What happens next if you win the first round?

Post by CookieMatisse »

Sorry, very basic question here…. I won the first round of a turn-based tournament. What happens next? Do I automatically get matched with players for a second round at some point, and get a notification? Or do I need to do something proactively? It’s been a few days since the first round ended and I don’t see any new game invites or notifications.

You'll get automatically added to your second round game when all first round games have finished. This can take a while if you were particularly quick to finish your game compared to others (especially considering some games may have players who forgot they're in the tournament or something, and never urn up to play).

Use this link to check in on the status of all your tournaments:

If you're in a single-elimination bracket you can see how the game that feeds into the slot you're playing next is progressing to get an idea of when it might finish. If you're in a Swiss tournament, you can't start the next round until the entire first round is done.
