As you may or may not now, the Playoffs (Knockout Stages) will be done using a bracket system. This basically means you have to lose 2 games in order to be completely knocked out the competition. BUT you should still aim to not lose since you will get an advantage when it comes to the grand final. Look at the playoff tree for more detail, the rest should be self-explanatory.

Map System
Teams are allowed to pick the maps just like in the group stages BUT REMEMBER the maplist starts again so you can pick a map you have used in the group stages (only once though since you cannot pick the same map twice)
Extra Information
- Play all rounds still, incase of any glitching / bug incidents
- In the case of a tie, elimination will come into effect if the score is tied at the end of the game. Each clan will eliminate 1 map each in turn until a final map is left which will be played first to 11. Please take note of the order of the last few maps since if the game was to be tied again after a third map, teams will have to play the last map to be eliminated from beforehand. If tied again, play the second last eliminated map and so on. Maps that have been played during the match are automatically eliminated.
- REMEMBER, If you lose once, you are still in the competition! You will enter the lower bracket with an opportunity to still win the cup. 2 losses = elimination
- For the GRAND FINAL, If LB winners get upto 21 first, a third map will be played through elimination from a map list where first to 11 win the cup! If UB winners get upto 21 first or ties 20-20, there is no need for a third map an they will be the cup winners!
