2026 AWC Rounds and Results

I'm pretty sure there is a mistake in the pairings, I'm listed as seed 4 and sut is listed as seed 3, even tho im about 70 rating points higher seeded than him. Please correct me if I'm wrong but it appears like the pairings are messed up, also because they don't match the pairings on atomicpuzzles.org. Of course it would make sense to assume that atomicpuzzles.org has the wrong pairings, but as I said, I'm seeded wrongly on challonge so I suspect there might be a slight mistake there.

@RabbieR, @HowlinD Thanks a lot! That's exactly what I wanted. Blogs are in progress... (sadly I am very busy these days).

One more question to Howlin. Does the match between max and sirca already count? Seems a bit odd that we would predict for it :)

Yes, max-sirca has already been played, and counts. For predictions, consider it a guaranteed result.

@ReChesster vs. @RenaudMerle scheduled for October 31st, 20:00 UTC.
