Qualifying: 5 rounds of two game banks, four player matchups and 7, 5, 3, 1 scoring. Each round the group of four players will play the two games from the selected bank. Tiered Swiss pairings and banks will allotted at random per each group. Top 24* will make finals(*depending on # of players, is subject to change), the top 8 will receive a bye in first round of finals if we take 24.

Finals: Consisting of four player matchups with the highest seed in the pairing getting to choose the bank for the group. Each game in bank will be played, entrant with lowest score on game is eliminated. For example if bank 1 is chosen, the four players play Deadpool, lowest score eliminated. The remaining three players play Dracula, lowest score eliminated. The remaining two move on to next round in the finals, with new pairings and banks once again selected by highest seed. When we get to final four, the highest seed picks the bank, when gets down to final two the highest remaining seed(of those final two) has the choice of picking the bank or game. If they choose a bank - the other finalist chooses one of the two games from that bank.. if they choose game, the other finalist will choose a bank and the higher seed getting to pick one of the two games from that bank.
