Description
This a multiplayer Overwatch tournament using 3v3 Elimination game rules. This tournament is hosted by the Experience Lounge team as a part of Gaming Week 2019. The tournament will be on Friday, Sept. 20 in the RR-2 Experience Lounge (next to cafeteria), starting at 10:00 a.m. (CDT) and ending at approximately 2:00 p.m. (CDT).

Game rules: In Elimination, both teams are limited to have only three players each. The goal is to kill all three enemy players. Players will not respawn in Elimination and their bodies will not disappear (meaning that they can be Resurrected any time). Each round will continue until one team has no members remaining. The other team will be the winner of that round and receive a point, and both teams will be prompted to select a hero again. This will repeat until one team has three points, winning the match. After 2 minutes without any team winning the round, an area will be marked. After another 30 seconds, the area will become a capture point that a team needs to capture to win the round.

Tournament Stucture: Three brackets, single elimination, two teams per match
Bracket 1: Qualifying - 8 teams, 4 matches
Bracket 2: Semi-finals - 4 teams, 2 matches
Bracket 3: Finals - 2 teams, 1 match

The winning team of each match will advance to the next bracket until they are eliminated or win the final match of the tournament.
