Exhibition/Swiss then Single Elimination (two stage tournament)
The idea is similar to having Swiss then a Single Elimination Bracket. We run tournaments that have all participants play in 2-3 "Exhibition" games to rank everyone, then they participate in the Single Elimination Tournament.
We don't want all teams to play each other - that would take too long, so we cap the games. The teams are typically assigned randomly, but don't play each other twice in the Exhibition.
