This 2v2 TDM Cup is different than the last. Only CPM physics are allowed as well as it is Single Elimination. First-round play is Best-of-1, where if you lose the first game you're out! Second-round and Semifinal play are in Best-of-3 games while the Final is a Best-of-5 format.
Teams will be seeded depending on player's skill. In order to start the match, the higher seeded team drops a map from the pool, then the lower seeded team drops a map. The lower seeded team then picks the first map to play. (NOTE: In first-round play both teams drop two maps since it is Best-of-1 format.)
