Changes:

1v1 Global Cup: The format will be Single Elimination starting top 8, with final being 3 bo5s of sv 1v1.

1v1 Swiss: We've rebranded 1v1 Majors to 1v1 Swiss! First few rounds will be swiss into top cut. Logistics behind that will be communicated after knowing the number of signups.

1v1 Classic: Instead of starting two cups in one week, there will be only 1 cup signup per week. Logistics behind points will be communicated at a later date, however there's going to be a change in the system.

1v1 LT: Playoffs format is supposed to be Swiss Top Cut mirroring Champs and 1v1 Swiss instead of Double Elimination.

As a reminder, VPNs remain banned, and Permabanned users are barred from joining team discords.

Any other change such as PL and WC slots will be communicated via the Tournament Policy Thread. If you have any suggestion or comment feel free to either post in the tournament policy thread, or in the 1v1 Discord, or DM me or Arai.

We hope this circuit will be a fun and competitive one!
