Best of 1 in the Round of 64 winners and LB Round of 32A. Tournament then becomes a best of 3 from the round of 32 winners and LB Round of 32B.
In a Best of 1, Best of 3 and Best of 5 a map veto (removal and pick) system is used. The high seeded player(seeds can be found at round 1 on the grid page) decides who is A and who is B. Player A gets first veto AND First map pick. Player B goes second on both. Players take it in turn removing maps until only one remains in a best of 1 or until only 3 maps remain in a best of 3. Then each player picks a map. Maps are played in order they are picked. The remaining map is played last.
