1. Should mixed teams be allowed in the tournament, consisting of 1 player from countries where there are no other known players? If so, in what format?
- No, mixed teams should not be allowed. They should team up with other individual players from other countries (e.g., a team representing Asia, a team representing the World, a team representing Western Europe, etc.).
- Mixed teams should be allowed, but in this case, instead of a Best-of-3 (BO3) match, they should play a Best-of-1 (BO1) match against these mixed teams.
- Mixed teams should be allowed, but in this case, they should start with a score of 0:1 in favor of their opponent (as if the first player on their team didn't show up for the first game). They need to equalize the score first and then try to win.
- Perhaps you have a better option.
As an alternative, allow the team captain to include a player from another country in their team, provided that the player agrees to represent that team.
