How many matches are in a 64-team bracket?

Sixty-three, over six rounds. A 128-team bracket is 127 matches over seven rounds.

Is 128 teams really free?

Yes. There is no team-count limit behind a paywall, no account, and no watermark on the export.

Will a large bracket print readably?

Use the portrait export at 2× or 3× for a wall chart, or export the schedule as CSV if a fixture list is easier to read than a tree.

Everything stays editable: type your own team names, set scores and dates, then export the bracket as an image — a PNG in three sizes, no watermark.

Sixty-four and one hundred and twenty-eight teams

A 64-team bracket is 63 matches over 6 rounds; a 128-team bracket is 127 matches over 7. Because both are powers of two, no byes are needed — every slot is filled and the first round is a clean 32 or 64 matches.

Counts in between work too. A 96-team bracket rounds up to 128 slots and receives 32 byes, which go to the top seeds.

Keeping a large bracket readable

The preview fits the bracket to your window and you can zoom and pan from there. For print, the portrait export at 2× or 3× gives you a wall chart instead of a wall of grey smudges.

For the venue desk, the schedule view is often more useful than the tree: one line per match, grouped by round or by date, exportable as CSV.

Large brackets are where seeding matters most

The bigger the field, the more a careless draw costs: put two strong teams in the same sixteenth and one of them is gone before anybody expected. Standard seeding spreads the top seeds across the bracket automatically.

Everything runs in your browser, so a 128-team bracket is drawn on your machine — nothing is uploaded, and there is no queue to wait in.
