The RtCW Alliance Cup - Update 4

Looking back at the first week where everything has gone pretty much as smoothly as we had hoped for, I think a big thank you is in place for the teams, the shoutcasters and my fellow admins for the efforts they have made to make this possible.

If you wish to rewatch the current standings in the groupstage you can do so by clicking here. Furthermore the format of the playoffs has been posted online. We also now have an official youtube channel. There you can rewatch the matches that have been played and casted before.
Playoff bracket will be drawn live on stream, as it has been done with the group stage.

!IMPORTANT!
As you may or may not have noticed there has been an alternation in the pointsystem during the group stage. This has been done because the previous system had the possibility of disadvantaging teams.

Current system: Winner: 2 POINTS // Draw: 1 POINT // Loser: 0 POINTS
If 2 teams have the same points at the end of the group stage their W/L ratio will be decisive for who gets through to the playoffs.

!Question!
The current system for the maps during the playoffs is "picking a map". After receiving some feedback from the community a lot of players seem to be afraid to see the same maps over and over again.

So, would you like to see map elimination?
Do you prefer a system where a team cannot pick the same map twice in a row? Or not being allowed to choose the map they chose 1 AND 2 wars ago?
Let us know in the comment section !

The admins wish the competing teams the best of luck. If you have any questions don't hesitiate to contact any of us

why does a Win: 3 points, Draw: 1 point and a Loss: 0 point, disavantage the teams ??
The previous system was 1 point / won round. If a team wins their 3 group matches with 1-0, they would have 3 points. Another team in the group might win 1 of their 3 matches with 4-0 and and loose their other 2 matches. This team would therefor have 4 points and be the winner of the group.

oh yeah I see, yes idd thats not great and not very professional, then, wp for these new rules ;)

and btw, u should have 3 points for 1 win, and 1 point for a draw, 0 for a loss, cause to win a match should be better than 2 draws.

gg anyway
map elim > picking maps
