Rules

Single-Elimination

A single-elimination is a type of elimination tournament where the loser of each match-up is immediately eliminated from the tournament. Each winner will play another in the next round, until the final match-up, whose winner becomes the tournament champion.

Double-Elimination

A double-elimination tournament is a type of elimination tournament competition in which a participant ceases to be eligible to win the tournament’s championship upon having lost two games or matches. It stands in contrast to a single-elimination tournament, in which only one defeat results in elimination. Tournament structure :

From now on, all adult divisions will be double elimination.

Lutando competitors can compete in Gi or Nogi or both. Both formats operate in different rulesets.
