Revision as of 16:20, 1 October 2023 by Botbuster (talk | contribs)

The championships for the NHRL 2023 season will be held on November 11th. This is going to be the 7th event in our 2023 season and consists entirely of invite-only brackets. In the first 6 events of our seasons, the top 4 bots in each bracket who did not already qualify for the championships get an invite.

Tournament Format

For November, we will run a special tournament format: a 3-round qualifier. The quick summary is: If you win 2 fights in the qualifier, you make it into the bracket. If you lose 2 fights, you are out.

In more detail, for each weight class, all bots will be seeded by rank and placed into a single group. In the first round, the highest seed will fight the lowest seed.

In the second round, all 1-0 bots will fight each other, and all 0-1 bots will fight each other. Any 1-0 bot that wins its fight will immediately qualify for the bracket with a high seed. Any 0-1 bot that loses its fight is eliminated.

In the third round, only 1-1 bots will remain. The winner qualifies for the bracket with a low seed, and the loser is eliminated.

Only 50% of bots will make the bracket. 2-0 bots will get the higher bracket seeds, ordered by original seeding. 2-1 bots will get the lower bracket seeds, again ordered by original seeding.


Qualified Robots

The following robots qualified for the championships in 2023. Qualifying means finishing in the final 4 for your weight class of all bots that have not already qualified in any of the 6 regular season events. In the event of a tie or a duplicate both bots will be admitted. You cannot qualify more than once.

Any bots who are not coming will be noted like this.
