How to place a team in higher place in brackets without playing with other teams? about brackets-manager.js HOT 4 CLOSED

Hey!

By default, if you have 8 participants, the matches will be 1v8, 4v5, 2v7, 3v6 because it ensures 1 and 2 will play after a few matches.

You can either keep that method of ordering (which is the default), or generate your seeding manually, for example:

• 1: 1st in 1st group
• 2: 1st in 2nd group
• 3: 2nd in 1st group
• 4: 2nd in 2nd group
• 5: 3rd in 1st group
• 6: 3rd in 2nd group
• 7: 4th in 1st group
• 8: 4th in 2nd group

And then pass seedOrdering: ['natural'] (documentation).

That's interesting, but not supported in the library, and I don't plan to support this.

The tournament you created is not a double elimination tournament, it's totally custom.

Backup screenshot (only winner bracket is shown):

• 4 round-robin groups of 15 participants each

  • 1st: 88-gaming, 2nd: ravens
  • 1st: Bomji228, 2nd: TJK
  • 1st: TEC, 2nd: kickers
  • 1st: 5kage, 2nd: TEAM32

• Double elimination with 16 participants in 1st round

  • Round 1 (16 participants): 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th of each group
  • Round 2 (8 participants): winners of Round 1
  • Round 3 (8 participants): winners of Round 2 vs. 2nd of each group
  • Round 4 (8 participants): winners of Round 3 vs. 1st of each group
  • Round 5 (4 participants): winners of Round 4
  • Round 6 (2 participants): winners of Round 5
