Division Structure (Applies to Both Male & Female Brackets):

Each division will run independently through the same stages:

Qualifiers – Creators compete within their division to earn placement

Playoffs – Top performers advance into bracket-style matchups

Semi-Finals – Remaining creators compete to secure a spot in the division finals

Division Finals – The top two creators in each division battle to determine:

Male Division Champion

Female Division Champion

Grand Final:

The Male Champion and Female Champion will face off in a head-to-head final battle to determine the Overall Tournament Winner (Boys vs. Girls Champion)

Final Placement:

1st Place: Winner of the Grand Final (Overall Champion)

2nd Place: Runner-up of the Grand Final

3rd Place: Determined between the two Semi-Final runner-ups, based on:

Total wins across qualifiers and playoffs. Overall tournament performance. There is only per selected per cash prize

TOURNAMENT RULES

7-Day Qualifiers: One scheduled battle each night. Best 3/5. You need 4 wins to make playoffs.

Playoffs: Win and advance. Lose and you’re out.

No-Shows: Automatic ejection — no exceptions.

During Battle: The tournament is only between you and the creator you’ve been paired with for battle. During this time it should only be 1v1, no additional creators/supporters and no boxes are permitted. A loss will be given to anyone violating this rule and possible removal from the tournament altogether.

Refs: Look for the badge. They track wins and losses.

Conduct: Keep it respectful and sportsmanlike during all interactions. Any form of harassment or unsportsmanlike behavior = immediate removal.

All times are posted in EST.

Grace Period Notice: Allow a 10-minute window before reporting a no-show. After that, refs award the win.

All 7 nights of qualifiers are required even if you have 4 wins. Any “no shows” will result in automatic removal.
