How does the bracket work?

Once the tournament starts, every team captain will have to check their team into the tournament. Check in times can be set within the bracket settings.

Once this is done, and the tournament starts, players will receive an invitation to the lobby of their game in the Brawl Stars app.

How does banning work?

The banning system depends on which “Brawl Stars” format has been selected in the bracket settings.

If Power League is the chosen format, banning will occur in-game. If the chosen format is “Normal”, then banning must be done by the team captain of each team on the Matcherino platform. Team captains can navigate to their “Match card” in the “Bracket” tab of the tournament.

I need to collect info from the participants. Can I do this?

How do I make it so that competitors must join my discord?
