Update: FINAL ROUND HAS BEEN PAIRED! Good luck to all!





Rules:





- 16 players, 5 rounds of swiss. Matches will be bo3, base + 8 with 60sec time control. Top 4 players will advance to the semifinals.





- Players will have 3 days to play and report each round. You can report to me in-game, or use your Challonge account to report the results here. If two players somehow fail to play their match within 3 days, it will count as a draw.





- Please feel free to stream your own matches, or if you and your opponent both want your match to be streamed, let me or one of the other Twitch streamers know so we can observe and commentate. You can also play off stream, it's totally up to you.





- Semifinals and finals will be streamed live based on player schedules (aiming for Dec 13th). bo5 for semis, bo7 for finals, still base + 8 with 60sec time control.





- Top 8 players will receive automatic invites to the next Scorchilla Cup, while the remaining 8 slots will be decided by ladder results and community feedback.





TIEBREAK RULES:





I announced this already, but there is some confusion. Tiebreaks are set as follows:





1. Head to head score (only in the case of exactly 2 tied players)

2. Total game w/l differential

3. Strength of opponents (Median-Buccholz)





This is how the tournament is set in Challonge, but Challonge isn't displaying it correctly, hence the confusion. It is possible that the final standings in Challonge may be inaccurate.
