In Summoner Skirmish top cut, does the highest seed get to decide who goes first in game 1, or is it determined randomly?

Ruling: In top cut of Summoner Skirmish, the highest seed gets to decide who goes first in game 1. This was communicated directly to stores via email.

Nuances:

• This information was sent directly to stores rather than being publicly posted, which caused confusion among players
• This ruling represents a change from the previous practice where first player was always determined randomly
