Welcome to Round 1 of Doubles World Cup! The structure of Round 1 is as follows:
Teams consist of eight starters and four substitutes. All games are best of one (bo1) and will be played in SV DOU. Replays are mandatory, as this tournament is a great opportunity for metagame development.
In the first round, players will be placed in groups of four wherein they'll battle all three of their opponents. Divisions have been assigned randomly, with each team playing each other three times.
In divisions, six points will be awarded for the pools winner, four points for second place, and two for third place. If there is a tie for any position, the total number of points between those two positions will be split equally among the tied parties. For example, a tie at first place will see the players split 10 points (6 for first + 4 for second), for a total of 5 points each.
Teams will be ranked on records before points. The four teams with the best record will qualify for the semifinals, with the first seed facing the fourth seed and the second seed facing the third seed. If two or more teams within the top four have identical records, points will be used to sort out the tiebreaks. However, if there is a tie in records for the last spot, points will be ignored and the teams will face off in a tiebreak series. The tiebreak will consist of three bo1s in SV DOU.
Substitutes:
There are four substitutes per roster. Once a player is substituted out, they cannot be substituted back in for the pools phase. This means if you substitute a player out of this phase, they are substituted out of all of their remaining pool games. They may return for playoffs rounds.
Important notice: Every player is expected to finish at least one game against their pools opponents in THE FIRST WEEK. This means we expect every player to complete at least ONE game by Sunday, the 11th of December.
Deadline: Sunday, December 18th, preferably around 10PM EST. Please don't finish your games too late; I'm not too strict but I'd rather not do too much work late at night.
