How to reflect duplicating a tree horizontally?

Question

I'm following the solution from this post to construct a tree using tikz-qtree. It's working very well as you can see on the image below.

enter image description here

The tree is to show the matches of a championship.

But I'd like to reflect (duplicating) the tree to show the other matches, that is, to go up from champion to the Finalist 2 and so on.

Here is my code:

\documentclass[landscape]{article}
\usepackage[margin=1in,a3paper]{geometry}
\usepackage{tikz-qtree}
\usetikzlibrary{shadows,trees}

\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\Tree [.Champion 
        [.{Finalist 1}
            [.{Semi Finalist 1} 
               [.{kk}
                 [. kk ]
                 [. kk ]  ]
               [.{kk} 
                 [. kk ]
                 [. kk ] ] ]
            [.{Semi finalist 2} 
                           [.{kk}
                             [. kk ]
                             [. kk ]  ]
                           [.{kk} 
                             [. kk ]
                             [. kk ] ] ]
                              ] 
]
\end{tikzpicture}  
\end{document}

@Qrrbrbirlbel, no. This changes the connectors. I want them like the figure and also going up, a kind of mixture of down and up. — Sigur, May 10 '13 at 00:21
Down and up? Huh. So, the nodes reflect the teams not the matches? You want the same tree mirrored to have a X-like figure? — Qrrbrbirlbel, May 10 '13 at 00:24
@Qrrbrbirlbel, yes, exactly. I want the roots and the leaves of the tree. — Sigur, May 10 '13 at 00:25
The placement of tikz-qtree’s trees are a little fishy (see How to position qtrees ). I’d propose a slightly different solution than Alan Munn’s but giving how tikz-qtree does (not) work, his may be the easiest solution in this case. — Qrrbrbirlbel, May 10 '13 at 00:39

You can do this more or less how Qrrbrbirlbel suggests (unless I've misunderstood what you want.)

\documentclass[landscape]{article}
\usepackage[margin=1in,a3paper]{geometry}
\usepackage{tikz-qtree}
\usetikzlibrary{shadows,trees}
\tikzset{font=\small,
edge from parent fork down,
level distance=1.75cm,
every node/.style=
    {top color=white,
    bottom color=blue!25,
    rectangle,rounded corners,
    minimum height=8mm,
    draw=blue!75,
    very thick,
    drop shadow,
    align=center,
    text depth = 0pt
    },
edge from parent/.style=
    {draw=blue!50,
    thick
    }}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}

\begin{scope}[edge from parent fork up,grow'=up]
\Tree [
        [.{Finalist 1}
            [.{Semi Finalist 1} 
               [.{kk}
                 [. kk ]
                 [. kk ]  ]
               [.{kk} 
                 [. kk ]
                 [. kk ] ] ]
            [.{Semi finalist 2} 
                           [.{kk}
                             [. kk ]

                           [.{kk} 
                             [. kk ]
                             [. kk ] ] ]
                              ] 
]
\end{scope}
\begin{scope}

               [.{kk} 
                 [. kk ]
                 [. kk ] ] ]
            [.{Semi finalist 2} 
                           [.{kk}
                             [. kk ]
                             [. kk ]  ]
                           [.{kk}

More or less. I would like to identify both champion nodes. It's strange to show that node two times. — Sigur, May 10 '13 at 00:28
So you mean you want to have a single champion node shared by both? Then just remove the yshift parameter from the second scope. — Alan Munn, May 10 '13 at 00:30
OK, it works. But in fact, it prints the node two times but overlapping so that the visual is what I want. Try to change the text of those two nodes, with different sizes. Then we can see both nodes. Every time when I change the champion team I'll need to change in two places. Maybe a command to its name is a good option. — Sigur, May 10 '13 at 00:41
I removed the duplicate node. The top tree now has no label. — Alan Munn, May 10 '13 at 01:01
