RHYTHM GAMES
TOURNAMENTS, LEAGUES AND RACES ONLINE

Organising an osu! tournament, a Beat Saber competition or a community rhythm game league? Blyzer makes the organisation easier, from player registration, through score-based qualifiers, to a 1v1 mappool bracket, results and rankings. Rhythm games are played for score, accuracy and combo – on PC (osu!, osu!taiko, osu!mania), in VR (Beat Saber) and on consoles and mobile. Blyzer handles high score competitions and classic elimination tournaments alike.

Why organise rhythm games on Blyzer?

Player registration

Players sign up via a link with their in-game name and rank, you just confirm the starting list or seeding.

Score competition

Players record their score or accuracy on the chosen map and Blyzer ranks them – ideal for qualifiers.

1v1 mappool bracket

A single or double elimination bracket like the osu! World Cup – seeding by qualifiers and automatic progression.

Leagues and seasons

Weekly rounds with a new map or mappool, running standings and an archive of all results.

Most popular rhythm game tournament and league formats

Rhythm games have two worlds: high score competitions and 1v1 battles on a mappool. Blyzer handles both – pick a format and set it all up in the wizard in a few minutes.

Race / score competition

Players sign up individually, play the assigned map (or set of maps) and record their score or accuracy. Ranked by highest result – the classic Beat Saber leaderboard competition or osu! qualifier, with no match schedule.

How to: Create race → Configure → scoring (more = better) → open registration → players record scores before the deadline.

Create score competition

1v1 single-elimination bracket

1v1 battles on maps from the mappool – lose a series (e.g. BO7, first to 4 wins) and you're out. Seeding by qualifier score, the same format as the osu! World Cup.

How to: Create tournament → Configure → no groups, play-off only → Seed players → Generate bracket.

Create single-elimination tournament

Double elimination

Every player gets two chances – after the first loss they continue in the losers' bracket. The standard for osu! community tournaments, where one bad day shouldn't decide the whole competition.

How to: Create tournament → Configure → double-elimination play-off → Generate bracket.

Groups + play-off

Players are split into groups, play a 1v1 series against everyone in the group and the best advance to the bracket. A clear format for 8 to 32 players when you want to give everyone more matches.

How to: Create tournament → Configure → number of groups and qualifiers → Generate groups → Generate play-off.

Long-term league

A multi-week season – a new map or a scheduled 1v1 round every week, standings with points. For Discord communities, VR arcades and school clubs.

How to: Create league → Configure → number of rounds and players → Generate schedule → enter results as you go.

How does it work for rhythm games?

  1. Create a tournament, league or score competition

    In the wizard, set the game (osu!, Beat Saber, other), the format – score competition, 1v1 bracket or league – and the number of players.

  2. Invite players

    Send a registration link – players state their in-game name and rank; announce the mappool or assigned map in the description.

  3. Record results

    In a score competition, players record their own result; in 1v1, you record the series score – Blyzer instantly recalculates the rankings and bracket.

Guides and FAQ

Rhythm games – FAQ

How do I verify the scores players record?

We recommend asking for a screenshot or a link to the replay or profile in the competition description (osu! scores are public, Beat Saber via ScoreSaber/BeatLeader). The organiser can adjust a recorded result.

Can I combine a score-based qualifier with a bracket?

Yes. Create a score competition as the qualifier and use its ranking to seed players into a single or double elimination bracket.

Do other rhythm games besides osu! and Beat Saber work too?

Yes – Taiko, osu!mania, Guitar Hero, Clone Hero, Dance Dance Revolution or mobile rhythm games. As long as the game produces a score or allows a 1v1 battle, it works.

How do I handle a tie on equal scores?

In the configuration you choose a tie-breaker – for example accuracy, combo or the earlier submission. In a 1v1 series there are no ties, you play to a set number of wins.

How much does it cost?

The basics are free – you can create and run a tournament, league or score competition at no charge.
