Ferrio, I just wanted to clarify, what is the tournament format? I assume it's a standard tree with single-elimination, so right now if we had 32 people, round 1 would have 16 matches (best of 3). Then, round 2 would have the remaining 16 players in 8 best of 3 matches. Round 3 would be 8 players and so forth?

It's in the op, but it's double elimination. If the participant list grows much more i may have to turn it to single elimn as the bracket might get out of hand. Luckily hearthstone matches are quick, even so I'm guessing the tourny will be going on for awhile.

Whoops, sorry, missed that line. Thanks for the clarification though!

Been testing decks all week. Trying to narrow down what's best. Getting nervous, now. haha.

I've been relying on Rags too much, I guess.

So, is it safe to assume anyone that runs a Warlock is using murlocs? Any of you that do so should feel dirty!.. . not that I blame you.

THE BRACKET IS UP, YOU MAY COMMENCE YOUR GAMESS

Remember to read all the rules on the first post in this thread, the inability to follow certain rules may result in a disqualification. Remember whatever class you pick for your first game is the one you must continue with for the rest of the tournament.

Seeding was randomized, so if you are already in round 2... well congrats you're a lucky SOB.

One day I realized that sadness is just another word for not enough coffee.
Where's the stream and commentary???

So when do these rounds take place? Is anyone verifying the results?

Looks like I got a first round bye.

As soon as you contact your opponent and play. Read the OP about the results, you're suppose to post the screenshots from the result screens and post them like this:



Just had my first match. Lost both pretty convincingly, bad draws and bad rng. 4/1 creature on the board and my mad bomber decides it's time to show mercy.

Here's the first game
