Beginners will currently be classified as have 750 hours or fewer. We realize that hours alone sometimes isn't sufficient to judge skill, so we reserve the right to filter competitors at any time before or during the tournament in order to maintain the integrity of a "Beginners" tournament. On the fence cases will be handled by me personally.

Rules:
Refer to the general rules thread for an overview.
I'm highlighting this section of the rules in case there is confusion regarding hero and map pick order:
Map Picks
Maps are always selected before hero picks.
The first round of a match will always be a fixed map as shown in the brackets. After this, the map pick will be loser's choice. Only maps in the map pool may be played to be considered a valid tournament match.
No map can be played more than once within a match. Each player will have the option to veto a single map during a match, excluding the first round map. Maps that are variants of other maps, such as Pale Tooth Gorge and Green Tooth Gorge, will count as one map and can't be selected in the same round.
Hero Picks
The player in the top bracket will lock in his commander first for the first round. In the next game the player in the bottom of the bracket will lock into their commander first (<- it will keep alternating for game 3 and 4). To check out who is on the top and bottom of your cell bracket, just see the Brackets page. If your name is blue, you're top of the bracket. If red, you're on the bottom of the bracket.
In the final game of the round, game 3 or game 5 depending on the format, the loser of the previous game will pick the map first and then their hero first.
