In a double elimination tournament format, teams or players have two chances to stay in the competition. If they lose a match, they move to a separate bracket called the loser's bracket. They can still compete in the tournament by winning matches in the loser's bracket, but if they lose a second time, they are eliminated from the tournament. The winner of the loser's bracket then faces the winner of the winner's bracket in the final match to determine the overall champion.
