Week 3 Fixtures are now live! Week 3 scheduling was a hybrid of Swiss Ranking + SR. 

Reminders to team leaders:

• Maplist: Each week teams will have 3 maps to pick from to play each week.
  • Home Team picks the first map and whether they want to Attack or Defend first.
  • Away Team picks the second map, alternate who attacks first.
  • If either map ends in a draw, a single overtime round on Lijang Tower will be played to decide who won the map.
  • If the scores are tied 1-1 after the first 2 maps, then proceed to the remaining map from the weekly pool.
    • Example Week 1 match:
      - Home team chooses Blizzard World and wins the map, they receive 1 match point.
      - Away team chooses Anubis and the map draws with both teams unable to cap the first point. Teams proceed to Lijang Tower to break the draw on Anubis and Away team wins earning 1 match point. Now scores are tied 1-1.
      - Match proceeds to Ilios where Home team wins earning another match point. Home team wins the match 2-1.
• MATCH COMMS MATCH COMMS MATCH COMMS!!! You guys are slacking a bit in this department. Papa Snow is having to get involved and remind a lot of teams to post!
  • Team Leaders are REQUIRED to use Match Comms every week! You should use them to coordinate the date/time to play the match and any possible unrostered players needed for the match. Forfeit match results will not be accepted if Match Comms were not used! Failure to use Match Comms may also result in an unfavorable outcome for your team in the event that a dispute arises from your match! For more information on how to use Match Comms please check out the #using-match-comms room in our Discord. 
    • Team Leaders can access the Match Comms from 2 locations:
      a.) While logged in as a Team Leader: by clicking on Match List > View Match Details from your Team Leader Homepage.
      b.) While logged in as a Player: by clicking on the yellow "Match Details" button on your Player Homepage.
• Reporting Scores: Scores must be reported by the winning team via Match Comms. Make sure to check out the #reporting-scores room in Discord for more information if you're having trouble.
