2-Game Round Format
The 2-Game round format is a new way to play Swiss for Disney Lorcana! In this format, the focus will be on playing for points, rather than playing to win matches which also reduces the impact of winning or losing the initial dice roll.
2-Game Rounds consist of the following rules:
- A round is 2 games long or until time is called. (following the standard end-of-round procedures)
- A player earns 1 point for their ranking per game they win in the round.
- If a player wins both games, they earn an additional bonus point for a total of 3 points in the round.
- At the start of the match a die is rolled, the winner of this roll, decides whether they want to start game 1 or game 2 of their match. The other player will start the match that is not selected by the winner of the die roll.
Points awarded for each 2-Game round:
- 2 Wins: 3 points
- 1 Win each (Tie): 1 point
- 0 Win: 0 points
