Hello and welcome to the first ever SylVus Open! This tournament is for players between the ranks of 50k - 90k. The matches will be played 1v1 from start to finish on Score v1.

Up to 64 player slots will be available for immediate entry (we also accept reserves, but no guarantees). These players will be randomly seeded before round 1 into a 1v1 match against another player. The matches will begin on May 20th and end on May 28th. The first few rounds will be single elimination, but the quarterfinals and onward will be double elimination. We will be using Score v1 for the entirety of the tournament. The mappool will be released on May 15th, giving players a week to prepare for their matches.

Match Info: Score v1, Head to head, 1v1 Round 1 will be randomly seeded. Players who make it to the quarterfinals will be randomly seeded again. Rounds 1 to 3 will be single elimination. Every subsequent round (quarterfinals onward) will be double elimination. Rounds 1 to 3 are best of 7. Quarterfinals and semifinals will be best of 9. The grand finals will be best of 11. Matches will be played during the weekends. Specifically on the 20th - 21st and 27th - 28th of May. Rounds 1 to 3 will take place from 10AM - 3PM PDT or 6PM -11PM BST, however later rounds will have more subjective scheduling. Players will be able to ban one map per match. At the start of the match, both players will !roll. The winner of the !roll gets to ban second and has their choice of if they want to pick the first or second map. The mappool will remain the same throughout the tournament and will be released on May 15th via Discord.

Rules: Players must be between ranks 50,000 and 90,000 to compete. No Higher, no lower. Your rank by May 8th is where we will consider your rank frozen. (Basically, if you’re below 90k by May 8th, you will be eligible to enter, however if you farm below 50k by May 8th, then you’re not allowed to compete. Ranking up or decaying after May 8th is acceptable and will not affect your entry into the tournament). We are accepting reserves, however we cannot guarantee that you'll be able to play. Having discord is a requirement as important information will be shared through it. Users without a discord account will not be able to enter. Your Discord username should be the same as or contain your osu! in-game name. Please notify tournament staff either before or immediately after a name change. Players should be online at least 15 minutes before their matches. If a player is not present after 10 minutes of their assigned start time, the match will be considered forfeit. Players who don’t show up to their assigned match without notifying the staff of a time conflict will be blacklisted from the next season of this tournament. Disconnects are unfortunate, but they happen. A disconnect will be treated as a map loss, unless the player who didn’t disconnect agrees to replay the map. If a player is disconnected for longer than 10 minutes, the match will be considered forfeit. Toxicity is not permitted. Cases will be judged individually by the staff, however in general, we will use a two-strike system (depending on the severity of the offense). Playful banter is perfectly acceptable, but outright flaming and harassment is not cool. During a match, the ref will always have the final say for anything that happens in a lobby.

The mappool will remain the same throughout the tournament and will be released on May 15th via Discord. 15 total maps:

6 nomod | 2 hidden | 2 hardrock | 2 doubletime | 2 freemod | 1 tiebreaker

Star difficulty approximately between 4.3* and 4.7* (Please note that star value isn't necessarily the most accurate way of measuring a maps difficulty. We will be aiming to make the maps comboable, but with high diffuculty.) Only ranked maps will be in the pool. Players must pick a mod (HD, HR, or HDHR) for a freemod map.

Any pool feedback is highly appreciated and should be DM’d to either Syltrix or UnNVus on Discord.

(Please note that the pool is not yet released.)
