As this match is a playoffs match, it will be played best of three maps. You have until Friday night (72 hours before default match time) to have your picks and bans done, if you fail to pick/ban your maps in time the other team may be allowed to pick for you. The configs for playoffs will be "exec rgl_HL_koth" for KOTH maps (best of 7, unless teams agree to play a bo5) and "exec rgl_hl_stopwatch" for stopwatch maps (best of 3, unless both teams agree to do a best of 1).

The home team Ceviche de tiburon will choose to be team A or team B. Map pick bans will be done in match comms.

The pick/ban order will be as follows-
A Bans | B Bans | B Picks | A Picks | A Bans | B Picks

Available maps are:
koth_product_final
koth_lakeside_r2
koth_ashville_rc2d
pl_upward_f9
pl_swiftwater_final1
pl_vigil_rc9
cp_steel_f10

Please make sure you inform the enemy team of all ringers you plan to use either through match comms or in a direct message. Refer to the ringer sections here for more information. Since roster locks have taken place, please remember that a player can only default ring once per team after roster locks. The ringer may still be approved by the enemy team. Default ringers only apply to the Main division and below.

Lastly, it should be emphasized that during playoffs, players will receive immediate suspensions for failing to submit POV demos, so ensure your teams are in compliance starting this week. You can read more about the system, consequences for this week and during playoffs, FAQs, as well as future expansions and improvements here.

Good luck and have fun this week, open a ticket if you have any questions!

This is also a reminder that ALL players on your team must record and submit demos for the grand finals match.

We want to ring this player on scout. Pretty much all exp above main was rosterriding on scout & engie and you can verify this with admins if you'd like to. They haven't actually played much above main. They have also been semi-retired for a bit and are out of practice. I think they provide a comparable skill to Majic and would be a fair ringer. DM me on discord if you have further questions about this player.

I discussed this with our team and we agree to deny. While your claims about them are for the most part accurate there are a few things we take issue with. Even if they did "roster ride" in adv/chal they have still played with and gained experience with players well above this div. There is even a recent log of them playing against the third place main team with advanced tryouts and doing quite well on scout. https://logs.tf/3245037#76561198180890982

I understand your thought process and intentions behind this ring but considering it is grand finals we inclined to be a bit picky. Since we are the only two IM teams playing today, I would imagine there is likely at least 1 default ringer you could find and we would appreciate it if you got one. DM me as well if you have any questions.
