The tournament, formatted by Mortdog, will take place over the course of three days on the North American TFT server. All players from other regions are welcome, though. Mortdog and Doa will be the casters, with all the action beginning at 4pm CT via Giant Slayer TV on Twitch.

The first day will feature a total of seven games. Day two will contain five games, while day three will showcase the top eight players.

  • Day two: Five games with a 32 32 32 32 32 Points Reset.
  • Day three: Finals featuring the top eight players. The first competitor to 50 points or 30 points plus first wins.

  • First: 11
  • Second to fourth: 10
  • Fifth to seventh: 0
