4 Team Single Elimination Bracket
Run a 4-team single elimination bracket with two live voting rounds — semifinals and a final champion in one quick session.
Start here — build your bracket
Four teams create the smallest full knockout tree: two semifinals and one championship matchup. This page presets single elimination at four entries so you skip bracket math and open live votes immediately.
Ideal for classroom finals, office mini-tournaments, and stream segments that need a clear winner before the hour ends.
For single elimination events, confirm your audience understands the format before voting starts — especially if you are mixing casual voters with experienced competitors. A one-sentence rules recap at the top of the session reduces mistaken votes and keeps the bracket moving. Save a screenshot of the final tree for recaps, newsletters, or league records.
