Triple Threat Match

A Triple Threat Match is a unique speedrunning match type that arises under certain circumstances where a one-on-one match will not suffice due to a tie in ranking.

As has become a staple of International Spyro Grand Prix (ISGP) tournaments, most matches are one-on-one; however, in some certain cases matches between three competitors will be required.

Forcing a Triple Threat Match
The most common way for a Triple Threat Match to occur is if three competitors in a Group in Round 1 of a tournament all have equal points. This can come about by three members all having two wins and one loss and the fourth member just having three losses, or the group winner having three wins and the other three members having one win and two losses. In most tournaments, the top 2 from a group will go through to Round 2 and as three competitors have equal points, a Triple Threat Match must be done in order to find out who the 1st and 2nd competitors in the group are. Essentially a match goal will be chosen and the first two to complete the goal will proceed to the next round.
