The following system was used for the map/mode selection:


 * First 3 maps are randomly generated with TO tweaking but follow the pattern of SZ-TC-RM.
 * If the set is not decided after the third game, the losing team gets to choose the gamemode and map for the fourth round.
 * If the set is still not decided, the team that previously didn't get to choose gets to do so now.
 * If one team is not universally better than the other team, the set will not end before the 4th game (this means every team will get to play the preferred mode twice every set).
 * For the Grand Finals and Bracket Reset, it will work in the same way. After the first 3 games, the losing team will select a map/mode combination, then the losing team after each game will take turns selecting a map/mode combination.
