Champion of the Small Maps
Champion Series
Congratulations to the Tournament Winner - Triple6
A 1 v 1, 16-player tournament for premiums.
Players must select a 'home' small map from the options in the banner.
Feel free to suggest any other small maps for the TO to consider.
Tournament Format
Spoiler
Each round is a 4-player group stage. Within each group, all players play one another on each others' 'home' map and on Doodle Earth.
The top two players from each group progress. Players are compared, firstly, on number of best-of-3 (or 5) matches won, then number of games won (where it had been best-of-five then the first 3 games will only count as one game).
In the case of two players having equal number of wins then there will be a one-off tie-break (on Doodle Earth) to determine who progresses (except in the final where there will be a 3-game play-off on each others' 'home' map and on Doodle Earth).
If more than 2 players have equal number of wins then all concerned players will play each other in a round robin on Doodle Earth (if this does not produce a winner then the player with most number of troops at the end of games will progress). If more than 2 players have equal number of wins in the final then the round robin will involve players playing each other on each others' 'home' map and on Doodle Earth (the round robin is repeated until a winner is determined).
In the first and second phases, if both qualifying players have equal wins, then the (almost irrelevant) group winner will be dtermined by the winner of the match between the two players.

Where fog of war is present, the competitor who goes first in round 1 must either wait 10 hours before taking their turn, or inform their opponent(s) in game chat of any regions conquered during their first move, and who from.
