Player Name:mekuchikatoFormat of tour: The first round will be round robin pools round: each player in their pool plays all others in the same pool, and each win and loss (the whole series, not individual games) is added to their team's total score. The teams who get the most series wins across all of these pools will go into a 4 team playoffs where the #1 seed plays the #4 seed and the winner of that plays the winner of the #2 and #3 seed. Any ties that meaningfully effect seeding will be resolved with a tiebreaker week.

To sign up for this tournament, reply to this thread and use this format:Eligibility Requirements (from the WCOP of 2019)
Eligibility requirements are listed below. If you have any specific questions about eligibility, please contact the a host (Arai or Heika)
Players who participated in 1v1 WC VI
If a player participated in 1v1 WC VI, they will be locked onto their team from the previous year, barring the following exceptions:
Players who did not participate in 1v1 WC VI / players eligible for new teams
- If the team they most recently played for no longer exists, they will be treated as a player eligible for a new team (see below).
- If a player's region has changed since last WC, they may choose to instead play for the region currently associated with their forum IPs. This is a one-time choice; doing so forfeits their previous eligibility. They will not be able to be grandfathered back onto their previous team in the future, and even if they return to their old region in the future, this eligibility will remain forfeited.
Players that are not locked on a team and are not eligible for grandfathering (new players or players whose previous teams no longer exist) may only play for the regions associated with their forum IPs. Tournament directors will not consider any other means of identification for regional eligibility. Please do not submit real-world identifying documents such as passports or birth certificates. Don't doxx yourself. Please.
If a player has IPs to prove that they spend extended periods of time in multiple regions within the past 12 months (e.g. students who attend university in one region and live in another), they can apply to join the team associated with either region. TDs will review this on a case-by-case basis. Eligibility for the rejected team will be forfeited.
Players with significant periods of provable residency prior to the past 12 months may apply to join the team associated with their old IPs. The TD team will consider these applications on a case-by-case basis, but as a general rule, the minimum amount of time we will consider is one year of residency in the old region. As referenced above, you MUST be able to verify said residency via forum IPs; if your IPs do not reflect this prior residency, your application will not be accepted. Eligibility for the rejected team will be forfeited.
Players eligible for multiple regions that span the same area (like India and Asia) may choose which region to play for. You may only play for one region. Grandfathering and region lock as explained above applies.
"Cultural eligibility" rules were removed in earlier editions of 1v1 WC, and have not been reinstated.
As a reminder, hosts and TDs reserve the right to reject any player they deem to be insufficiently eligible. An example of this would be a player whose IP drastically changes shortly before the start of the tournament.
