Final Seedings, Player Restrictions & Match Generation

We haven't made any changes to the initial Seedings listed in our first Seedings Post on Sunday. However, we have made some minor changes to our Player Restrictions. We believe that the divisional spilt we crafted in the previous post as well as our approach for Player Restrictions is fair and within reason. Below you can view our modifications that have been made to player restrictions:

FIN Scout Restriction lifted.
Wergy Scout Restriction lifted.

We intend to generate Round 1 of Autumn '25 Highlander tonight so please ensure that if you're a Captain of any participating teams that you have joined our ozfortress Team Captain's Discord.

Map Pool Modification

We have reverted the Map Pool to it's first iteration, returning Product and Swiftwater to Round 5, with Eruption and Proot returning to Round 6. This makes it so that Premier will play all the maps in their 5-week Regular Season where as prior to this change they would of missed out on playing Swiftwater. You can find the full Map Pool schedule here.

LDU Qualifiers, Season Break & Playoffs Dates

If you need are confused at all you can still find the full season's set of dates including the break for LDU Qualifiers on the respective Highlander '25 and Sixes '25 Key Dates.
