The field is officially set for COMC Bracket Battles!
After an exciting Play-In period, we’re proud to reveal the four tournament brackets. Congratulations to everyone who qualified, either by climbing the leaderboard as a Top Performer or by earning a spot through the Random Draw. We’re excited to see how the competition unfolds.
You can view the brackets here:
The action begins soon: Round 1 matchups will take place Thursday, March 19.
As outlined in our original announcement, winners in each head-to-head matchup will be determined by combined value of purchases and sales on COMC.com on matchup days. The participant with the higher total at the end of the day advances to the next round of the tournament. You can review the full rules and scoring details in our original post.
We’d like to congratulate everyone who made the brackets and thank all members who participated in the Play-In round.
Good luck to all competitors and may the best collectors win!
Seeding Details:
The brackets begin by ranking all participants by total value of sales and purchases from 1 through 64. Those rankings are then distributed across the four quadrants to balance the field. Ranks 1 through 4 become the No. 1 seeds, one placed at the top of each quadrant. Ranks 5 through 8 become the No. 2 seeds, again one per quadrant. Ranks 9 through 12 become the No. 3 seeds, and the pattern continues until all 64 positions are filled. Once the seed lines are distributed, each quadrant follows the standard tournament format where higher seeds face lower seeds in the opening round, and winners advance within their quadrant until a four competitors remain.
