??? both stage 1 and stage 2 are the same format

Swiss round for Champions looking fun

Isn’t the format same for both stage?

Both stages have the same format. I believe swiss format would be great for Val

Stage 1 4 groups top 2 each group goes to playoffs.
Stage 2 2 groups playins top 2 each groups goes to playoffs with 4 top seed teams.
What i meant by stage 1 was like masters 2 reykjavik, masters 3 berlin, and champs 1 mb. But reykjavik didnt have groups.

i think it would be cool to have to groups of 6 and top 4 of each advance. that way i think it's possible to guarantee that every region plays against every other region at least once.

Ohhh you should put it like that next time haha

Masters Berlin had the best format and the best slot allocation, they should’ve kept it at 16 teams

I do not like direct seeding into playoffs. I prefer that every team has to qualify through a group stage. Maybe you could give the top seed a bye in the group stage instead?

I do like double elim playoffs that's an upgrade.
