Preamble:
The holidays made us way too busy to handle tournaments, but we're back at it this month! This will be another standard MRT, but I feel that for February, we'll be doing a 2v2 Team Tumble to help diversify the lineup.
Needless to say, all tournament games will be considered ranked games. We highly encourage players to run the ESL Reporter while playing in their matches!
Otherwise, there's not much to say on this one. Welcome to 2016!
General Info:
The complete set of information including Brackets and Participants are listed in the MRT 21 website page!
Date:Monthly Rumble Tournament #21 will be held on Saturday, January 23rd.
Time:15:00 UTC
Confirmed Streamers:

Max Power + Sir Lictor
The tournament will be played in the 1v1 format with Victory Point Control rules.
The tournament will be welcome to All Skill Levels.
The tournament will be played on the 2.4.2 patch.
Rules:
It's going to be a single elimination tournament and we'll play as many signups as possible.
Refer to the general rules thread for an overview.
Map Picks
Maps are always selected before hero picks.
The first match of a round will always be a fixed map as shown in the brackets. After this, the map pick will be the 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 round. Each player will have the option to veto a single map during a round, excluding the first match 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 on the top side of the bracket cell will lock in their hero first for the first match. Next game, the player on the bottom side of the bracket cell will lock in their opponent's hero first, and the order will alternate like this until the final game. In the final game of the round, the loser of the previous match will pick the map and then their hero first.
To check out who is on the top and bottom of your bracket cell, just look at the Brackets page. If your name is in the blue bar, you're the top of the bracket. If it's in the red bar, you're the bottom of the bracket.
