What is a tournament bracket?
Tournament bracket is a tournament structure which is played via the knockout system. Bracket Tournament is a single-elimination competition whereby a participant or team will be leaving the tournament if they lose a game or match.
If a participant or team of the tournament wins a match, they will go to the next round or bracket. This tournament ends with a final which is played between 2 participants or teams.

Fill the next round with a number of self-chosen losers (lucky losers).
Automatically let a number of participants proceed to the next round.
You must enter the losers yourself in round 1 for matches without participants. We will then automatically enter them in round 2.
