In a match or map where one team or competitor starts with an advantage of one or more maps awarded due to the formatting of the tournament (for example due to one team coming from the upper bracket in a double elimination format), the match line will include the given advantage. If the advantage starts at 1-0, then map offering will start at map 2, if the advantage starts at 2-0, then map offering will start at map 3 and so on. If the advantage results from a walkover/default win awarded by an admin decision, this does not apply.
