:four: LEAGUE FORMAT
- A clanwar consists of a series of best of one (Bo1) matches. The player winning a match is advancing to the next match also temporarily(during only one best of one match) vetoing one map, while the player losing a match is eliminated and cannot play again in the clanwar. The team of the player who lost his match decides which player from their lineup plays next against the winner of the last match and which map is to be played next. The maps must be picked from the remaining mappool. Each team can pick a map only once in a clanwar. The first map set by the league administration is considered to be “neutral”, which means that both teams can pick it again. The clanwar ends when 4 players of one clan are eliminated.
- Every team gets the possibility of using a 3 jokers per season. This means a team is able to revive a player in a running clanwar by eliminating another player that is still in the lineup.
- Each team will receive one point for a map win. If two teams end up with the same amount of points the individual match between those teams will come into account.
