TOP 16 RULES PT. II
Today we present more of the rules for TOP 16.
The whole tournament is going to be played by the classic cup ladder system. One loss ends a fight, with one exception. Those who lost in first round will go on to fight in play – offs. In the play – offs the contestants will fight for a chance to start in the next TOP 16 tournament. Those will be the 8 who lost in the first round.
The fighters will be divided into 4 pair, and the winners (same rules apply – armfight to 4 wins) will win a start in the next TOP 16. Those who lose will be replaced by the ones from the reserves list.
Two TOP 16 tournaments will be played in 2014, each of them consisting of 4 rounds. The tournament will begin in May and end in December.
The planned location of the tournament is Las Vegas, but there is also a chance it will take place in other locations around the world. Which ones? That’s a surprise?
