Event Format

The tournament will be played as an FFA (Free For All) event in teams of two - 2vs2vs2vs2.

Groups will be formed. Each group consists of 8 participants (4 teams). The top 2 teams from each group proceed to the next round. If there is only enough participants to form 1 group, finals will be played immediately.
In case of a lack of players to form a full second group (more than 8 but less than 16 participants), then the referee will make a decision on how to proceed (whether some teams get free wins or groups with less than 8 people are formed) at their own discretion.

Each round (semifinals, finals) consists of 7 matches. All 7 matches will be played and the team with the most points wins the round.
Point distribution is explained down below.

Awards

This event will be treated as an event sponsored by GameReplays for the purposes of Awards. The two medals we will be handing out are the Tournament Winners Medal and the Tournament Participation Medal. To gain the Tournament Winners Medal, you just have to win a tournament.
