Maybe the 1v1s can be three different group of random selections:
Group 1: Random pack consisting of CBA, RCB, CBA Hero
Group 2: Random pack consisting of AB, Smosh, vets
Group 3: Random pack consisting of Khans, Gwarz, germs
All 3 1v1s happen at the same time. You know the limited maps that can occur in each group. You can strategically pick your player. You know what to practice. It consists both of a random element, but with a limited selection. And you keep like-maps grouped together to better cater to the players. (those are obviously just example maps/groupings).

I like this idea. But no germs, please no germs, please nooo.
The maps would need to be more closely aligned in 'skillsets' too, AB would be CB-like.

I also think this is a good idea, but it's worth replacing germs as barry said 11 maybe replace germs with rad or something alike?

Solid idea for sure... but still prefer the pick home picks with a random decider for the 3rd map.
Ok guys as we can see from this thread it was quite split with regards 1v1 being either 3 random or 1 home pick each and 1 random.
Today i have spoken to several outside of the opinions mentioned here (and all are involved in the tournament) to try and get a majority on how to press forward. I can confirm that the majority want 1 home pick each and 1 random. I understand all the views made and yes me personally i wouldve liked to see more random involved however and as always i am going with the majority. So it will be 1 home pick each and 1 random game

I like this a lot more than 1 home 1 away...Keeps players who only know how to play one map from being more valuable than a versatile player, but also allows less randomness (Cba/RCB player stuck with a blood), which will keep people happy.
Guys i have no clue about the various mods available or how they work or what mods should be used for certain maps or what is even common practice. I am a bit wary delving into something i know nothing about. What opinons do people have on what mods should be used for certain maps like for example the rcb mod. I dont want this becoming an issue so if there is no common agreement there wont be mods involved.
It might just be a case in certain maps that if both are happy we use the mod if not we dont
With that said we dont know what maps will even be available

Both groups (2 groups of 4 teams selected by random draw probably done as last time)
All teams maps & the final map list completed & All rules/settings put out for us.
Will MQ be allowed or not in tournie?
