Template:Bracket

Renders a dynamic bracket for team vs team events. All match data is pulled from Cargo (via BracketMatch template) but can also be overridden with inline parameters.

Usage — GSL (4-team double elim)

{{Bracket
 |format = gsl
 |event  = My Tournament 2026
 |teams  = 4
}}

Usage — Single Elimination (8 teams)

{{Bracket
 |format = single
 |event  = My Tournament 2026
 |teams  = 8
}}

Usage — Double Elimination (8 teams)

{{Bracket
 |format = double
 |event  = My Tournament 2026
 |teams  = 8
}}

Usage — Round Robin (6 teams)

{{Bracket
 |format = rr
 |event  = My Tournament 2026
 |teams  = 6
 |team1  = GodLike Esports
 |team2  = Team SouL
 |team3  = OR Esports
 |team4  = Team XO
 |team5  = Entity Gaming
 |team6  = Blind Esports
}}

Usage — Swiss (8 teams, 5 rounds)

{{Bracket
 |format = swiss
 |event  = My Tournament 2026
 |teams  = 8
 |rounds = 5
}}

Inline override (no Cargo needed)

You can pass match data directly as template args (useful for quick pages):

{{Bracket
 |format      = gsl
 |event       = My Tournament 2026
 |Q1team1     = GodLike Esports
 |Q1team2     = Team SouL
 |Q1score1    = 2
 |Q1score2    = 1
 |Q1win       = 1
 |Q1bo        = 3
 |ELIMteam1   = OR Esports
 |ELIMteam2   = Entity Gaming
 |ELIMscore1  = 0
 |ELIMscore2  = 2
 |ELIMwin     = 2
 ...
}}
