VOD (will update with YouTube link when uploaded):
Basically, all eight players play in a private room, and earn points for their team based on placement. The twist? All four players on each team are in a call, and can give their teammates info mid match. This enables strats like leaving the bastion on 10 obby and having a teammate measure for you, among many other things.
10 seeds/matches were played, and the team with the most points at the end of the event wins! Point distribution was skewed to the give more points to the higher placements. The exact points are at the bottom the results image below.
