Double-Elimination Tournament
A Double-Elimination Tournament is a type of competition where each participant must lose twice before being eliminated. This format allows teams or players a second chance, making it more forgiving than single-elimination tournaments. Participants are placed in a bracket, and those who lose a match move to a lower bracket, where they can still compete for the championship.
In this structure, the final match often features the winner of the upper bracket against the winner of the lower bracket. If the lower bracket winner wins, a second match is held to determine the overall champion, ensuring a fairer outcome for all competitors.
