Remaining 7 NA Bronze Bracket Opens Today

Published September 21, 2026

Remaining 7 Esports has a North American Bronze tournament listed for September 20, and its rule page offers a unusually detailed look at the bracket before matches begin. The event is a three-versus-three, single-elimination Power League competition with a stated capacity of 256 teams. Wendy is banned under the organizer’s event rules. The page identifies the format and map pools, while its accessible participant area has not yet supplied a verified lineup or results.

The organizer lists a start at 9 p.m. GMT+1, which corresponds to 20:00 UTC, and also gives a local Pacific start label on the page. Because the Pacific abbreviation printed there may not match daylight-saving time in September, the UTC conversion from the GMT+1 listing is the safer reference for readers outside North America. Entrants should use the live Matcherino countdown and the organizer’s Discord for the definitive local check-in reminder. The same page lists a check-in window before play and says that the Discord is mandatory.

The prohibition on boosting is explicit, with possible disqualification or a server ban if there is reasonable suspicion. That is a competition rule, not a claim that any named player broke it. The Wendy ban is also event-wide in the listing, distinct from the ordinary in-game pick-and-ban phase. A captain preparing a roster should read both the event notice and the standard Power League rules, not assume the ordinary draft screen overrides the organizer’s published restriction.

How the bracket changes by round

Remaining 7 describes an early phase labeled “BO1 of BO3” for the top 256, a “BO3 of BO3” phase from the top 128 through the semifinals, and a “BO5 of BO3” final. The notation combines a count of sets with best-of-three games within a set. It is important to keep the organizer’s exact phrasing when explaining the format, because calling every stage simply “best of three” would hide the longer later rounds. The bracket is single elimination: one lost series ends a team’s run.

The listed mode choices also vary by set. Set one draws from Gem Grab or Bounty; set two from Brawl Ball or Knockout; set three from Heist or Hot Zone. Later sets can bring back Bounty, Heist or Brawl Ball, then Gem Grab, Hot Zone or Knockout. The organizer says modes and maps are selected randomly from those published pools. That gives teams a concrete preparation list while leaving the actual match draw open. No particular map can be announced as a played result before it is selected.

Map planning offers more than a generic “practice everything” instruction. Gem Grab’s listed pool includes Gem Fort, Hard Rock Mine and Crystal Arcade. Brawl Ball lists Pinhole Punt, Pinball Dreams and Triple Dribble. Knockout lists New Horizons, Goldarm Gulch and Out in the Open. Teams can rehearse those named layouts and the mode switches across sets without pretending they know their eventual opponent or draft order. The mode groups become more consequential in a final long enough to reach sets four and five.

The prize page gives relative shares while its cash total can change: 50 percent for first, 25 for second, 15 for third and 10 for fourth. The percentages are the durable fact. As with the bracket, a participant field marked empty in one public view is not evidence that the event has been cancelled or that no one will play. It simply means the available listing does not verify a field yet.

The practical entrant checklist

A team needs accepted invitations, a correct linked Brawl Stars player tag and a captain who completes required check-in. The generic Matcherino rules warn that failure to check in can disqualify a team. They also advise leaving unrelated lobbies and ensuring match invitations can be received. For problems during play, the organizer directs teams to open a ticket in the Remaining 7 Discord; its instructions discourage relying on Matcherino’s “Call an Admin” button. Those operational details are not glamorous, but they prevent a rules article from becoming a hollow announcement.

For spectators, the result threshold is clear: wait for the bracket to show teams and completed series before naming a winner. Until then, the verified story is the tournament’s September 20 schedule, North American scope, format, Wendy restriction and published pools. The unusually specific rule sheet makes this a useful preview even without speculative favorites or invented participants.

• Check in through the organizer’s live tournament flow and join its mandatory Discord.
• Plan around the event-wide Wendy ban as well as the Power League draft.
• Use the named map pools for practice; actual selections and opponents remain pending.

Remaining 7’s September 20 event has enough published detail for teams to prepare: 3v3 Power League, single elimination, staged series lengths, a Wendy ban and specific mode pools. The bracket results are a separate matter. They should be reported when played, not inferred from a registration page or a changing prize total.
