maps/order of play questions

Yoott:   The coin flip determines who gets to choose so its random. Also the winning team does not always choose to ban the first map, sometimes they want to be the one picking the role.   The team calling the coin is determined ahead based on the schedule that we publish to the teams at the start of the season with kind of a home/away setup.    The process adds a bit more gamesmanship to the whole night. I know teams that have lost matches based on poor map selection choices. So the captains or rep that is in charge of map selections has to be on their game by not only knowing their teams strengths but also the opponents strengths and weaknesses and be able to analyze and decide fast based on opponent choices. The whole map process takes less then 2 minutes max so it is super quick. (sometimes even faster, my slow clicking in the selections usually is the delay lol)    Thank You for watching and please always ask questions either here or directly and I will try to answer them for you as best I can.
