Finals Map Selection Process

[Tin Bad]

Finals Map Selection Steps:

Teams are to use matchcomm to handle picking maps/banning maps.

1. The team with the upper seed (Home Team) will post in matchcomm with the map they don't want to play/want to ban.

2. Then team with the lower seed (Away Team) replies with the map they don't want to play/want to ban.

3. The home team will then pick the first map and post the selected map in matchcomm.

4. Teams will also need to schedule a time to play their matches using matchcomm.

For Round 2:
This time the lower seed team (Away Team) will choose the map and post their map choice in match comm.

For Round 3(If needed):
The upper seed (Home Team) will choose the map again and post the map in matchcomm.

Maps to choose from/Ban:
1. dod_lennon_b2
2. dod_railroad2_b2
3. dod_anzio
4. dod_harrington
5. dod_chemille
6. dod_railroad
7. dod_donner
8. dod_solitude_b2

Should make round 3 a third party choice. If both teams win one round, why let one of those teams get the advantage in the final final?


Just a thought.

Tiebreaker should be something totally random like dod_hill_classic or dod_cherbourg.

Is there a deadline on posting what the first map is? Seems kind of silly if you let the teams choose a map and practice it all week and then post it right before the match and have the away team do the same instead of posting both and practicing both.

I honestly think we should just do it in the server when we're about to play. Worked well enough for the Quake duel tourneys I've participated in. I mean, you don't find out what heroes your opponent is banning/picking in Dota 2 until you're about to play either.

Besides wisp which you can assume is being banned unless you're playing idiots.

Do we sacrifice the goat before or after the opening ceremony in anzio church? Sorry, this whole process has me a little confused.

I mean, selfish me, I want to actually practice the maps that will be played with the 6 people that will be playing in the match. This is DoD in 2013 and I'm not on gskill or thunder... we haven't scrimmed any of the available maps with the 6 people who will be in the server on Sunday and there's no way we're going to get to play all the maps between now and then even if we wanted to.
