      1. Match Setup: For all matches, four maps are available for play: Burnt and Ruined, Deceptive Calm, Lost Heritage, Tribal Wars. For the first game of a match, the higher seeded player picks the first map and selects their race before the lower player, announcing their selections in the Battlefy match chat.
