)BE4ST, teams of four coaches will compete against one another in six rounds of Blood Bowl. Each team member must select from a different tier.
BE4ST is a “Resurrection” tournament (injuries & deaths will not be carried forward to the next game). The first-round draw is random as are the individual matches within the team in round 1.
In all subsequent rounds teams will be matched using the “Swiss” system. From here on, individual matches within the team will also be allocated using the Swiss system.
Teams earn points as follows each round:
Team Win: 2 Points
Team Draw: 1 Point
Team Lose: 0 Points
A team registers a Win if they collectively win more individual matches than the opposing team. A team registers a Draw if they collectively win exactly the same number of individual matches as the opposing team. A team registers a Loss if they collectively lose more individual matches than the opposing team.
Teams on the same points during the tournament and for final standings will be ranked using a system of tiebreakers in the following order:
• Sum of individual points (2/1/0 for W/D/L)
• Net team TDs
• Net team Cas
• team kills total
For the individual prize, players on the same points will be ranked using these tiebreakers in order:
• Net TD’s & Net Cas combined
• Opponents score
• Total kills recorded (15/16 on injury dice)
