If you walk down the streets of Copenhagen this week, you’ll notice that LAN is just right around the corner. This weekend, Team Fortress 2 is at the Copenhagen Games hosted by Esport United, with both a 6v6 and a Highlander tournament and a lot of Europeans fighting for glory.

Format

The 6v6 tournament is split into two parts: a round robin stage in where teams are seeded into groups of four, and stage 8 teams move onto double elimination playoffs bracket. During the group stages, matches will be played in Best-Of-Twos. Teams are awarded 2 points for wins, 1 point each for a draw, and 0 points for a loss.

In the double eliminations playoffs, matches are Best-Of-Threes. Should a Golden Cap occur, GCs are limited to 15 minutes. If no team caps all points and thus win the GC before the timelimit runs out, the team that hold the middle point at the time is awarded the win. Each match is limited to 30 minutes and win limit is set to 5 rounds.

stage 8 teams move onto double elimination playoffs bracket

that is a lot of stages
so the top two teams from every group move on?

also i find it super frustrating that tftv tends not to put essentials events on the calendar, ive got shit going on tomorrow that i could have rescheduled if i'd realized the lan was coming up :( i did just notice that the April monthly cup is on there though, good on ya

Should be top 4 from each group considering there's 3 rounds of upper bracket including UBF, right? For a total of 8 teams in double elim, i think

2^3 and all that, assuming i actually know math
