Is the double elimination thing the one with loser's bracket and stuff? And if it is as suggested, do loser's bracket's champion need to win 6 games vs the winer's bracket champion?
Yes, there are winners bracket and losers bracket. Lose once and you drop to losers bracket, lose once there and you're out of the tournament. The grand final between the bracket champions will be a best of 5 match as all other matches so only 3 game wins are needed.
