About

  • Underdog TST is a Retrocycles League community Team Sumo Tournament pairing experienced captains with developing players.
  • Each team consists of a team captain (coach) and 2 players.
    • The captain must be above 1900 ELO on the TST Leaderboard.
    • Each player must be below 1900 ELO on the TST Leaderboard.
  • Matches are played with a 1500 point limit.
  • Teams are seeded into lobbies to play a set (round of matches) and gain set points based on placement: 4 / 2 / 1 / 0.
  • If there is an uneven number of teams, unseeded teams rest for that set and gain 1 set point. A team rests only once for the whole event.
  • After each set, teams are seeded again by total set points (highest to lowest).
  • After an established number of rounds (based on sign-ups), a final match is played between the teams with the most set points.
  • Tie-breakers use individual scores — remember to screenshot the scoreboard at the "Match Winner" text.
  • Substitute players are allowed (they must still follow the ELO threshold rule). Once a player joins a team as a substitute, they cannot play for any other team in the event.
  • Discussion: Retrocycles Discord — #tournaments
