Preamble:
- I'm going to be restocking Steam games during the Summer Sale, so make sure to let me know what you want! EDIT: I will also just get whatever game you guys want at the end of the tournament as well.
- The big news on this one is actually a question regarding structure from now on. I've been considering doing back to back tournaments at the end of the month, with the MRT on the Sunday and the other on the Saturday before. Sort of like how Impregnable's Faction War is set up. Would you guys be interested in that? Let me know!
- After this tournament, I think I'll do a Team Tumble for the next one. We haven't had one in a while. EDIT: There will be both a Beginner Tournament and a Team Tumble next month, so hooray \o/
- As a last note, I've had a couple people approach me about doing their own tournaments, and I completely welcome them to try it! I'll be able to provide the logistical support and tutorials as needed. Don't worry, it's not super hard or anything Check them out! They're all a little different from the "usual" tournaments I put up.

The complete set of information including Brackets and Participants are listed in the MRT 25 tournament page!

Confirmed Streamers:

Rules:
It's going to be a single elimination tournament and we'll play as many signups as possible.
Refer to the Codex Tournamentus 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 losing player'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 heroes first for the first match. Next game, the player on the bottom side of the bracket cell will lock in their heroes first, and the order will alternate like this until the final game. In the final game of the round, the losing player 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.
