REGULATIONS AND FORMAT

Matches​ can be conducted in one of two formats: 

​

3x3 Only:
- 3 Head-to-Head rounds of 3x3 in a Best of 7 Format (first to win 4 solves wins the set)
- Each team must declare a #3, #2, and #1 seed from their team
- #3 Seed from Team A will play against #3 Seed from Team B and so on
- A set ends as soon as one person has won 4 solves
- A match must have all 3 sets finished, regardless of whether a team has already won the match in the first two sets

3x3 + XX (tweaked version of Season 2 format):
- BOTH teams must come to an agreement to use the 3x3 + XX format and notify USSCL Directors at least 2 weeks before the scheduled match date, otherwise the 3x3 Only format must be used.
- One set of 3x3 must be completed
- Each team selects one event from the following list to round out the remaining two sets:
    - 2x2, 4x4, Pyraminx, 3x3 One Handed (OH)
- Teams do not need to indicate seeds
- Each set will be in a Best of 7 Format regardless of the event, ending as soon as one person has won 4 solves
- A match must have all 3 sets finished, regardless of whether a team has already won the match in the first two sets
- This option is not available for playoff/single elimination matches
