Welcome to the fifth edition of the Little Cup World Cup! It is once again time to unite with the rest of your region to prove you are the best at the smallest metagame!
How it works
Regions across the world will be putting together a team and facing off with each other over the course of several weeks in different Little Cup metagames. Captains will choose a set of a players who live in their general geographic region. If you are selected, you will be representing a region you either live in or have lived in recently to show that you are the best. If you aren’t selected, you’ll have the opportunity to cheer on your region and spectate a host of high-level LC matches!
Tournament Format
Every week, each team will be playing one other team in 8 matches. After each team has played every other team once, the playoffs phase will start, where top teams will play in a seeded elimination format.
Slots: SV LC / SV LC / SV LC / SWSH LC / SM LC / ORAS LC / BW LC / DPP LC (all best-of-one)
Eligibility Guidelines
Your primary eligibility is where you currently live (if you are at university abroad, for instance, you live there at the moment and this is your primary eligibility). Your secondary eligibility are any places you have lived for a significant amount of time in the last year. The regions and their boundaries have not been decided. For now, list the states/provinces/territories (US/Canada) or countries (others) for which you are eligible in your signup. IP addresses will be checked to confirm your residency. If you have questions or doubts, feel free to approach a host. If you have extenuating circumstances that you think should make you eligible for another region, please PM me with your reasoning. Do not necessarily expect these requests to be granted. WCoP eligibility rules will be used as the basis for eligibility decisions.

Captaincy
Players are free to indicate that they would be interested in captaining their respective regions. Captains ARE allowed to draft themselves and play. However, do not necessarily expect to be picked, as there are potentially many people interested in captaining each team.
The deadline to sign up is Saturday, October 12th
I hope to release regions in a week. Please sign up early!
