With this done there will be 3 maps remaining, these are the maps that will be played that current BO3. The player seeded highest will eliminate one of the 3 remaining maps, then the one other player will eliminate another. This leaves 1 map, which is the map that will be playes the first round of the BO3.
The player that lost the first game will choose the next map, which means he can choose between 2 maps.
The same map may not be played twice during one BO3 match.
Disconnecting and cheating/abusing
Any use of cheats (maphack etc.), intentional disconnection or bad behaviour may result in disqualification.
Further exploitation of the game's system that is not mentioned in these rules is allowed.
Any disconnection or desync occurring within 3 minutes after the match has started will result in a rematch. If a disconnection occurs 3 minutes or more after the game has started, the players may agree to do a rematch, or let the administrator decide the winner. Should the deciding of a winner from the replay be impossible, a rematch is required.
If an admin finds a player’s behaviour inappropriate or another problem occurs, it may lead to consequences, such as disqualification, even though it is not mentioned in the rules.
