The tournament will consist of a 3 round round-robin tournament with matches to be played anytime before the deadline described in the schedule. The top teams from each group will go on to a single elimination bracket to be played on 12/9 starting at 1PM ET.
Group stage matches will be played offstream and teams should schedule times to compete with one another. The default time for each round is listed with the deadlines and if teams cannot find an alternative time, the default time will be used. If a team fails to show up within 15 minutes of their scheduled match time, they will forfeit the match.
If during the group stage, both teams fail to complete their match and report by the deadline, each team will receive a forfeit towards their group stage score.
Teams making it to the finals should be prepared to play on 12/9 and 1PM ET - this bracket will be made immediately following the deadline of round 3 of matches. Finals will be broadcasted and must be played at the pre-scheduled times. Adjustments may be made by admins as necessary.
