This will be my first try to make a series of tournaments that will end with a Grand Finale. Hopefully I'll do everything okay! :$
The idea is the following: This will be the first of eight tournaments that will grant access to a final championship. Every single one will have different structure and maps.
Tournament Series
1 ) Road to the Cities League - Antarctica (Starting May/June 2014)
2 ) Road to the Cities League - Arctic
3 ) Road to the Cities League - North America
4 ) Road to the Cities League - South America
5 ) Road to the Cities League - Europe
6 ) Road to the Cities League - Asia
7 ) Road to the Cities League - Africa
8 ) Road to the Cities League - Oceania
The present tournament will completely be played in the Antarctica Map. I will not ask from the players to represent a city since there are no cities in Antarctica (or, at least, not a whole lot of them! :p) The winner of the tournament will represent the whole continent in the Grand Final.
Tournament Structure
Group Stage: The 16 players will be randomly seeded into four 4-player groups. Everybody plays everybody once within these groups. Win = 1 point; Loss = 0 points. Top two in each group advance to the Quarter Final.
Elimination Stage: Quarter Final, Semi Final and Final, one game, single elimination. Winner takes it all.
Tiebreaker
A playoff game will be made in the likely event of having to untie players after the group stage.
