We’re back this month with… MULTIPLE TOURNAMENTS! This month there will be a 1v1 tournament and a ZeroWars bracket, along with the ever popular B-class redemption bracket for 1v1s.
Tournament format as per usual will be Swiss into a Top/X cut, dependent on participants.

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.
