How does a Waseda event work?

Each team has TWO members, which we will refer to as Player A and Player B.

Each team has a Player A and a Player B
Player A and Player B cannot play the same character
Player A of Team 1 plays Player A of Team 2 in a set
Player B of Team 1 plays Player B of Team 2 in a set
If both players of a team won their individual set, the team set is over and that team wins
Otherwise, the player of each team who won their set would play each other. Whoever wins that set wins it for their team.

The bracket is standard double elimination. If we have 16 teams or less, all individual sets between players will be ft2. 17-32 teams will have sets be ft1 till top 8, which will then be ft2.
