#4 3:1 vs #5 3:1

Map Veto:

The map veto for both the Swiss Group Stage and Playoffs will use a pick/ban method using only 7 maps. Each stage will have their own map pool [see below for the maps]. In order to be fair with the different styles of the players, we will be separating the maps into 3 groups:

3 bhop maps
3 climb maps
1 unique map that includes nonstandard techniques.

In order to be even more fair, both the climb and the bhop maps will have the 3 standard difficulties:

- 1 easy bhop and climb map
- 1 average bhop and climb map
- 1 hard bhop and climb map

*As for the "unique" map - it will have an average difficulty.

Before the match starts, the administrators will use a plugin that will determinate randomly who is going to ban first. After that, with the help of a map veto plugin in the server, the following will occure:

First ban rotation:

1. Player1 bans first
2. Player2 bans second

Map picks:

3. Player1 picks first
4. Player2 picks second

Second ban rotation:

5. Player1 bans first
6. Player2 bans second

Decider:

7. After player2 decides his second ban, the last map will be used as a decider in case the result is 1:1

Schedule: Matches are played non-stop. First match starts at 15:00 CET, 5 minutes per each map, four days tournament.
