It is still open but only for Premiums because it has premium only 3 polymorphic games per round.

I have few comments now that you reached the sky with the amount of participants,
First, i think it would be best interest and keep the tournament not running for « years » if the tie rule would be just a single game to play rather than the full match.
Second, and it kind of relate to the above, the round limit is way too high if in addition match to be replay in case of a tie. Your initial setup was for +100 players which most of would have known those « high experienced » map & settings however since you walled hundreds of inexperienced players, after you decided to add a vision of a massive bracket style event, i would say it could represent 60 to 70% of this roster. If those player take 24hr to take turn trying to figure out and play less offensive, you could have a single game lasting up to 6 months! in case of a tie means another possible 6 months to get a winner going to the next round...a bit too long in my opinion, i can think of 30 round limit for every game could be a good compromise.
That same amount may have never play in tournament before, therefore they probably didn’t read the OP because the wall message mainly attract them from the prizes list and no talk about the difficulty of the chosen map/settings, this will bring chaos for them not having a clue on how to play such a setup. I’m not saying to change any map nor settings because it’s now too late to accommodate less hardcore setup for a event having that many people, but i would consider you think about those massive inexperienced player and put yourself in their shoes what they will end up playing
, same would applies to the seeded by score, they may enjoy the first round playing each other but the next would have them playing strongest player who may crunch them with no fun, adding the randomness of facing anyone would probably help, unless you are scare to face a strong player in Round 1
(just kidding).
Anyway, just wanted to share my « long experience » with tournaments and event and wish you success overall.

I agree with reducing the round limits. These games could seriously drag out. I like the full rematch though, takes away some elements of luck IMO.
I think the seeded bracket needs to remain, I know for myself I am not very experienced on most of these maps and part of why I signed up was because I'd have a fairly easy round 1 and possibly round 2 to learn the maps. I'm sure I'm not the only person who signed up in part due to the seeded bracket.

I understand your point about, so could be a best of 5 at the begin with to remove the issue, no « dragging », meaning a winner to be declare at the end of the match period.
