          Swiss Stage

          Now that we're past the qualifiers, I'm happy to announce the final 16:
          Invited:
          Tagada
          waffelznoob
          Lunyshko
          Nexus
          Rhaelya
          Blast_Chilled
          BlinChik
          Robogear

          Qualified:
          Grimplex
          TheWeakie
          Maomaoo
          Shen
          Turbo2
          ZLO
          Swatoslav
          Wifi_

          There are also a few other announcements I would like to make, so please take the time to read this:

          After getting feedback from the players, the Swiss Stage will last only 1 day (Saturday, 13th). However with time constraints if both players agree, they may play their remaining matches on the Sunday only IF it does not delay the other matches.

          The mappool will be released this evening.

          In terms of player cards, the Yow clan have kindly offered their help so that we get them again this year! They will hopefully be made by the time of the Swiss Stage, however not confirmed.

          I've had an idea that was inspired by osu! tournaments which is that for all of their tournaments, they use Google Sheets to display all the necessary information. The Swiss bracket that was intended simply does not function on challonge, so I decided to make it on sheets as well. It will be where the official bracket and relevant information to the Swiss Stage is located.

          https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1bKy9FmcSnja_9tnJFXBoLdgv8Db4FOajERDPh523GKM/edit?usp=sharing

          Please take the time to have a look at it and familiarise yourself with it, as it will be used for this weekend.

            Here is all the information regarding the mappool and vetos. There will be faction vetos this tournament.

            Hope you enjoy the pool!

              I enjoy the pool. At least 20x20 maps are almost as disrespected as 5x5 maps these days. Some of the 10x10 maps are fun and you only spelled two of their names wrong.

                            Mappool is now on the sheet. Please read all the veto rules as its now BO5 and BO7.

                            I will stream the matchup draw probably tomorrow morning on my own channel, just as proof that there's no biased seeding.
