Exciting! Is everyone in person for this tournament?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

Yep it will be in-person, first major in-person tournament we've had in a couple months?

I'm in USA timezone so hoping the usual YouTube crew posts some good games from this tournament!

Playoffs are starting in 10 hours from this comment! (This is a 1 hour later start than the previous days)

They actually changed the format so that the semifinals and on are double elimination, but if you lose in the quarterfinals then you're out of the tournament (sorry Spirit)

8 player bracket
Quarterfinals are single-elimination.
Semifinals onwards are double elimination.
All matches are Bo5 with a potential Bo3 reset match for the finals.

Seems like quarterfinals will be 2 streams again, but after that it will be just the main stream
