Format at a glance

26 players, true double-elimination — once in the bracket, a single loss doesn't end your run (the play-in is single-elimination — lose there and you're out)
Seeds 1–16 enter the Winners Bracket; seeds 17–26 play a two-round play-in for four Losers Bracket spots
Winners Bracket & play-in are Bo3; the Losers Bracket is single-leg (Bo1); WB Final, LB Final & Grand Final are Bo5
The Losers Bracket champion reaches the Grand Final — and forces a bracket reset if they win the first set
Prizes: Grand Final winner = 1st, Grand Final loser = 2nd, LB Final loser = 3rd
No handicaps — the playoffs are played straight up. Regular-season form is rewarded through seeding, not marks on the board

What's new this season

True double-elim

Last season ended at the Winners Bracket Final and the Losers Bracket winner took 3rd. Now the Losers Bracket champion plays for the title — they reach the Grand Final and force a bracket reset if they win the first set. One bad night no longer ends your run.

Bo3 / Bo1 mix

Winners Bracket and the play-in are best-of-3; the Losers Bracket is single-leg. Keeps the marquee matches meaningful while letting the deeper bracket move fast enough to fit the calendar.

Three weeks

The whole playoff runs in three balanced nights (no separate pre-play). Weeks are evened out by playing time, not match count.

No handicaps

Unlike the regular season, playoff matches are played straight up. Your reward for a strong season is a higher seed and an easier early draw — not marks spotted on the board.

Three-week schedule

Week	Rounds	Matches	Waves
Week 1	Play-in (Bo3) + WB R1 (Bo3)	14	5
Week 2	WB QF (Bo3) + LB R1–R3 (Bo1)	16	6
Week 3	WB SF + WB Final + LB R4–Final (Bo1) + Grand Final	11	7

The weeks are balanced by time, not match count: the single-leg Losers Bracket lets the later weeks hold more matches per night. By max legs (≈ time) the three weeks run roughly 42 / 24 / 31.
