The Tournament is in bo3 (best of 3) mode. This basically means that the first person to win 2 maps wins the match. Each round, each player picks a map of their choice to play on. In the event of the match being 1-1 after the 2 maps are played the players must play on the map the ESL picks for each playday. An example of this is below:-

PlayerA: Picks de_dust and wins map
PlayerB: Picks de_aztec and wins map
ESL Playday map: de_dust2

This results in a 1-1 scoreline going into the third and final map which is pre-chosen by the ESL.

If PlayerA wins both their own chosen map and their opponents map there is no need to play the ESL Chosen map. Below is a list of the ESL Map for each round of the LANPirates 1v1 Cup.

Round1: de_dust
Round2: de_aztec
Round3: de_dust2
Round4: de_inferno
Round5: de_nuke
Round6: de_train
Round7: de_aztec

Remember! You MUST take screenshots of the scoreboard at the end of each half and also record POV Demos for each map incase of any Cheat Accusations. Failure to make demos available when asked will lead to disqualification from the Tournament.

You have been warned!
