Points
By default, tournaments are set to work with points. This is the common score type for many sports, like football. The result of a match is always a single score or single set, like 1-0 or 1-1. You can set the amount of points that will be awarded for a win, draw and loss in group matches.

You can go to General > Group Ranking > Keep track of more points to create your own team statistics, like fair play. These statistics can then be used as tiebreaker criteria.
Sets
Sets are the common score type for sports like tennis or volleybal. The result of a match consists of a minimum of two sets, like 6-3; 6-1. If you set the number of sets to an even number (like 2), you can optionally enable a Deciding set. If you set the number of sets to an uneven number (like 5), you can optionally enable the Playoff/Best of mode.
You can award points in group matches based on the final result of all sets or per set individually. Sets can only end in a draw when you award points per set.

Multiple scoring types
Click on Add scoring to create a new scoring type. You can set the preferred type of scoring per phase, group, bracket or individual match on the Format page. This can be done by clicking on the edit pencil next to the name of the phase or element.
Having multiple scoring types can be useful for events in which you play a 'best of three' during group stage and 'best of five' during knockout stage, to name an example.
