In addition, Japan’s own ZETA Division will be playing the tournament. That being said, let us take a look at what format the games should be.
Format
The Format will be a Swiss System consisting of Bo1 rounds between all of the teams. There are eight teams in total. The top six teams will advance to the playoffs while the remaining two will be eliminated from the tournament.
Now, among the top six, the top two will directly advance to the semi-finals. They will also get to choose their semi-final match. The playoffs will be a single-elimination format. Every match in the playoffs will be Bo3 while the Grand Finals will be Bo5.
