Automatic bye handling
If the number of players isn't a power of 2 (e.g., 5 or 6 players), the bracket automatically assigns byes. Players with a bye advance to the next round without playing, just like in real tournaments.
Visual bracket display
The bracket is displayed in a horizontal format with rounds flowing left to right — from first round through to the final. Round labels automatically adjust (Quarterfinals, Semifinals, Final) based on the bracket size.
