Contenders bracket

6 teams.
One more shot.

The teams that missed the top two of their group, seeded at random into a single-elimination bracket, best of 5. Lose and you are out; the semi-final losers play for third. One round per week — the first round is due by 9 November 2026. Log in with Discord to report your team's results.

How the seeding was drawn

Nobody here chose it. RANDOM.ORG shuffled the 6 contenders, signed the result, and tied it to a ticket that was published before the draw and can only ever be used once.

  • Serial number#3RANDOM.ORG numbers every result on our key in order. #1 is the group draw, #2 the voided seeding below — every number is accounted for, so there is no gap where a thrown-away attempt could hide.
  • Voidedserial #2 · 5e586615c142625eSeeded on 2 Nov with 7 teams, then voided before any game was played: TuArtlez! withdrew from the contenders bracket, so it was redrawn with the 6 who remain.
Check it yourself

The ticket's numbers are positions in this list, which was locked before the draw (the teams outside the top two, in signup order):

  1. Black Sun
  2. Exec
  3. Apex
  4. Paradox'
  5. Cerberus
  6. team3

Read the numbers left to right and write down that team each time. That order fills the first round top to bottom: 1st v 2nd, 3rd gets a bye, 4th v 5th, 6th gets a bye.
