Competition: BGL: Hearthstone Season One; Round Two

Welcome to Round Two of the Brotherhood Gaming League: Hearthstone!

This round will consist of a Group Stage and a Knock-Out Stage. In the group phase, all members who sign up will be placed into groups (size and number dependent on sign-ups) sorted by region (as well as possible). Groups will have a minimum of 4 members each. The group stage will last three weeks in length. Each member will play every other member in their group once and it will be organized by schedule.

Sign-ups will close Sept. 8th.

Matches not completed on time will be marked as two losses.

All matches MUST use Standard Decks.

Each match will be reported with screenshots to [Log in to view e-mail addresses] and [Log in to view e-mail addresses].

At the conclusion of the group stage the members who placed 1st or 2nd (and 3rd, if 20-31 sign up) in each group will advance to the bracket phase.

Ties will be broken by Head-to Head record between tied members.

In the Knock-Out Stage, the first round of the bracket will feature 1st place teams playing against a random 2nd place team from a different group (or 2nd place teams playing against a random 3rd place team from a different group with all 1st place teams receiving byes for the first round of the knock-out stage). The seeding of those match-ups will be randomized. The brackets will remain fixed up until the end of the bracket tournament.

The Knock-Out Stage will consist of a best of three, in which each participant MUST use a different class for each game.

Note: If there are less than 16 participants, please refer to the rules for <15 participants located in the Grandparent competition.
