Map Selection and Veto Process
B01 Rounds:
Top seed vetoes first. Alternate vetoes until one map remains. Bottom seed hosts.
B03 Rounds:
Top seed vetoes first. Alternate vetoes until map pool is 3. Top seed picks map, bottom seed hosts. After that, loser picks map and hosts.
B05 Rounds:
Top seed vetoes first. Alternate vetoes until map pool is 5. top seed picks 1st map from remaining 5, bottom seed hosts. After that, loser picks map and hosts.
(Make sure you agree on a matchtime via discord, so you have a written copy of the agreement. That way if one person doesn't show and the 72 hours runs up, you can tattle to the admins and probably get yourself a defwin)
Any issues please @Barren @floss2xdaily @Venhail @Lucker. . Special thanks to Freeman for the very very cool Gym Cup banner graphic.
Good luck and let’s see who is the strongest Gymizen of them all!
