FAQ

Can I add more teams after generating the bracket?

No, the generator creates a static structure based on the initial list provided. You would need to update the list and regenerate the bracket.

What is the difference between single and double elimination?

Single elimination means a team is out after one loss, while double elimination allows teams to lose once and remain in the tournament through a losers' bracket.

Is there a limit to the number of teams I can enter?

The tool supports a wide range of team counts, though extremely large lists may require manual formatting for optimal readability.

Can I export the generated bracket?

The tool outputs the bracket structure as text, which you can easily copy and paste into documents or presentation software.

Does this tool handle seeding?

The tool generates the bracket based on the order of the team names provided in your input list.
