NationsCup XV - Enemy Territory
Playoffs UB round 1
by: GoldoraK

With the thrilling conclusions of the Group Stages, the Nationscup is now moving on to the Play Offs! Over the weeks we have seen some epic games, as well as expected one sided games, all leading down to the final 16 Nations who had the skills, gameplay and the luck to go on. With the Playoffs, the danger of losing and falling out of the competition hasn't become any smaller. With the addition of a Double Elimantion there will even be more games

Playoffs matches - Part of rules
1. A playoff match is played at least on 2 maps. Both clans select a map from the map list before the start of the match and inform the cup admin at least 30 mins before the match is set to start. The admin will not announce maps until both teams have confirmed their choices with him/her. In case both teams have chosen the same map, the second map will be selected with the conventional method of map elimination, preceded by a cointoss. The admin will choose which map is played first.
2. One SW round will be played on each map.
3. The admin will choose which map is played first.
4. Each team will decide on which side to start on the map chosen by their opponent.
5. Round wins are added to determine the score: the team that wins a SW round receives 2 points; if both teams fail to set a time in a SW round, both teams will get 1 point. So possible scores after the two first maps are: 4-0 3-1 2-2.
6. In case the game is tied, an extra SW round is played on one of the remaining maps from the maplist. Teams take turns eliminating maps. The winner of the coinflip eliminates the first map, followed by the other team until one map is left to be played. When a map is selected, the team which didn't have final pick chooses who attacks first.
7. Clans are forbidden to chose the same map, previously selected in their two most recent playoff games.
