the finalised format will be 48 hours before the tourney starts. I usually get a surge of sign-ups at the last minute so I'll have to accomodate for that. Also I need your 1v1 rating
