Series 54 is a multistage tournament. In the first round 54 (or 162) players start in 9 (or 27) groups of 6 players. The best 2 of each group qualify for the next round. In the last stage the final will play the 6 best players of these groups.
Here is the scheme
- Round 27 groups of 6 players (162) - the first and second best will go for the next round
- Round 9 groups of 6 players (54) - the both best players qualify for the 3.round
- Round 3 groups with 18 players and again the best 2 players qualify for the final
- Round final group of 6 players
I like to start one Series 54 tournament with 54 or 162 players every month. The best players can fight in the season final.
If you like this ... come and join the Series 54 club. There you will receive invitations for the tournaments.
