Zhonghuan Qisheng

    Keywords: Tournament

Taiwanese knockout tournament created in 2013. It replaced the Taiwan Zhonghuan Cup and Taiwan Qisheng.

In the first edition, 20 players participated in the final knock-out tournament (the preliminaries were ten robin rounds).

From the second edition on, the knockout section became very large, incorporating in that second edition what seems to have been 61 players.

In every version, the format has included some amount of seeding, but the manner of that seeding has varied. In some cases it would be better described as "anti-seeding" or "secondary preliminaries", in which only a minority of players were obliged to play in the first round.

See the [ext] Go To Everyone! section for more details.
