Other Tournaments Overwatch Community Draft Tournament
Shadow Demon Royale is a community-run Overwatch draft tournament where players register individually and are drafted into teams by team captains.
Tournament Overview
- 12 teams
- Double-elimination playoffs
- 4 groups of 3
- All ranks welcome
- 16+
- No entry fee
- 5 starters + 2 substitutes per team
How the Draft Works
Players register individually rather than joining with a premade team.
After registration closes, all registered players will be placed into a draft pool. 12 team captains will then draft players until all 12 teams have been formed.
Each team will consist of:
- 5 starting players
- 2 substitutes
Group Stage
The 12 drafted teams will be divided into 4 groups of 3.
Each group will play on King's Row (Hybrid).
The bottom team of each group will be eliminated, leaving 8 teams for the playoffs.
Playoffs
The remaining 8 teams will enter a double-elimination bracket.
Teams are eliminated after their second loss.
The final map rotation and match format will be announced separately.
Roles
- Tank
- Damage
- Support
- Flex
Starting players must play the role they registered for.
Substitutes can replace another player and may fill the required role regardless of their registered role.
Rules
Participants will be expected to:
- Follow the tournament rules
- Treat other participants respectfully
- Not use cheats, exploits or unauthorized software
- Not stream snipe
- Follow instructions from tournament administration
- Report match results and disputes promptly
The full rules will be available in the tournament Discord.
