3. A loss in the Losers Bracket will result in elimination from the competition.

If the 30 minute time limit is reached without a winner, the game must be replayed with the first capture winning the game.

For example, if Team A beat Team B 2 games to 0 in the Winners Bracket, the Best of 7 will resume with Game 3 and Team A leading 2 games to 0. If Game 3 of the Winners Bracket match was not played, it will be played first with host going to the team that would�ve hosted the game in the Winners Bracket. The lower seeded team will host the CTF Classic game in the Losers Bracket. The higher seeded team will choose to host Game 4 or 6. The team that won the 1st match will host the 7th game. The 7th game will be Team Ball Midship.
12. If teams in a Best of 7 Match are scheduled to play a game type they have already played against each other in the Open 4v4, the same game type will be played at a different map chosen by the Halo 2 Director and League Commissioner.
13. If a game should tie, the game must be replayed.

Undefeated, Open 4v4 teams will be seeded ahead of Open 4v4 teams that lose a match.
3. After losing a match, teams will fall into the Losers Bracket.
4. A loss in the Losers Bracket will result in elimination from the competition.

6. The higher seeded team will play as the Red Team for all games.
7. The higher seeded team will host the Team Ball game. The higher seeded team will choose 1 game to host. The lower seeded team will then choose 2 additional games to host. The higher seeded team will host the remaining game.
8. If a Team Slayer or Team Ball game should tie, the game must be replayed.
9. CTF Classic games will have an initial time limit of 15 minutes. If after 15 minutes, one team is winning and their flag is at home, the game is over. If, however, the score is tied after 15 minutes, the game will continue and the next team to score will win the game. If the 30 minute time limit is reached without a winner, the game must be replayed with the first capture winning the game.
10. If the initial time limit is reached in a CTF Classic game, the difference in captures is 1, and the winning team�s flag is out, the game will continue. If the flag is captured, the game will go into sudden death, but if the flag is returned, the game is over.

If Games 4 and/or 5 of the Winners Bracket match were not played, they will be played first with host for each game going to the team that would�ve hosted in the Winners Bracket. The team that didn�t host the Team Ball game in the Winners Bracket will host the 2nd Team Ball game. The team that won the 1st match will choose to host 1 Team Slayer and 1 CTF Classic/Neutral Bomb game. The team that lost the 1st match will then choose to host 1 Team Slayer and 1 CTF Classic/Neutral Bomb game. The team that won the first match will host the remaining game.
13. If the teams meeting in the Championship Match have not yet faced each other and the team coming from the Losers Bracket wins a match, the Winners Bracket Finals game types will be played to break the tie since both teams would only have one match loss. Before the start of the Championship Match, the team without a match loss will choose to have higher seed hosting privileges for the Championship Match or Winners Bracket Finals. (See Rule #7 for hosting privileges).
14. If teams in a Best of 11 Match are scheduled to play a game type they have already played against each other in the Championship 4v4, the same game type will be played at a different map chosen by the Halo 2 Director and League Commissioner.
