Welcome everyone to the second iteration of the Rands Slam! A tournament circuit organised by the Random Battles room on PS! with the objective of covering the most relevant and competitive Randomised Formats that the sim has to offer. This time around, with even more formats! Throughout the year, the players will compete on 8 different Single Elimination Open tournaments with the objective of getting points and standing on top of the leaderboard as the top 32 to qualify to the Rands Slam Playoffs.

The point system is based on Grand Slam's: After the eight tournaments have been completed, the best 5 performances of each participant will be aggregated, and the top 32 players will be invited to participate in the single elimination playoffs tournament to determine the winner! For each Category B Open round you win, you will receive points for your record; Rounds 1-3 give 1 point, further rounds give 2. If you lose, you do not lose any points. Byes and coinflips do not count as wins, as such you will not receive points just for advancing to the next round with them; if you win that next round, only then the points of the previous one will be counted. Activity wins and your opponent being disqualified do count as wins, you will receive points as normal. RR 3-Player Finals give 2 points for each series won, but only for the deciding round (if there is a triple tie and the round is repeated, no points are awarded for the scratched round). Category A Opens function exactly the same but give x1.5 points.

Tiebreaker: If two or more players have the same amount of overall points (sum of best 5 performances), they will be sorted by Win %, then by their best performance (point based) on a single tour, then by their second best and so on. If two players inside playoffs are still tied, their seedings will be coinflipped. Doing a tiebreaker round in case there is a tie for classifying to Playoffs will be at the discretion of the hosts. (Because of how W% is automatically calculated, it will count yet-to-be-played series as loses for both players, so the W% will actually be displayed accurately once a player is eliminated or wins the tournament).

Playoffs will be seeded based on Standings (1st against 32nd, 2nd against 31st, and so on). It will be Single Elimination as well.
