So the #1 seed w/ always be red in eliminations, #2 would be red,red,blue. If the #8 beats the red in quarters, it would be red in semis, red in finals. I'm pretty sure the brackets that are printed out at events have this color relation on them.

The top line of the bracket is always red. The bracket is as follows:

1--|
   |1 or 8|
8--|      |
          |1 or 8 or 4 or 5|
4--|      |                |
   |4 or 5|                |
5--|                       |
                           |   
2--|                       |
   |2 or 7|                |
7--|      |                |
          |2 or 7 or 3 or 6|
3--|      |
   |3 or 6|
6--|

Great replies all, thanks.

So yes, alliance #7 for example could find themselves QF3, SF2, F1 - switching after each (upset) win.

Or an 8-4 matchup in SF1 would have them 'both' switch.


This all makes sense, I just had never seen it written anywhere.
