Overall Journey of the Tournament

Here you can see the journey I mapped out before heading into designing the UI

Starting Off

One of the Concept Artists Samuel gave this rough idea he had painted previously and that I used to jump off into the flows and cases needed for the players.

Enter Screen

This is shown to explain the rules of knockout and the host can see the participants, who they can kick, mute and also increase the participant amount.

The room code is displayed as that is needed for others to join this room.

The start button will begin the tournament.

Kick Player

Kicking is a serious action so we make sure the player must really want to do it.

And the confirmation should it occur.

Tournament Screen

Depending on the amount of participants, then we move them into the relevant bracket column. Ongoing matches have a spectate button and matches that haven't begun are prompted to fist bump. That's how things are done in Blaston!
