Elite League was split into three stages: Swiss, a round-robin group stage, and the playoffs. The top eight invites started in the round-robin group stage, while the next seven joined the nine qualifiers in the opening Swiss stage.

  • Swiss stage (March 31 to April 4):
    • 16 teams played out a full Swiss bracket; teams drew an opponent that holds the same record (e.g. 1-2 teams will play other 1-2 teams).
    • All matches were best-of-three. Three wins qualified a team for the next stage, three losses meant the team was eliminated.
  • Round-robin stage (April 5 to 10):
    • The eight Swiss qualifiers proceeded to the round-robin stage and were seeded into two groups with the eight invites.
    • All matches were best-of-two. The top two from each group proceeded to the playoff upper bracket, while the third and fourth began in the lower bracket. All other teams were eliminated.
  • Playoff stage (April 12 to 14):
    • The remaining teams played out the double-elimination bracket.
    • All matches were best-of-three except the grand final, which was a best-of-five.
