Play-In Los Angeles · Oct 15–18
4 teams (the lowest seeds from LEC, LCS, LCP and CBLOL) play for one spot in the Swiss Stage.
Double elimination: lose once and you drop to the lower bracket; lose twice and you're out.
Every series is best of 5. The upper-bracket winner meets the lower-bracket winner in the qualifier final.
Swiss Stage Allen, TX · Oct 23–31
16 teams: 15 qualified through their leagues plus the Play-In winner.
Every round, teams play an opponent with the same record (1–0 vs 1–0, 0–2 vs 0–2…), drawn at random. Round 1 is drawn from seeding pots with no same-region matchups, and no one plays the same team twice.
3 wins advances to the Knockout Stage; 3 losses eliminates. That takes at most 5 rounds, and 8 teams go through.
Matches are best of 1, except when a team can qualify or be eliminated (any 2–x or x–2 record), which are best of 3.
Your record seeds the quarterfinal draw: the two 3–0 teams each face a 3–2 team; the remaining four are drawn at random.
