      Map list for the tournament:
      We'll picked common ladder maps, 5x5 and 10x10. The lower rating will play 'simpler' maps, and elimination bracket plays smaller maps to speed up the play.

      With < 32 players for each bracket, there are 6 rounds for each bracket. We picked 6 maps for each bracket.

      The final match between the winners of the winner’s bracket and loser’s brackets will play a best-of-three with a 1 point advantage to the person playing from the winner’s bracket.
      All maps will be played with the 'usual' slot1 vs slot2. Please do not pick similar colors if possible.

      1000-1500 rating winner bracket:
      Frithen
      Eye of the Storm - FAF Version
      TAG_Craftious_Maximus

      Z-D Rasty Lite
      Forbidden Pass - FAF Version

      Cobalt Valley
      Palaneum
      The Ganges Chasma
      Hollow
      Regor VI Highlands

          There will be exactly 0 cross-section between the people playing LotS and playing this tourney. If insufficient people show up, it's always possible to move it into the next month.

            I can offer 1vs1 lessons as part of the prize for the winners of both brackets (1 for each winner, they usually last between 45 mins - 2 hours)

                  hello,
                  do you still have to comment here as a submission to register outside of the Google Form?

                    I think I need to play some more cancer maps again to meet the rating requirement ^^. But maybe we can get a couple of our clanmates to join.

                        With the map pool being based off ladder maps, will the 1800+ maps be excluded and if there was a U1000 division, would 1300-1800 maps also be excluded for this division?

                            We'll select 10x10 and 5x5 maps, with the focus on 'simpler' maps.

                                      Signing in, Ladder lower than 1500, global just above 1500 just recently so not really 1500 material.

                                            Congratulations to the winners, if you would like to redeem your prize in the form of my lesson make sure to contact me through FAF client, Forums or discord. If you don't want such lesson let me know and I will offer it to the player that managed to get the 2nd place. Huge thanks to Conorach for organizing the tournament and all the players that participated as well as Farms and other streamers that covered this event. I really hope that more tourneys like this will happen in the future where players of all ratings can try their skills at FAF's competitive scene.
