Two tournaments in one month?
Qrow must really be bored.
Lobster Roll: New Beginnings MONTH FOUR (AND A HALF)
Last tournament seemed to be in a strange spot schedule wise, and recently the timing hasn’t been working out for our EU guys, so I figured we’d hold another one this month. Anyone from anywhere is still welcome to participate per usual, regardless of what time zone the tournament is focused towards.
Tournament format as per usual will be decided based on number of participants:
1-5 Round Robin
6-7 Swiss into Top 2 Playoff
8+ Swiss into Top X following format below:
8-15 Participants Top 4
15-63 Participants Top 8
63+ Participants Top 16
There will be a B-class redemption bracket if you did not make the cutoff.

For those who are new:
-
Maps are striked in a banning process from a map pool (winner of !flip is player 1 for purposes of striking), and then the player who wins a !flip if game 1, or loser of the previous game if games 2 or 3, picks a map from the remaining (unstriked) stages.
The order goes (Map pools now contain 9 maps):
p1-p2-p1-p2-p1-p2, p1 pick - for game one.
Games after game one - the winner of the previous game bans three maps from the pool, and then the loser picks a map from the remaining options.
Map pool will be released prior to the tournament starting.

Hope to see everyone out participating!
