NOTE: Teams should be aware that the tournament schedule is tentative and teams should be prepared to play matches in a rush style back-to-back format. Reschedules will not be permitted.
As this is a 64 team double elimination bracket, only the first 64 “Ready” teams will be scheduled first round matches. Teams that forfeit their first round matches will be replaced in the bracket by teams on the waiting list on a first come, first served basis. To join the waiting list, teams must have 5 “Ready” players on the CEVO website, and have a team rep waiting in the “Waiting List” channel of our TeamSpeak 3 server (ts.cevo.com).
