Tournament Info
The tournament will be in a double elimination format, meaning that your team needs to lose twice in order to be eliminated from the tournament.
The tournament bracket can be found here. I also created a mock tournament complete with scores here, so that you can see how the bracket and matching up works out.
Please keep your subs on hand and ready to play, as each match will be a best of 3.
The prize will be 1 month of donor status, courtesy of CaliSnipe which is 1 month of donor status for each member of the winning team.
MAP-POOL: de_dust2, de_cplstrike, de_cache, de_season, de_nuke, de_inferno, de_tuscan

The rest of the matches have yet to have dates set as the upcoming week is Thanksgiving week and this tournament will spill over onto weekdays. What will most likely happen is that there will only be 2 matches a day starting Monday and at a later time.
If you have a time conflict, team captains contact me via pm and contact the team you are matched up against so we can arrange a different match time.
TOURNAMENT RULES
Etiquette
You must behave professionally during the tournament since it's meant to be serious. No whining about registry, p90, teammates, strategy, cheating, etc or starting flame wars/arguments during matches. No forfeiting or ragequitting matches either. Even if it's 15-0, you're expected to finish every match.
Strategy
Your team captain is considered your IGL (ingame leader) unless they delegate this responsibility to someone else. You MUST follow their strategies and play spots/sites they tell you even if you disagree. Team captains should repeat their strategies a few times or ask whether anyone is unclear of where they are playing/doing during freezetime until their teammates acknowledge they understand what they are expected to do that round.
Pauses
Each player on a team can pause the match once for 60 seconds. Pauses can be extended by having a teammate or opponent use their pause. Do not use !pause unless you need to use it (strategy, emergency bathroom, internet drop, etc). In general, it's better to take bathroom breaks during half time than using !pause. Pauses take place during freezetime or the next round's freezetime.
Gameplay
Typical league rules are also in effect. This means certain gameplay isn't permitted, such as:
- certain spots (de_train, de_tuscan, etc). The boosts on de_inferno are fine.
- crouch spamming (standing and ducking repeatedly and rapidly on bomb or gun fights).
- illegal defuses (you must have clear line of sight. obviously excluding barrels/teammates/flashes/smokes)
Failure to abide by these rules will result in bans from future War-Lords events in addition to an in-game ban.
Thanks to the past tournament organizers as it really helped me with organizing this!
Good luck to all teams!
