Playoff match assignments across the three boards, over three balanced weeks. Each wave is one match-slot — start the next wave as soon as all three boards finish. Waves are not clock times; actual timing drifts with match length (WB/play-in Bo3, Losers Bracket single-leg, finals Bo5). A wave never contains a match that depends on another match in the same wave.
