There have been several discussions over the last few weeks in relation to the setup of the KO phase. for various reasons I have changed it slightly from what it was before. 1vs16 2vs15 is too harsh in my view on the poorer players, and the tournaments are supposed to be a fun place, so I have, with the input of DerPate, come up with the following KO phase setup:
1 vs 9
16 vs 8
4 vs 12 <- previously 3 11
13 vs 5 <- previously 14 6
2 vs 10
15 vs 7
3 vs 11 <- previously 4 12
14 vs 6 <-previously 13 5
The Top players will still not face eachother until the semi finals, but this current setup was deemed slightly more fair for the higher ranked players ( as opposed to my previous setup ) while giving the lower ranked players a chance to win their first KO phase duel (as opposed to 1 vs 16 etc).
