Revision as of 10:24, 1 February 2016

The 2015 DominionStrategy.com Championships (DSC) is a 2 player online Dominion tournament organized by Dominion Strategy. This is the third iteration of the tournament, the first after the switch to Goko, and the first after the two year break of the DS.com Championships. The defending champion, Stef, also hosted the tournament, helped by Assemble Me and mith. 88 players joined the tournament, which began on September 28th.

Mic Qsenoch won the tournament, beating Titandrake in the final, 4-2.

Format and Rules

The tournament is a fully seeded single elimination tournament, meaning every round every player plays a match, with the winner advancing to the next round and the loser being knocked out of the tournament. In the first round, the top 40 seeds received a bye, leaving the lowest 48 seeds to play each other in round 1. From this round onwards, the bracket continues as usual.

A match consists of 6 games, with both players being first player three times to mitigate first player advantage. A win is worth 1 point, a tie 0.5. The first to 3.5 wins the match. If both players are tied 3-3 after 6 games, a tiebreaker is played. The tiebreaker is a game started by a random player, the winner advancing. If this match is tied according to Dominion standard rules, the second player advances to the next round.

As in 2012, an unofficial Losers' Bracket was organized, with Dunduks winning the final over gkrieg, 4-1.
