Note that players have to be placed in the teams in the same order as their accounts are given by VXG. For example, if team sizes specified in the Developer Dashboard are 2, 2, 1, then the first two first accounts from this array must be placed in the first team, the third and fourth account must be placed in the second team, and the last account must be placed in the third team.
teams: Array containing specified team sizes.
