You're actually getting confused by the 'best out of 3' and 'playing only once' aspects of the system. Each match between two players would be best out of 3. First to two wins claims victory in the match, which counts as a single win on the tier. We can then use the specific result of the three games (either 2-0 or 2-1) as the 'score', which will give additional information about how the match went. A 2-0 win really does mean something different from a 2-1 win, and it'll be nice to have that officially recorded.
Regarding ELO and win/loss, we can have both stats recorded, but we'll have to pick one of the two methods as the official ranking method. Is ELO the proper method for that, or is it win/loss?
