Format

Before that - 4 Groups Round Robin Bo2 SSL Format
Ro16 - Group stage with GSL pick system (1st place from each group picks first)
Ro8 - Single Elimination Playoffs (No 3rd place)

For more information about the SSL Format, please click here.
Rules for home map system and tiebreaker scenarios are explained there.

+ [How to choose home map] +

Before you play against your opponent, have both of you to copy the name of your home map beforehand, so you can paste it when you need to. Both of you will count "1, 2, 3" in separate lines and immediately after 3, paste your home map and press enter.

If your home maps are the same, play the map twice with the first map being counted as home for the higher seeded player.

If your home maps are different, the higher seeded player will host their home map first.

Players will be added into Skype groups (similar to GPDL) to have easy access to their opponents and schedule their matches from there.

For casting, I'll only make playoffs compulsory to be casted. Ro16 MIGHT be casted but we'll see if people of the groups can make it on the same day. There's no way the round robin stage can be casted.

Dates will not be planned because I definitely forsee delay, but games will start a week after ladder reset so everyone has the chance to familiarise themselves with the new maps and pick a suitable home map for themselves!

+ [Extra gibberish on why] +

blahblahblah something about SEA players not getting enough OSC points, LET'S CHANGE THIS. One tournament at a time. haha jokes I'm only able to sponsor 1 at the moment. The $250 is gonna come from my inevitable participation bonus + pocket full of holes. Initially I wanted to pocket the money but I guess I'll just make people happy again xd

I have time now, and I want to put it to good use, so alright let's host a tournament. Money has been my issue hence partially why I've stopped noodle cups. now I have some, so ok yay.
