Servers will be decided based on what are local to the players. If available, a server where players have as close to equal ping as possible should be chosen. If that server is not available, a cointoss (callvote random 2h/t) will decide which player gets the 'home' server.
Players will be expected to play on and know the following maps.
  • [map=cpm3a q3a]
  • [map=cpm15 q3a]
  • [map=cpm22 q3a]
  • [map=cpm24 q3a]
  • [map=pukka3tourney2 q3a]

Map will be decided by cointoss (separate from region toss), loser can ban a map, winner then chooses map.
Participation: To participate in this tournament, players are expect to register via google forms, and are required to join the CPMA Discord server.

Map Selection: Flip a coin (callvote random 2h/t). Map will be decided by cointoss (separate from region toss) at the beginning of the first match, loser can ban a map, winner then chooses map.

The process will appear as follows: Coin toss, +ban(loser), +pick (winner). +ban(match 1 winner), +pick(match 1 winner),etc...
