When hosting an online Valorant tournament, we have tasks set up so your players can coordinate map bans and picks directly on start.gg!
Map selection for Valorant is dependent on whether the match is best of 1 or 3. You can change these in the round settings. Our default ruleset is listed below.
Map Selection Best of 1:
Teams A and B are decided randomly (this will happen automatically after both teams check-in)
Team A - Ban
Team B - Ban
Team A - Ban
Remaining map is the map that teams will play on
Team B will choose Attack or Defense
For DE bracket tournaments, we do not support tie or draw support. Please keep this in mind!
Map Selection Best of 3 (should be done before the match starts):
Teams A and B are decided by an internal coin flip. Winner of the coin flip decides whether they are Team A or Team B (the coin flip will automatically happen after both teams check-in)
Team A Picks Map 1 / B Picks Attack or Defense
Team B Picks Map 2 / A Picks Attack or Defense
Team A Picks Map 3 / B Picks Attack or Defense
