Here is the Tournament Plan
+ Show Spoiler +
3 weeks of round robin, 1 week finals.
Each week one clan will be versing another
For eg. Week 1: Team 1 v Team 2, Team 3 v Team 4
Week 2: Team 2 v Team 3, Team 1 v Team 4
Week 3: Team 2 v Team 4, Team 1 v Team 3
(This is just an example)
Each Team Match up will consist of 5 Best of 3 matches.
All 5 matches will be played
These will consist of Four 1v1 matches and One 2v2 matches.
The two teams with the most wins, after the 3 weeks of round robbins, will be in the finals.
The team with the most wins gets an advantage in the finals which will be they get to pick the first match up against their opponent.
The finals is a straight 5 game matchup. Four 1v1's, One 2v2. Each Best of 3s.
Each Best of 3's is worth $250
The team that wins the most of the 5 games will win an extra $1250
All 5 matches will be played, even if a team has 3-0 or 3-1 , the extra matches will be played just like in the first 3 weeks.
This will allow for the losing team to redeem themselves and try to make $250 per Best of 3.
This means the total prize pool that is on stake is a total of $2500 ($1250 + 5x$250)

FINALISTS
(warning spoiler)
+ Show Spoiler +
Congratulations to Mousesports and Fnatic.
Mousesports came first place in the round robbins with 13 wins
And Fnatic just edged out in front of EG with 6 wins for 2nd place.
So this means for the final showdown between Mousesports vs Fnatic, Mousesports gets to choose the first match up between players of both sides for the advantage they gained for scoring most wins in the round robbin.
All 5 matches of the best of 3s will be played.
The team that gets 3 or more wins, wins the whole tournament and will get $1250.
For each win each team secures they will get an extra $250.
This means that if a team were to be 3-0 or 3-1 they still have a chance to win a bit more money!
Gl hf to both teams!
